Summer Courtyard Cinema Club: John Wick

Director
Chad Stahelski
Certificate
15
Running Time
101 mins

It sounded like somebody’s porn star name, but wooden old Keanu Reeves‘ attempt to grab a slice of the old-school action hero, er, action proved to be hugely successful back in 2015, launching an ongoing franchise. He plays the eponymous, pooch-loving retired hitman who returns to kinetic baddassery on a vengeance mission. Fascinating fact: first-time director Chad Stahelski was Keanu’s stunt double in the Matrix flicks.

Go here for more information about this screening, which is part of The Lanes’ Summer Courtyard Cinema Club held, as the name suggests, in their sunny courtyard.
