Ballerina’s Best Action Scene Is As Inventive As Anything In John Wick

Yeah, I think spoiler warning have returned. Continue reading only while watching “ballerina” (or “John Wick: From the Ballerina World” if you are nasty).

Finally, more than ten years after the first “John Wick” movie arrived and wrote without delay how we watch action films, the series has experienced its first major screen extension to the franchise area. (Sorry Unfortunately forgotten pre -tv program “The Continental” from which you will probably hear for the first time, I will bet.) The question of that truly unnecessary The spin-off movie about a new character derived from one of the many colorful assassinations of Wick-Verse is certainly valid, and the jury will remain so far. But from MetatExtual, the idea of ​​whether or not the “John Wick” movie, which is focused on something other than Keanu Reeves, can be even more attractive.

Even the most cynical spectators are probably walking away from “ballerina” convinced that Ana de Armas keeps her own (and then some) in a new revenge -driven hero’s Eve Macarro, but Star Power is just half the battle in the “John Wick” movie. Adrenaline junkytes everywhere had to be convinced more than anything else The film from the director Len Wiseman (The well -known version of the 2003 “Underworld”, “Live Free or Die Hard” and “Total Recall” in 2012) could live on the high standards of the Chad Stiesk and David Leitch’s approach to the set of heaven. At least on the basis of this calculation, the audience can be pleasantly surprised by what the “ballerina” offers in all different series, which are emphasized for rubber bones, flame castlers, and perhaps most impressive of grenade bandolier. When the smoke is cleaned, what we have left is a set of smart, terrible and inventive sequences that we simply have never seen in John Wick.

When leaving relatively straightforward Keanu Reeves -led thrillers, “ballerina” breaks down into almost episodic segments over the long period. The first task we see is Eve Macarro’s debut on the field, and its mission is to protect the young woman (actress Sooyoung Choi) from her own wealthy and powerful father. This brings a recent recruitment of Ruska-Roman to one of the most spectacular places in the entire franchise area: a freezing nightclub, which is practically carved right from the ice. Combined with a complication that we need to use rubber bones, Eve will immediately face the challenge, unlike John Wick ever had to face.

This was a very matter, as director Len Wiseman explained /Film Ben Pearson in a recent interview. “Say he had a gun in the club. It seems like we’ve seen something before,” according to Wiseman. A weapon that shoots only rubber devices is definitely a long way to increase the excitement and stakes, setting our beginner’s protagonist defending and resulting in a series where he or she is punished as often as he or she has to take it. Compared to a ruthless machine, which is typically, armed with bullet -resistant costumes and seemingly endless supply of weapons, “ballerina” quickly determines how this character could not be more different than the legendary Baba Yaga.

However, it is not all that the block has to offer. Flame throws The battle has splashed in the whole marketingAnd for a good reason. The film gets a ton of mileage from a slow flame that eats everything (and all) on their path, and as it turns out, it was completely practical. Wiseman continued to tell /movie about how creative team arrived in this series: “One of the things that really was [important] He always strives to do something different that we have not seen. So we have seen a flame throw in the action movie here and there, but never in a setting, a close quarter, indoors, just setting up with flame throwers. “If” John Wick “films have always felt that the elemental forces of” ballerina “films” as “baller” take. But even this exercise with extra pieces compared to the best episode of the whole feature.

Who could ever have imagined that a Russian gangster that kills a puppy in cold blood more than 10 years ago would eventually lead to a raw and explosive grenade battle you’ve ever seen in a movie? The “John Wick” franchise has taken incredible twists and turns over the years, but its overwhelming success ultimately made it possible that “ballerina” would arrive on the site and on stage for a complex and exciting song, as we have ever seen in these films before. Go over, John Wick and all your perfectly placed headdress. Grenade festival order that is roughly present in the middle of the “baller” may only compete what is in the main line series to offer-but That emptied knife battle “John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum”.

The most innovative battle in “ballerina” comes when we least expect it. Throughout the series, weapons Sommelier have always offered a fun break when Wick goes shopping for the most deadly products. In this case, a modest scene typically changes suddenly to chaos as the arms range from a massive attack on the safe state protected by the continent and forces Eve to come up with a truly inspired improvisation bits to survive. Bottle coached to an underground bunker, which serves as a weapon cache, Eve will eventually pick up his selected weapon: Grenade Bandolier. Since then, viewers will be subjected to one of the bloodiest and most beloved battles that Wick-Jae has ever released. Explosive doors, tables, and even his enemies have perfect opportunities for carefully placed grenades to cause as much damage as possible. The only more fascinating thing than this confusion, as it turns out, is how this sequence comes from. According to Wiseman:

“Yes, we have seen grenades in action films before, but I placed this under the name,” What if it was a snowball battle, but with grenades? Also indoors, with a close series. “So then it creates a scene that is completely new.

It is safe to say that this is exactly What kind of activities do we want from “John Wick” movies. Our full Len Wiseman interview should be checked in fullAnd “ballerina” is now playing in theaters.
