Not only does it expand the John Wick universe more, but the stakes feel bigger and the villains seem more threatening. John Wick: Chapter 2 manages to pull off a really good sequel. Though John escapes and makes it back to New York, Santino has put out a seven million dollar contract on our hero to cover all the tracks.
On his way out, John finds himself double-crossed by Santino who has sent some of his weaponed goons lead by the mute Ares (played by Ruby Rose). In Rome, he finds the sister Gianna at a party, but she commits suicide rather then allowing an assassin to get her. John accepts the job knowing that saying no would only put his life in danger. When John refuses despite making a blood oath years ago, Santino has the assassins home destroyed. Santino asks to have his sister assassinated so that her brother can have her seat at a table of mafia heads. Like a lot of typical spy movies, John gets visited by Italian crime lord Santino D'Antonio (played by Riccardo Scamarcio)who asks him to come out of retirement.

After a great opening where he finishes his mission from the first movie to collect his stolen car, John Wick (played by Keanu Reeves) returns home with his new dog to try and find peace with his retirement and death of his wife from before. I was happy to sit and watch John Wick: Chapter 2. This has worked for John Wick, which reminds me of an older James Bond-type if the movie was more of a noir. Under a good direction, this can create a strong character. He has a more reserved, yet intriguing way of adapting that to his characters. I've always liked Keanu Reeves as an actor whether he's a metelhead from Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, a SWAT officer in Speed, or "a chosen one" from The Matrix franchise. Though I've seen plenty stories about revenge (The Count of Monte Cristo and Moby Dick being the prime examples), I can't recall one over someone's pet being murdered. I rented it on Amazon Prime and I was shock by what I saw a dark, stylish, and fun action movie that is doing it's own thing. Before seeing the sequel, I felt it was important to watch the first one.
As far as I'm concerned, I made a big mistake. I originally skipped out on the film as I felt that the trailers only showed an assassin story that I felt I've seen before. In 2014, a Keanu Reeves revenge thriller John Wick became a surprise hit.
