A big hit in theatres recently, John Wick Chapter 2 continues the story of John Wick’s artistic world of assassins, underground organizations, and deliciously action packed plot line. While most of you enjoy what looks to become a high grossing film trilogy for little more than its artistic and entertainment excellence, there is a deeper message that beautifully eludes the consciousness of most viewers as well as the leftist Hollywood establishment.
Like The Matrix, this film series seeks to subtly insinuate cultural memes into the population in a way that may organically take years or even decades to fully foment. In the case of The Matrix, society was gifted with the notion of the “blue” and “red” pills and all the corresponding depths of meaning behind these terms. This one film trilogy that started in the late 90’s is now seen as the catalyst for society’s recent awakening to the Orwellian control system that surrounds us.
However, while the Matrix trilogy is set to a somewhat depressing and insidious atmosphere that painfully awakens us to the decaying society around us, John Wick presents to us a wacky alternative world where almost all controls are let loose and humans are free to live by their own accord. In essence, one could argue that the Matrix trilogy identifies an ugly problem, while the John Wick trilogy presents one possible solution.
An in-depth analysis of the John Wick series can easily span an entire literary thesis numbering in the hundreds of pages, and no respectable ROK writer, myself included, would ever subject our valued readers to such anguish (or hedonism, depending on the reader). So without further adieu, here is a brief and condensed analysis of the ways in which the John Wick film series unabashedly conveys notions of K-selection and masculinity.
The K-selective protagonist
John Wick, played by Keanu Reeves, is not presented to us as some pretty boy ‘roided up Jersey Shore caricature that serves the sexual and emotional interests of women on all fours while the wind blows through his golden blonde hair. No, the directors present to us a man of good stature, fit, somewhat to the leaner side, and with a half Asiatic face of limited expressions, sporting full facial hair.
He is devilishly skilled in anything to do with violence and little else, and has a passion for classic muscle cars. John Wick is not a play boy, and the directors made sure to show that neither is he a man that attracts ample sexual attention from females – not because he is unattractive to them, but because every female character he chances upon in the films read loud and clear that he is not interested in catering to their whims or sexual needs, and that pursuing him would be a futile endeavor.
He is a man of “focus, commitment, and sheer will” who puts his goals ahead of everything else. He is not interested in spiking women’s emotions in order to con them into bed, and he is most certainly not interested in dancing around like an r-selective monkey to capture anyone’s attention.
Even the choice of Keanu Reeves as the actor, a man with a complicated personal life in the real world and a man gifted with an extra dose of genetic K-selection from his Asiatic roots, speaks volumes about the direction of this film series from the get go. The director screams at us quite succinctly: John Wick is not a sexy hero. He is the silver backed gorilla that will fuck you up if you get in his way.
There is no meaningful state
The world of John Wick is set in a parallel universe where it seems the only element missing is an overbearing, bureaucratic state. Assassins roam freely on the streets and perform contracts with impunity. The law is not enforced by any state authority, and codes of behavior are simply a gentlemen’s agreement, the violation of which at times result in retribution by the faulted.
In fact, the only police officer we see is Jimmy, the fearful and incompetent non-contributor who quivers at the very sight of Wick. My take is that the directors intended to portray a world that cleverly flips the victimhood mentality and fetid Slave Morality of our modern West on its head, and instead embraces individual choices and consequences, and an overarching Master Morality.
In the first movie it appears that the Russian Tarasov family essentially controls significant shares of the city’s economy with no consequences with the authorities, while Winston and The Continental harbor assassins openly. In the second movie we see that the Italian D’Antonio family holds significant power in society and operates, once again, with complete immunity from the law. Even the currency of exchange in both films is focused around the gold coins issued by The Continental, which is difficult to interpret in any way aside from a direct and blatant snub at our real world’s fiat currencies.
On a side note, it is interesting that the story line chose the Russians and the Italians – both white cultures known to be incredibly traditional and patriarchal – as a subtle insult to the weak and impotent image of the modern Anglo Western man. The city of New York is symbolic of the crown jewel of Western civilization, and its “corruption” by these powerful forces of masculinity, small government, and Master Morality is a clever and underhanded snipe at our modern Western Society.
Violence is the way of men
Without elaborating too much, I think this point is self-explanatory for anyone that has seen so much as even the promos for the movies. The film series is clearly of the action genre, and violence is deliciously scattered across the very fabric of its plotlines.
What is interesting to note is that violence is not portrayed horrifically, but rather artistically and, dare I say, beautifully. We almost get the feeling that the directors wish for us to nod our heads in agreement by the end of the movies and say, “yeah, violence seems like a nice and clean way of dealing with your problems”.
The nature of men is violent. Morality is indifferent towards the existence of violence, and moral questions revolve around the correct or incorrect usage of violence, not the existence of violence itself. This point smacks directly in the faces of beta pacifists that derived their morality from quinoa.
Walk, talk, and DRESS like a man
Try to find a meaningful character in the film series that is not dressed impeccably – be it casual or formal – and I’ll take my hat off to you. The world of Wick is not subject to the same degeneracy in the realms of fashion and art as is our world. As a result, the presentation of a man organically becomes masculine.
From Wick himself to the various antagonists, a suit jacket and tapered pants are the bare minimum of what is expected. Heck, even the scores of henchmen Wick dispatches are seen wearing full suits with balaclavas. The message is clear: kill in style, and die in style.
Additionally, the film series does not appeal to the egotistical whims of juvenile boys in hoodies that brag about how much they “day game”; it appeals to our deep and often times suppressed feeling of respect and awe towards men that show exemplary qualities, civility, and material success. There is a right and wrong in beauty, and John Wick’s opinion will not be swayed no matter how autistically the fashion community screeches.
Women are inferior to men
One of the most notable features of the film series is the position of women in the hierarchy of both power and competence. Yes, there are female assassins, but this is merely a tasteful nod to the notion of equal opportunity, not equal outcome.
In the first film, the assassin Perkins makes a failed attempt to kill John even with the unfair advantage of breeching the rules of The Continental. Not only is she allowed to seem blatantly incompetent as an assassin, but also the almighty pussy pass does not water down the consequence of her transgression as it would in the real world. The satisfying scene of Winston revoking her membership by literally gunning her to death should send shivers down the spines of all mangina judges in the legal system that too often sympathize with women.
In the second film, Ruby Rose’s character Ares is presented to us as a formidable foe that commands the entirety of D’Antonio’s small army. However, far from a Wonder Woman feminist wet dream, Ares is portrayed as an incomplete woman as she is mute and somewhat androgynous.
She painstakingly makes up for her lack of feminine sexual market value by overcompensating with superb combat skills and undying loyalty towards her superior, Santino D’Antonio. In the knife fight with John, she puts up a very short and fruitless contest, and is quickly killed by the protagonist.
I cannot help but feel that this scene was produced as a direct contrast to the lengthy and difficult fight John experienced with the male assassin Cassian. Aside from the female assassins, all other female roles are relegated to clerical (accounts payable) or sexual entertainment (Circle Nightclub), signifying their insignificance in the affairs of men.
K-Selective music themes
Without embarking on a critical analysis of the musical content of this film series by getting unnecessarily technical with things like the pan-diatonic elements of the general melody, or how such and such crescendo underscores such and such themes, let us quickly explore its two most notable lyrical pieces, namely “Killing Strangers” by Marilyn Manson and “Plastic Heart” by Ciscandra Nostalghia.
Aside from being great songs to play at a medium-loud volume while your driving your S550 Mustang GT, these songs hold some pretty subversive K-selective messages.
Killing Strangers:
This world doesn’t need no opera, we need it for the operation
We don’t need a bigga knife (a bigga knife)
‘Cause we got guns, we got guns, we got guns (we got guns)
We got guns, you betta run (ya betta run, ya betta run, ya betta run)
We’re killin’ strangers, we’re killin’ strangers
We’re killin’ strangers, so we don’t kill the ones that we love…
The notable theme here is the glorification of guns. But a deeper meaning that betrays the heavily K-selective theme of this song is found in the lyrics “we’re killing strangers… so we don’t kill the ones that we love”. Take it how you may, but I see reference to in group preference and the protecting of those around you, even at the cost of eliminating some strangers.
Plastic Heart:
You are the shark
You hunt me like
Your last goodbye
Oh fallen angel
Of the night
Just take my heart
Just rip it out
This holy skin
It’s falling out
I lay my body
On the bed
One day, someday
You know I will see you again”
I put my hand against your plastic heart
No, suicide is not the plan, stand up
Even the stars are trapped inside, oh my
There’s nothing left to hide
There’s nothing left to die
There’s nothing left to die…
Now while I may not be a literature major from the University of Oxford, it doesn’t take much literary sensitivity to see that the feminine voice of the song unashamedly submits to the abstract male presence she sings about.
Lines such as “just take my heart, just rip it out” cannot be mistaken for anything other than total submission to a stronger and, dare I say, somewhat mysterious and damaged male persona. This is the ultimate siren call to the alpha male by the music id of the female as she simultaneously exults her loyalty and feminine support in “One day, someday, you know I will see you again”.
Why you should watch John Wick movies
A culture is defined not only by its customs and laws, but also by its art and how its art appeals to its people. Civilization was never defined by an Orwellian, legalistic society, but rather the general zeitgeist of its people when it comes to the abstract appreciation of the world.
The John Wick film series is a powerful piece of art in the cultural war. It exists among notable beacons of true artistic excellence in a society where vomit on a canvas is considered high painting, and 90lb women beating up Russian wrestlers is considered empowering. Everyone who has swallowed the red pill should watch the two movies.

I love the John Wick films…but the film below? Not so much (click to enlarge).

That’s a good one!
Grazie my friend!
The Seth Rogan/Johnny Orbits piece was a nice touch, lol.
Thanks…I was gonna stick a “z” on the end of Orbit to make it more Jewish…but…”Next time.”
Ha ha, really one of your best. I laughed long and hard!
Spicynujac !!!! Where you been brother ??
hes been:

Ha ha. Hey my friend! Been mostly tuning out after the Trump election, there was so much cringy excitement for someone a bit nutty who I really felt was going to let us down. But I’m back now.
Got out of a bad business situation, and now I am extremely free, been hitting the gym, making good money working mostly online, traveling, and looking to visit some new pussy paradises soon! How are you?
Good to hear !! The Trump stuff is getting better ( or worse depending on your point of view…). The God Emperor is unhinged lately. Have you seen the vid of him doing the WWE smackdown of CNN ?? omg…..
NO ROK thread is complete without the input from SpicyNujac , which btw is the best handle on the internet…
Ha ha, I heard something about it, figured it was Fake News. But Nothing’s Shocking anymore, right? I guess we already had our black president, so maybe Trump is the real President Comacho!
I was extremely proud of the alt-right and many groups I respect completely dropping their support for Trump after he attacked Syria. I was pleasantly surprised that these various groups I respect were so principled–it’s a rare thing and is a sign of the conviction of our morals. I saw so many hypocritical friends who supported Obama continue to make excuses for him no matter how much his actions violated his own words, and their values.
Thanks bro!
What about the interview https://youtu.be/rDX1qaTgJcc
Thumbs up for the Marilyn Manson reference.
Series? Is there gonna be a third one? That would be cool.
There has to be, the second one ended on a huge cliffhanger.
Nice! I’ll watch the films soon. This article is quite the contrast to the previous one. I dig this fashion sense!
On a side note, I can’t help but notice Reeves always looks serious. He never smiles. I guess he got mentally scarred after watching Sandra’s bollocks…
Ikr? Pretty sure most men would rather look like an assassin instead of some prancing pop star.
Keanu Reeves is one the few in Hollywood than i can respect. The guy had a very though life full of personal tragedies, but still never pursued a logic of hypocritical condescending towards others, rather a very simple and low key life.
Yep, I hear hes very generous with his money, not big into the limelight…respek
If he’s 50, I wanna be 50. Meanwhile I’m just 34 with thinning hair and a shot metabolism.
A lifetime of taking care of yourself pays off during these years in life. The hard part is when you’re in your 20’s and 30’s and all of your friends are out partying, having fun, going to feasts, doing the eat, drink and be merry thing while you’re toiling in the gym or watching what you eat. By mid 40’s though? You’re in great shape, haven’t aged, are successful in life and the ladies swarm to you like a magnet, meanwhile your friends are now old, busted, on high blood pressure medicine, some have already started down the surgery prescription path and they just look….beat…tired….sad.
It is far easier to stay in shape than it is to get in shape.
It’s what keeps me hitting the gym almost every day.
Not implying I’m ugly, fat, or not getting any action (far from it). I’m just looking like the majority of men my age now. Hair volumes 1/2 or 1/3rd of what they were on top, slightly duller skin, and really having to watch their sugar, carbs, and calories otherwise the weight gain is now immediate and relentless.
Keanu is drinking some kind of witches brew I’m tellin’ ya.
Would you be so kind as to describe the ladies that will be swarming like a magnet?
i think he’s half asian
so Wally P would be half interested in dating him?
I’ve been compared to Keanu before, and considered anywhere from under
21 to over 50. Apparently I have an ageless quality.
If you look old when you’re young, you won’t look old when you’re old because you won’t have changed much.
A factor in aging isthe location of your vital genetic information along your DNA. A fair portion of aging is genetic decay. As cells reproduce they cut a bit off the DNA strand end. Humans have adapted to this with a structure called a “telemere”, which is genetic leftovers (Human genome project found this, bout 70% or something like that of our genes) that act as a buffer for DNA decay.
You got that right. I’m almost 50 and people think I’m around 30.
All that shit where guys are all fat and jacked up is under the same rules that stand for women. All that partying takes a toll. Period. There is no way around it. Except that women can paint themselves (then refuse to date men for things they have no control over, like height).
You are right about that “swarming like a magnet” thing, but unfortunately when all the women are almost 50 too, it’s quantity over quality big time. They find out about my age and suddenly they think they have a shot at me even thinking of touching them with more than a borrowed 10′ pole. But they, meanwhile, are screwed up from too many years of prescription meds, boxed wine, and tubs of ice cream.
It shows.
In the end, all it took for me were these things:
– daily exercise like a run or some freehand stuff. I have not been inside of a gym in nearly 10 years when I had a membership and before that, only sporadically because it was cheap. No “heavy bombing with weights” the body was not made for that and it only ages men from overuse. I also do martial arts.
– no high fructose corn syrup. I call it “magical obesity potion”.
– no artificial sweeteners, like aspartame for example. That stuff takes magical obesity potion and amplifies it. The most horridly fattest people I ever met (who were in their 20s no less) had CASES of diet cola in their refrigerators.
– no sodium nitrite and other nitrates. If the additive looks like it came from a lab, stay off it.
– no tap water. For the last 20 years I have not drank water from the tap. Municipal water is pure garbage. I have had nothing but well water. When I go to a public well to fill up by large bottles, there is always a line consisting of Asians and what appear to be Russian/general Slavs. THEY KNOW. Rarely is there a fat one.
– stay away from soy. Period. Even an organic and properly fermented soy is bad for you like say eating too much mint would be. But soy in the “American form” is GMO-sourced processed crap that I like to call “magic tranny potion”.
– only grass fed beef and only dairy products from cows that have not been shot up with chemicals. There is a kind of double whammy here: the average fattus americanus just consumes that hormone-laden dairy from cows that are shot up with hormones and milked 3-4 times a day. Then after around 4 years when that cow is ready to drop dead, they push it up a chute in the slaughter house. Now, what kind of meat is that going to be? You guessed it. And the same hordes of fat fucks who drink that poison milk will eat that meat too – along with the other crap (then wonder why they get fat but they are also stupid too).
And finally, the most confusing part:
– a highly estrogenic diet.
Wait, estrogenic? Yes. Here is the reason: all that “I need more T” and then go bounding off for T-boosting supplements and foods is bullshit. It’s marketing.
Men produce more estrogen than women, What do we do with it? We convert that to T. So when it is said a man “has less T when he gets older”, it’s wrong. What he has is less overall hormone production because he’s getting to the end of his shelf life. You don’t grow tits from what you eat any more than growing muscle, but the plant estrogens are actually “overall” hormonal building blocks that the male endocrine system will utilize to maintain a greater overall hormonal profile and hence produce all the T the body needs. The other way, even for a generally unhealthy man, is a bad idea. There are two levels of poor hormonal health for men:
1. Screwed up T because of chemicals in plastics and environment PLUS screwed up progesterone. This means that when he gets exposed to the estrogen-mimicking chemicals (that he can’t deal with because they are not natural) his T will shoot up to compensate. If he’s an out of shape slug, his progesterone regulation will suck too. These are the guys who giggle and laugh at “gay frogs” when they hear mention of estrogen mimicking hormones in the plastics while not noticing their pattern baldness a decade or two ahead of schedule AND that the hair has apparently migrated to their back and shoulders like a gorilla.
2. Exposure to estrogen-mimicking chemicals but having some health enough to attempt to regulate it. These guys will not be as jacked up as the first group, but they will get that “big meaty face” that you see on a lot of mainstream cuck types who drink the tap water and eat the cheap meats from Walmart. Their waistline will still just keep expanding too for no real reason.
Now imagine the first group taking “T supplements” and what that will do to them… You can see these guys in their 20s looking at their abs and showing you their bald spot that is out of place and out of sync with the front of their hairline.
It is a CRIME if he doesn’t see this one…
somewhere there is a portrait of him, aging horribly…..
Exactly – you can’t repeat this sentiment enough… Everything you stated is so true and absolutely vital to living a high quality life.
Don’t ever be afraid to live a few years of your life like most people won’t, so you can live a life most people can’t!
The key to losing weight is to never have gained it in the first place.
Wow, motivational stuff right there, Heck yeah!
Indeed. I’m 32 and look like I’m 22 because I have never smoked, avoid drugs like the plague, rarely drink and do not do all nighters. I work out a lot, play sport and eat as well as I can. I respect myself so no tattoos or any other idiocy either-that and my dad would have kicked my ass for them.
Also, I’ve been busting my ass and put all my money into a property portfolio worth over $2 million and climbing given one I have is in a high growth resort area which is going to see a lot of development up to and including a refurbished international Moto GP course. So any time there’s a rate hike I cheer because I get better returns and count myself lucky I bought in when I did.
wtf is an “estrogenic diet” ?? Can you please post some sources to back up your claims about the male body converting estrogen to testoseron? I never heard of this before
I think he would be jealous and blame all his problems on him
This made laugh out loud like an idiot just now 😀
yep, hawaian
I’m 33 and started neglecting the gym in favor of working eighteen hours a day to ensure my businesses were successful. If I had it to do over I Would’ve made the extra time to hit the gym and cut back on the red bulls. I put on thirty pounds and now I gotta work twice as hard to take it back off. Never give up a habit of exercising daily.
Sage words. Getting motivated to start is always the hardest part but when the results come it’ll inspire more success and become second nature.
Take care of your health first. I think there is a chance that the powers that be will try to deny many of us healthcare in the future, better not to get sick in the first place when possible. Also I’m not about to trade my health away for money they’re going to take half of now (taxes) and the other half later (inflation). Health first.
Besides, my last few doctor visits were not encouraging. I’ve been looking for a new doctor after having the same one for decades and my goodness these new doctors are retarded.
They are already denying healthcare to those they deem unprofitable to treat. The more socialized your medical system the more this is going on. I credit my retained health to lots of water, fruits and veggies every day, try to be moderate in animal foods. Anything popular should be suspect as a killer; all restaurant food, all take out food, all packaged food, all popular food.
Weed, tobacco and alcohol are all GMO and the glyphosate is what is causing the so called ‘wheat belly’ or ‘gluten intolerance’. These are all now certain killers. Glyphosate is in all wine, beer, grains and even organics because of overspray. Beware iatrogenic disease. Some say it is now the leading cause of death. Oh, no, oh wow!
Indeed! We men age better than women, but the guy is a genetic anomaly.
I can’t stand Jimmy Kimmel…
He shoots and competes at 3 gun shooting.
More than enough to set him apart from most liberal Hollywood pussy “action” actors
Is Bill & Ted 3 still happening?
I think it will.
Bill & Ted used a phonebooth as a playful nod to Dr. Who. Now Dr. Who is so pozzed it’s ripping off Bill & Ted.
Also, he doesn’t whine about politics like others in Hollyweird.
Good article, but I disagree with the author in one regard: the female assassins were portrayed as the equal or better than the male assassins, with the possible exception of Wick himself. The only reason she wasn’t better than Wick is because she was the villain and therefore had to be defeated by him as part of the plot.
The “Ares” character (played by Ruby Rose) for example, was clearly the role of the main rival assassin to Wick in the 2nd movie. If you had cast a man in this role, there would have been almost no change to the character as written. It would have been a man in this role had the film be shot even 10 or 15 years ago.
There was nothing feminine or female about the character in any way, except that the role was played by a female actress. This would have been much more glaringly obvious if we weren’t already so conditions to Black Widows and other “female” characters essentially been written and treated like men in modern films. It was laughable to see her trading punches with a guy that so clearly physically outclassed her in every way.
“It was laughable to see her trading punches with a guy that so clearly physically outclassed her in every way.”
You mean like how this hooker was trading punches with Jensen?

I did not get that impression from these movies. I noticed significant differences in the fights John Wick had with men vs women.
In his fight with Cassian, they are MUCH more clearly matched and Cassian even uses many of the same tactics John utilized in the first movie (pounding the knife downward in a deadlock). That fight is also much longer and more tense.
Meanwhile, the Ares fight lasts only a minute and it is clear that her only advantages are speed and surprise. John literally picks her up and hurls her at a wall. This breaks her focus and then he easily stabs her with her own knife, as she is unable to physically contest him. Perkins also got KO’d despite having surprise on him while he only had the use of one arm.
Good points. I may be wrong.
Was this a “bone” thrown to the SJW /feminist crowd do you think ??? The cliche of a woman kick a man’s ass was put in to give the movie some feminist cred ? Laughable that a chick can out fight a man. Now I think a woman could be a competent assassin using feminine wiles and sneaky techniques like poisoning etc but a toe-to-toe brawl against a fella ? No Way…
I think it was more about them trying to give the movie a certain “slick” modern style. I don’t think it was a token to feminism so much as it was like they thought adding in this semi-androgynous chick killer would make it seem more edgy and modern or something.
Or maybe they just knew they had to have a certain number of female characters in the movie to meet the quota or else they would get shit from the Anita Sarkuntian types.
I have the DVD of the first movie and it is one of two movies I’ve enjoyed listening to the director commentary during the film. (The other was Deadpool).
I’ve seen some youtube videos of Reeves practicing three gun…. he knows his way around firearms.
The other great thing about the film (John Wick 2) is that it absolutely legitimizes male anger. John Wick is fueled by rage, by a drive for revenge, and no matter how deeply you probe into his motivation, at the end, that’s all there is. And it’s enough. He’s been seriously wronged, and he’s going to destroy anyone who has anything to do with it. Male anger is something that’s been pathologized for decades, and Wick is a wonderful character because he is the ultimate example of really, genuinely not giving a shit what anyone thinks, because he’s going to kill them anyway.
Same with “Payback”, by Mel Gibson. Sure, he loves the girl, but that won’t stop him in fulfilling his mission of vengeance.
It was good, but the orig starring lee marvin was better
was that the final battle scene?
would be worst movie ever if it was
Story of my fucking life, right there.
Great movie Payback. Wasn’t the premise that he wanted his 71k ?? He went on a revenge killing spree just for 71 g’s….
YES!! every other movie or TV show they will find some excuse how you shouldnt kill someone who has wronged you (and continues to wrong). John Wick just kills them.
In John Wick 2 he kills them, and every poor lowly mechanic at the Russian car chop shop that don’t even know who’s car it is and don’t attack him until he starts slitting their throats.
Then he kills the entire city.
In almost every movie ever made, there’s always an authority figure. Think of Batman, or the whole Iron Man franchise, or pretty much any modern movie. Every Clint Eastwood movie has some pissed-off cop or bureaucrat or whoever who Harry Callahan is making a point to. There’s always some authority who the hero is either reacting to or making a statement to or whatever. In John Wick, there literally are no authority figures. At all. Wick is free to do whatever he thinks he should and needs to, and he doesn’t have to explain himself to anyone, or even acknowledge that they exist.
Not sure about that, the continental system is close to an authority. They provide an island of order that permits the functioning of chaos and it seems even the high table respects it.
Disagree. They provide a suite of services, but aside from the rules within their facilities, they have zero interest in controlling the thoughts or actions of people outside. Once you leave the Continental, assuming you haven’t broken the one rule, they don’t care what you do.
Kind of reminded me of Clint Eastwood’s character shooting the bar/brothel owner in ‘Unforgiven’:
Sheriff Little Bill: Well, sir, you are a cowardly son of a bitch! You just shot an unarmed man!
Will Munny: Well, he should have armed himself if he’s going to decorate his saloon with my friend.
Never. Fuck. With. A. Man’s. Ride. ——————- Ever.
This is usually after the hero goes on a killing rampage too, killing everyone connected to the person responsible for his pain; his butler, his guards, his driver, his fucking dog groomer, but when he finally has the main bad guy at his mercy, just as we’re willing him to kill the villain, he says some shite like “Noooooo! Killing you won’t bring her back” then his gun clatters to the ground as the sound of wailing police sirens get closer.
It’s bollocks!
I really liked the ending to the Magnum PI episode(s) ‘Did You See The Sunrise?’ for that reason.
Wow….think I remember that episode. The one where at the end Magnum basically wastes the Russian protagonist, think his name was “Ivan” or something. It was in reprisal for his killing of (Thomas Magnum’s) good friend “Mac”, in a car bomb I think. ” Did you see the sunrise?”; was the question Mangum asks the Russian before he wasted him (“Yes I did why?”); bang shot dead; Magnum’s friend Mac apparently didn’t see the sun rise. Bit of a shocker at the time considering Selleck’s characters good guy image.
Yeah, Magnum’s friend last words were something like, – hey, let’s drive up to h+(lots of vowels) and watch the sunrise! –as he jumps in the car and it blows him to hell and gone…bomb was meant for Magnum.
When I saw that I immediately called a friend of mine: “Say, remember the episode of magnum where they perform an extrajudicial execution in the woods? Cause that shit happened.”
Yeah, I was watching and figured it was gonna be the typical villain monologueing his way out of the good guy doing what obviously needed to get done. A pleasant surprise…
While I do love Keanu Reeve’s actual shooting and gun handling skills, Crank did it better and had hotter women, an actually masculine hero that actually fucks and some fun and humor that John Wick lacked.
Apples and oranges
And one more thing. There’s a fight scene in the movie with some female assassin. I checked. The actress who plays this part is some tattooed little dyke who’s 5’7 and weighs about 128. Keanu Reeves is 6’1″ and weighs about 175. Unlike other movies, where the size and strength disparity is just wished away, in this film he just destroys her, and kills her with her own knife by stabbing her in the chest in about one minute. There are a couple of moments when he just picks her up and throws her against the wall. I am sick to death of fight scenes in movies where someone like Scarlett Johansson, who is all of 5’3″, takes down a dozen grown men. Uh, that’s not how it works. John Wick is one of the few movies to simply demonstrate that. All the tattoos and faux bad-assery in the world do not change the fact that if you’re a woman and you physically attack a man, you’re going to get your ass handed to you.
The only female character you didn’t mention is the Gianna d’Antonio who was chosen by her father to take over the family business. Not because she’s female, but because her younger brother is obviously not suited for power and she wielded it much better.
Career women who dies childless she seems to die happy because she was liberated from her responsibility of taking the family business.
I liked John Wick, the original, and this sounds like a good film. I do wonder about the casting of someone like Ruby Rose in a film like this – she was also in Xander Cage i think. There is a current trend for Hollywood to get young men used to attractive lesbians (albeit in this case an androgynous one) as at the very least objects of attention, and by extension objects of desire. You can add to Ruby Rose, Cara Delavigne (in the forthcoming Valerian, by the occult obsessive Luc Besson) as well as Kristen Steward. All these women are being pushed forth as objects of masturbatory desire for young men in exactly the way the occultists and feminists want: they can be desired, but they can never be obtained. This is exactly what the matriarchal matrix wants, for us to become accustomed to attractive women who we desire, but who will never desire ‘us’ (i.e. as men) in return. Everything in feminism and queer cinema is geared towards this end. You can tell the whole of the history of the last few decades in terms of the efforts of the mother matrix to re-direct male sexuality towards the unobtainable. So quite aside of whether there are red pill aspects to this film (and since I haven’t watched it yet I will assume it is all that it is made out to be) if you buy into this film (and others like it) as some kind of red pill release then all the more fool you. You are just being trained to masturbate to a different object, and the fact that Wick defeats and kills the Rose character may not change that – a violent resolution to an attraction / repulsion object is a defeat not a victory.
Moreover both Rose and Stewart push the transgender / transformation aspect
Here is Rose changing from a pretty girl to a basically a man / drag king. Likewise one moment Stewart is a femme and the next she looks like a man. This is the very essence of the occult transgender agenda, the alchemical melding of the masculine and feminine aspects, the above and below (as I like to remind everyone the Baphomet has breasts).
Moreover just consider the name Ruby Rose. That is the most occultic name you could come up with.
the long and short of it is that however great and red pill this film is, it’s still a trap.
Besson is obsessed by the occult? Didnt he do City of Lost Children starring ron perlman?
NM: that was Jeneut and/or Caro
I’m seem to be out there on a limb on this one, but yes, i’m convinced of it. The fifth element, Lucy (light/lucifer) Valerian, it’s all occult themed. I’m not saying he’s illuminati or whatever, just that he might as well be. Also his ex milla jojovich, strong female action star, has an interesting and slightly disturbing history
http://www.pseudoccultmedia.net/2013/06/milla-jovovich-how-to-get-ahead-in.html
His first major American film, the Professional, is essentially a love story between a grown man and a 10yo girl.
You have to excuse him, he’s French.
Probably not a coincidence. With hindsight there is something quite odd about it, although Leon was supposed to be an innocent
The popularity of Ruby Rose is really a sign of complete female degeneracy. In the past she would have been the alternative chick, a role model perhaps for broads on the periphery, but now she is mainstream, displaying her heavily tattooed body and gender ‘fluidity’ for all to see.
I find her absolutely disgusting, and the fact that she is Australian makes her 10 times worse.
She fits the current occult (trans)gender agenda, and straight women are fascinated by the idea of being able to switch roles. If you can further the illuminati agenda of breaking down the boundaries between male and female then you will have money, resources and even fame thrown at you. That’s why this movie is subversive quite regardless of the red pill nature of the plot and narrative. They are insinuating their agenda into young impressionable male (and female) minds. They want you to take their transformation agenda seriously. That’s why this article is wrong-headed: it’s analysis could be spot on in every other way, but if it fails to see ‘what is being done’ with respect to the casting, and the real produce being sold here, then it can only be misleading
Is she a role model? Much creepiness in her vibe.
No, but I’m worried that she is fast becoming one.

That Charles F. Xavier X Lara Croft movie, can that be considered red pill too?
since it was the Minotaurus story in a modern way told
wanked or something along the line was the name.
Since John Wick is driven by his dog, never seen the movie, but that stuck with me,
what about A Boy and His Dog?
Can’t imagine a better happy end and a more blue pill movie (yes, I believe in the blue Eyes in Dune and I believe Matrix is crap, and will always be crap, I don’t trust a *ski, especially when one ends up as a Sissy).
“Everyone who has swallowed the red pill should watch the two movies.”
“John Wick is not a play boy, and the directors made sure to show that neither is he a man that attracts ample sexual attention from females – not because he is unattractive to them, but because every female character he chances upon in the films read loud and clear that he is not interested in catering to their whims or sexual needs, and that pursuing him would be a futile endeavor.”
“Even the currency of exchange in both films is focused around the gold coins issued by The Continental, which is difficult to interpret in any way aside from a direct and blatant snub at our real world’s fiat currencies.”
“Aside from the female assassins, all other female roles are relegated to clerical (accounts payable) or sexual entertainment (Circle Nightclub), signifying their insignificance in the affairs of men.”
“A culture is defined not only by its customs and laws, but also by its art and how its art appeals to its people. Civilization was never defined by an Orwellian, legalistic society, but rather the general zeitgeist of its people when it comes to the abstract appreciation of the world.”
A movie set in an alternate world?
Looks to me as if these movies are reminding us of the REAL world. A world that is hidden and counterfeited by corporations, governments, bankers, scholars, feminists, leftists, and so many other retards that I can’t count them all.
I haven’t gone to the theater or watched a movie since the Bourne Legacy. And I have seen the ads and promos for John Wick. Mistakenly, I confused Wick for more Hollywood bullshit to rake in money from the masses. Having read this article, I will watch the Wick movies as soon as I can.
And I do like this article. It gets to the heart without serving bullshit on the plate.
To be honest I never bothered with these movies. I may consider watching them now.
My buddy’s old publicist knows Keanu well. The parties he used to throw when he took a bit of a hiatus from films (before he made his come back so to speak, after the Matrix), were completely off the chain, legendary Hollywood parties so I hear… the type that rarely occur anymore.
He’s legit across the board… and a better actor than he gets credit for, despite some of his doofus roles in some flop films.
Before John Wick he did : 47 Ronin and a Tai Chi martial arts flick that were great….
Was 47 Ronin any good?
I saw he also did some semi-horror movie where he was a married dude that banged two young hotties that showed up at his door while his wife was away on vacation, and then they went all Fatal Attraction on him.
Yes 47 Ronin was good. Stylish flick. Based on a Japanese legend of 47 Ronin who chose “death before dishonor”.. Saturday matinee type movie. Fantasy elements too. I think Keanu is into Eastern /asian martial arts and philosophy too…
Interesting commentary. “A man of focus, commitment and sheer will” is what I find appealing in the character. Yes it is nice to see media that pushes even if indirectly the Master morality.
BTW you descend from Ghengis? Quite a thing to be proud of but also some big shoes to fill. If you ever decide to gather hordes of bloodthirsty men for some good ole fashioned rapine and plunder, sign me the fuck up.
True genealogical fact, about 10% of Asia are decedents of Ghengis. He was quite the lady’s man.
Sign me up too. I know this guy, see, working on some armor…
John Wick was a terrible movie and you should feel bad.
You guys are so desperate to find anything “red-pill” (whatever that means) in the degenerate trash of modern culture that you’ll cling to the most disgusting rubbish because you find one gem of truth in it. Your too stupid to realize they put a little truth in the garbage to make the garbage your ingesting more palatable. It’s the sugar that makes the medicine go down. So I’ve got a question: would you drink a glass of water knowing that a drop of arsenic was put in? So why drink a glass of poison when a drop of water is put in?
John Wick is a Magnus Opus of Red Pill knowledge; have some self respect man!
Stop crying and maybe explain why it isn’t red pill.
It’s 2.5 hours of fairy tale violence porn that you lapp up out of hollywoods hand. It pedalstalizes every evil trait: envy, vengeance, pride and you call these things “red pill” because oh John Wick is shown to be better than a womyn for 1 minute of screen time.. You don’t even realize he’s portraited that way in order to sell to you all of his other bad traits on a silver platter. Your so caught up in trying to find the mythical “red pill” movie you can’t see past what a huge steaming pile you’ve been sold.
John Wick does not embody “red pill” truths he is a petty, dumb, vengeful man who you build up to be some great paragon of manliness because he shoots a bunch of people in a Tarantino cartoonish movie. It’s literally Kill Bill, but with a man who can’t get over his dog.
Lighten up, Francis.
wow…you will be like the only fella here not liking JOHN Wick.. Perception is interesting. You’re in the extreme minority sir….
People love their feelings more than they love truth. John Wick makes people here feel good because he is violently lashing out and some of his victims are liberal types. It doesn’t matter Wick’s motivations nor the deplorable nature of his crimes, simply that his violence fuels the fantasies of many people on this site. It’s a sad state of affairs when so many people purporting to be “red-pilled” can’t come to grasps with the need to master their emotions and instead supplicate them with masterbatory works such as Wick.
Not sure any of his victims were liberal types.
Seems they were all criminals like him.
After all, it’s just an action movie creating a fictional world.
All repression gets ya is sexless women and shit like cancer.
If it feels good do it. Right?
Everything in moderation. Including moderation.
Cant argue with that
I liked the movie and this review, but I have to disagree on John Wick being any kind of red pill role model.
Like most modern action heroes, John Wick is completely and absolutely asexual.
He does “manly” stuff like shooting and killing mooks by the truckload, but he has no personality trait other than repressed rage and professionalism.
No game, no seduction ala James Bond, no sweet-talking the ladies, no fucking, he looks mildly autistic.
I expect a male role model to game bitches or at least swoop them off their feet with his manly skills, not just ignore them the entire movie.
MGTOW hero….no thanks.
In defense of John Wick, as a character, the premise of the movie is that he is on a rampage after the death of his wife, fueled by his anguish at losing her. It doesn’t quite fit the character or the narrative to have him pause during his reign of vengeance to bang some whore. You wouldn’t expect (motherfucking) Charlie Bronson to stop midway through murderizing punks in the first Deathwish movie to get a blowjob.
“Dis’ ain’t ovah. Gonna get me a beej, den I’ll resume to killin’ ya’ again!”
“You dirty bastards killed my beautiful wife, the love of my life, who meant everything to me! I’m so fucking enraged that I’ve spent the last hour tracking half of your murderous gang down and butchering them in the most painful ways possible. As soon as Destiny finishes giving me this lap dance, I’m gonna go put it in her butt, and then I’m gonna kill the other half of you.”
too bad he got da AIDS…..
Jason Statham did it in Crank and Crank 2.
Also had more humor and is more believable as a masculine dude,
Not really. The movies have different plots. The characters have different motivations for what they are doing.
I understand that you liked Crank better, but you should still be able to comprehend the point that they have different plots, and the actions the main character takes in Crank would not necessarily make sense for the main character in John Wick.
In Crank 1 & 2, the Jason Statham character himself was poisoned and dying, and he went on a killing spree to avenge himself before he actually died. Having him sport-fuck Amy Smart (very nice) made sense because he was dying, and wanted to get a last fuck in before he was dead.
In John Wick, he is distraught because his wife has just died and like 5 minutes after her funeral, these guys killed the last gift she gave him, a new puppy that she gave him to help him heal from losing her. So, the whole reason the John Wick character is on this killing spree is because he loved his wife so much and is distraught at her loss.
It doesn’t make sense for the character to just bang some other chick in that circumstance. I mean, give the guy a week at least to get back on the horse.
They also stole his 1969 Mustang fastback…
Never fuck with a man’s ride. Ever.
Good point. But that would not (necessarily) interfere with a quick sport-fuck during a vengeance-fueled killing spree, so I left that out.
I think the one argument against the red pill perspective, is it seems he was lost/no purpose after his wife died. That if this hadn’t happened— he’d be fading way. If you view it as returning to himself, who he really is— then why did he change for a woman?
Directory commentary talks about there are two characters– John, and John Wick or Mister Wick. The guy outside that world he was trying to be, and the guy inside the world. Which, I think is a bit outside the red pill perspective of being true to oneself.
Actually, it starts before that. He was, by all accounts, the perfect hitman… it was his mission, the thing he was best at, and he was very successful at it. But he gave it all when he found the love of his life. So, technically, he gave up his mission for his woman, which you could argue is kind of beta.
Yea, that romantic he gave it all up for her! Awwww….
Since the second movie picks up where the first left off, we don’t get chance to see John pursuing something of his own volition.
They’ll fuck it up by the 3rd movie. They’ll give him an 8yo black girl as a super bad ass ninja sidekick that can take down a 300 lb man with one punch to the balls and top it off with a sassy one-liner.
Which would work for spoofy Bond film like ‘Kingsman’…. and Eggsy does do the Bond – nail the girl at the end casual sex thing. So that would make Kotka happy.
Not gonna work in Wick 3. The guys doing the John Wick movies were actually an outfit that did stunt work and produced stunt sequences before this. They got the job because they’d worked with Reeves on a couple films and he sent them the script. They then pitched themselves to the studio to produce the whole movie and got the job. Anyway, it seems they were big on realism with the fight scenes as much as possible. Hence Perkins being a big girl in the first movie and making sure Wick is injured prior to that fight.
“Always bet on black.”
Pussy is the easiest thing for a man to give in to. It doesn’t make a man what he is. MGTOW will give in to pussy given the opportunity. To deny pussy that Is offered, is a whole different level of discipline.
I wouldn’t mind a celibate hero that focuses on his mission only, if it wasn’t for the fact that no Hollywood hero in recent years has had any sex or shown any capacity for it.
Captain America, Spideman, Batman, Hulk, Thor etc. they’re all fucking celibate and “safe” for female audience consumption.
Even Black Widow is a fucking tease but does not fuck.
We need a hero that games bitches and has sex, on the way to his mission.
Gentlemen, we need Matt Helm movies done right. (Books are back in print by the way).
Hulk totally did Black Widow. That bitch doesn’t go without the D. It just happened off screen.
Are you saying she had to stroke more than his hand to calm him down?
I’m saying that whore recognized the biggest, strongest cock on earth and got it balls deep in her barren womb as soon as possible.
There isn’t going to be a movie that encompasses all the stuff we preach here. Personally I appreciate the fact it doesn’t have any sex scenes I’m tired of the juden degeneracy
….degeneracy completely irrelevant to the plot. Although they did throw in the girls in bikinis in the pool scene to make folks like Kotka happy. What more do they want?
Im thinking of a naughty gif with a lot of green thrusting…
Hey, go perv out on your own time, there, buddy. There’s serious business going on here.
no, that gif actually exists. think I saw it on the forum
Do we?
i know you know this
but i say it anyway:
if you feel no love you can only lie
and truth is power.
she fucked herself?
So, you’re saying a man is incomplete without a woman? That no mission or goal ever transcends that, even in the short term?
It was okay. I wouldn’t praise it too much. Sometimes a good action flick like Bloodsport or Enter the Dragon can be great fun for a man. But if there’s gonna be no plot or acting, it had better have some real martial arts or some great sex scenes to get my stamp of man-film approval.
I won’t look to Hollywood for red pill inspiration but John Wick is badass without all the romantic sex scene bullshit, just straight up murder and revenge. No homosexuality, no transneutral or whatever they call it ; the fuck else you want.
I love how there’s always some rationalization about how the latest dorkfest is somehow redpill. Movies are gay, especially modern action movies. Next it will be “How Fidget Spinners are the Most Redpill Item You Can Carry in Your Pocket.” And it will be some shit like “the fidget spinner, like the redpill lifestyle, is about perpetual motion- you’re always moving, always improving yourself, always looking for the next plate.” UGGGGH.
Bro, fidget spinners are Red Pill as fuck, don’t know what you’re talking about, dude-man. Bitches be creaming all down their leg and shit when I start spinning, bro. Fidget game for life, yo.
… and yo-yos, ’cause when you’re down in life you just fight your way back up…
Instead of finger her you fidget spinner her, women get wet with that shit.
Bitchez be spreadin’ bruh.
Great movies both John Wick 1 and 2… There are YouTube vids on just “the guns of John Wick”… The reason why Keanu Reeves is so realistic with his gun work is because he competes or trains in the 3 gun competitions . You run a course of pistol, shot gun and then AR . You should check out the vids of him doing the gun competitions , he’s very good. Why the fight scenes are so awesome…..
The big fight scene at the concert in John Wick 2 (killing the mafia bitch) was essentially a 3-gun course turned into a movie.
Or just watch a 70s or 80s movie. Red-pill without even trying to be red-pill.
Bronson, Steve McQueen, Bruce Lee, Eastwood, Lee Marvin, the list goes on. Manly and red pilled by default.
Sorry man these movies were garbage, the guy double taps everyone he ever met in the head, no suspense, no build up, just Micheal Bay level mindless violence with not enough purpose to fill two movies, but they did it anyway. Two John Wick movies = 30 mins worth of action in a decent movie.
If you look hard enough, you can find redpill nuggets just about anywhere.
Catharsis through physical action is vital for men. A subconscious reason for the violence against Trump may be that he represents the absent father figure for all these anti-fa freaks: all the little boys and girls are lashing out.
Enjoyed the first movie for what it was, but probing it for deeper red pill meaning is a bit silly given that Hollywood lifers are behind the camera.
If you look at the Pirates series with Red Pill glasses there is actually a lot of red pillery in it. It’s very subtle though, enough to keep the feminists (who are very stupid) from noticing.
True, even though they had to include women pirates which is laughable. They’re either whores or traitors.
Sicario was the most unintentionally red-pill movie in recent memory. The so called heroic bad ass female SWAT lead character was constantly being shown to be incompetent, in need of rescue, or being put in her place by superior male operators.
yes that is a good movie, Emily Blunt is good in it, but gets put in her place by Benicio Del Toro
Sicario was like Zootopia meets Salvador with Emily Blunt playing an out of her depth idealistic rabbit who wants to be a cop
Guess I’ll finally have to give that movie a try.
Sicario is a visually beautiful film and as for the social & political implications … I’m simply amazed it was released in that form.
‘Cmon. Sicario was an awesome movie. Blunt, Brolin and Del Toro were amazing. Check the narrative: even though she’s the ‘star’ of the movie, her character is only a bit player in the much larger, darker story, and watching her realize this is why the movie is so good. Everything moves around her with its own momentum, and there’s nothing she can do to stop it. It’s like a movie following one of the Roman soldiers at Christ’s crucifixion.
The good: John Wick movies are good.
The bad: The article states the fact that women are inferior to men when it comes to mens work. Womens main asset is youth, good looks and taking good care of our children. Thats like saying “water is wet” – we ALL should know that since we turned 8.
The ugly: There are people, grown, adult people who do not believe the above to be true.
Just like all newer action movies(including The Matrix) they all have ass kicking “badass” ( what a crock) women. It’s only worth watching if you have nothing else to do. In modern Hollywierd men aren’t allowed to be fast with the ladies unless the ladies get to teach him a lesson. There isn’t really a way to include that in Wicks story so he’s just portrayed as asexual.
THERES NO RED PILL TRUTH IN MOVIES, they’re just movies, simple entertainment nothing else.
meh. I hate John Wick or more like I hate Keannu.
Hollywood mind control writers need to change their shtick, I’m tired of villains being russians, arabs or aliens. How about some Israelis or organ trafficking rabbis for a change ?
Try Triple 9 sir or season 2 of True Detective if you want jew villains.
I liked everything but the scene where the girl is kicking ass. I literally said out loud “bullshit” When I seen it. I realize it’s just a hyped up action movie but that scene just takes me out of it every time I see it.
Keanu Reeves is a superb screen actor, in the manner of Gary Cooper. Both knew intuitively how to act for the camera. Reeves gets a lot of criticism, none of it warranted or justified.
I agree with the writer about John Vick. I thought the first film was nearly flawless, and recognized it immediately as a male entertainment. The writer has added other aspects of analysis that I had not thought of and I am enriched by this article.
That said, I paid a premium to rent the 2nd film early and, although I did not realize those aspects of the music that the author of this article has pointed out, I felt strongly that there were serious plot problems, and a general lack of verve and enthusiasm in this 2nd film.
I also initially was put off by the female villain, as another curtsy to political correctness, but the writer’s analysis of her mitigates my thoughts on her.
It was a franchise I was really rooting for, but I hope they find something more crucial and interesting for Vick to fight for in the 3rd one, because this 2nd one lacked any real reason for being.
Why are movies like this considered red pill and not blue pill fantasy using a gun to compensate?
Nolan’s Dark Knight films and Zack Snyder’s Superman films are total Red pill flicks. They fly in the face of the SJW movement. Snyder’s best film however is 300. Feminists though love to decry the “hypermasculinity” of Zach Snyder’s Superman films. Well I say there is too much Estrogen these days in movies.
I watched them; John Wick may as well be a demigod. 1 was good, but 2 makes me think I am watching a shoot-em-up video game, with more shooting than plotline.
Ares has a hot butt, but tragically was molested as a child, which turned her into a lesbian.
This is the shittiest movie franchise. Mindless violence made for video game addicted teenagers. Not one ounce of intellect required while watching this movie.
As a long time gamer, plenty of intellect is required for games, at least the ones I play. Picking skills, using weapons, tactics, strategy.
John Wick is the best character that vapid shit stream known as Hollywood has come up with in decades. A total homage to men and masculinity.
I would argue the point about Jimmy the Cop is inaccurate. It shows that Jon Wick’s world is allowed to conduct business so long as it is self-contained. Jimmy knew who Wick was and what he does for a living, but he leaves him be for now. I agree with all other points mentioned.
These two movies deserve all the acclaim they’ve gotten and will continue to get. I agree with the fact that they portray women as inferior to men at every opportunity as well. Lets be honest here. If a trained man hit a trained woman in the face, he’d knock her senseless due to the gulf in physicality. The fight with the “gender fluid” one and John Wick was about as realistic as a man V woman fight could be. I’m glad the film-makers didn’t give in to the “women can do anything men can do” propaganda that has seemingly overtaken Hollywood.
Chapters 1 and 2 were basic “revenge” and “begrudgingly pays back a favor” movies at their cores, but the action (and acting) elevated both films to almost-classic status imo. And whatever one might think of Reeves as an actor, he’s fantastic in both of these.
Part 2 sucks hairy dog balls.
I have asked many people this question; what is the name of the book used as a booksafe in the first Matrix movie? Also; what is the date in Neo’s passport and how does it relate to the most significant event of our lives from a global matrix perspective?
Thomas Anderson is all grown up now and has taken the name, John, of his father in the matrix.
The point is that most still do not understand the purpose of the Matrix trilogy just as they do not now understand the purpose of John Wicks. It is highly likely that Keanu does not either.
We shall see.
I hate Keanu’s carp level acting ability. I understand why women like him though.
