But there is only so long you can keep saying, 'yeah, but the action is great.' And even though the action is great, it is starting to get a little tired. There are only so many ways John Wick can get his ass kicked before rallying round and vanquishing his enemies using a variety of different weaponry.

The storyline is dire. This is the world's greatest assassin; a ghost who can spirit away the lives of you and all your family and contacts without leaving a trace behind. Yet his reaction to being made excommunicado by the high table and having a £14m bounty put on his head? Of course, to walk, run or horse ride straight down the middle of some of the busiest streets in the world. Smart.

Do yourself a favour - fast forward past any dialogue or storyline (luckily, there is scant little) and just enjoy the cartoon violence of the fight scenes.
