Keanu Reeves has given us many mind-bending movies, be it The Matrix, Constantine, or the Bill and Ted franchise; the actor has done all kinds of roles, ranging from an action and dramatic star to voicing Duke Caboom in Toy Story. But he's best known for his action roles, which found its epitome in the John Wick franchise.

Directed by Chad Stahelski, the movies always find a new way to increase John's kill count and newer ways to add his pawwsome yet lethal furry friends. The original John Wick – in which an ex-assassin goes on a rampage after his dog is killed – was released in 2014 as a standalone film, but its success kickstarted a whole franchise. We've come a long way with our titular hitman in subsequent movies, John Wick: Chapter 2 and John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, as he looks for the High Table and then goes on the run, almost making us believe that Keanu Reeves' iconic character has finally found peace in Chapter 4.

John Wick: Chapter 4 was a huge success, as our favorite hitman goes on the run after a bounty is put on his head and takes on the High Table after years of build-up. The globe-trotting feature showcases John taking his fight against the High Table global as he seeks out the most powerful players in the underworld, from New York to Paris to Osaka to Berlin. The film has a 94% Rotten Tomatoes rating and has garnered over $440 million at the worldwide box office against a $100 million budget.

Chapter 4 saw John fighting the hardest; the action choreography was the main highlight of the feature, as along with the evolution of John's gun-fu, the film features a famous top-down "god view" continuous shot. Further, it continuously shifts tactical styles, using swords and bows at the neon-soaked Osaka Continental to a chaotic gunfight amidst heavy traffic at the Arc de Triomphe were some of the high moments of the feature.

'John Wick: Chapter 4' Returns to Streaming Charts

As the spooky season demands fans enjoy blood and gore, John Wick: Chapter 4 has risen on Prime Video's US top 10 charts, as per Flix Patrol. The feature stands at the sixth spot among titles like Now You See Me: Now You Don't, The Love Hypothesis, Forget Me Never, Dark Nature, Jack Reacher, and more.
