All praise to the Zen-master vibe of our man Keanu Reeves as John Wick, the assassin who treats kung fu fighting like a dance tableau. He makes even death duels look easy. What’s not easy is ranking all five John Wick films, including the just released “From the World of John Wick: Ballerina.” I’m not counting the prequel comic-book series or the 2023 TV prequel “The Continental,” because, well, it’s my blog and I’ll deny if I want to. Giving one Wick epic a higher or lower rating than another is a tightrope walk. One wrong move and I’ll have to answer to my own High Table, The Travers Take subscribers with rigid standards about what goes where.
