More recently, 2014 saw Reeves land arguably his best action role in years, that of extremely dangerous retired assassin John Wick.
Thankfully, John Wick proved to be the polar opposite, earning rave reviews from critics and more than quadrupling its $20 million budget in theaters.
With only a few days remaining until highly-anticipated sequel John Wick: Chapter 2 hits theaters, the original John Wick has been given the Honest Trailers treatment.
John Wick couldn’t have come at a better time for Reeves either, as he was just coming off of the critical and commercial flop of 2013’s 47 Ronin.
