John Wick Steelbook (Novamedia Exclusive #4) (Korea)

[Troll2fan]

I'll buy the amaray and then just give it to a coworker once I receive the steel. I don't want to wait until May to watch this again.

I think anyone that's seen this will agree with me in saying that the review that was just put up on this site doesn't do the film justice. There are a lot of great qualities and nuances of the film that the review doesn't even mention. Ok, just wanted to throw that out there.

This movie is awesome and Keanu Reeves is badass. Looking forward to order it from Nova and see the artworks of the full slip and the Lenticular

Yep, I'm hoping they keep it to just two versions and not three, but I could see them doing two lentis and a full slip on this one. If they had six versions for this film i'm almost positive i'd get them all.

You dont read many reviews from this site do you?

I do actually, but I admit it's usually just for the A/V review portion. I only read the film review if it's something I've already seen.

Yeah, i enjoy the A/V reviews, but the movie reviews tend to leave me scratching my head wondering what movie the reviewer was reviewing.

That's true, now that I think about it, there's been very few I've agreed with or thought was spot on.

[Visionist]

On the fence about this. It might be awesome, like, say, Dredd. Or it might not...

I like Keanu but not for his oft-droll acting.

Hmmmm... surely Nova wouldn't roll out a Steel for a stinker?

The trailer had me hooked. Most, on here, who have seen it, have had nothing but good things to say about it. I wasn't able to see it at the cinema, unfortunately. Watching it tonight with the hubs. Can't wait!

Definitely in this case, this movie was awesome. I generally avoid the movie part of the film reviews on this site, a lot of them give away huge sections of the plot - some are almost an event by event description of the entire film. I thought one of the cardinal rules in reviewing films is *not* to give away any of the plot.

Movie would of been tons better if it had a better back story. I mean look at Taken 1, mad storyline! The action was 9/10 easily in John Wick. One of the best gun action films. But the reason for going on a rampage just isn't convincing enough for me.

[Jude72]

Watched this last night. I was challenged by a fiend who had already seen the movie to drink a shot every time there was a head shot in the movie. I didn't take them up on the challenge, LOL. Some cool extras on Vudu. Not sure if they're exclusive or whether they'll be on the bluray release. Still got a few to watch. Sounds like they had a blast making the movie.

That's kind of the point, no one but Wick fully understood why he was doing what he was doing.

[Show spoiler]Why do you think they repeated the line "It's only a f*cking dog" over and over, until it was almost comical? When he was tied up in the warehouse, he even completely explained why the dog meant so much to him and they still didn't understand.

The special features that come with some releases on Vudu always end up on the blu release. At least with about the last dozen or more movies i grabbed on there.

I'm glad I'm not alone in thinking this. I was beginning to think I had the most awful taste in films...

Very much so. I knew I would. Was sold after seeing the trailer. And I loves me some Keanu!

Oh well. I figured seeing as I was going to be buying a Korean version, I'd want an online copy of some sort. So grabbed some Vudu credits for about $6.50 on ebay and decided to buy. Plus...it was available to watch before release on the 3rd Feb.

Nice, good deal. Yeah thats why i end up getting so many movies off there, because most of the bigger titles are on there anywhere from a month to 2-3 weeks before release. Ive broke down countless times to get a movie early on there, just couldnt resist.
