Reeves' skills are on glorious display in "John Wick," an expertly made revenge drama in which he goes off on lots and lots of bad guys, and it's awesome. Kudos are due Sela, director Chad Stahelski and editor Elisabet Ronalds, who eschew extreme close-ups and machine-gun cutting to actually allow the audience to see what's happening in the many lethal encounters. Because if you're in this audience, you came to See Keanu Kill. Stahelski and producer David Leitch are longtime stunt kingpins, and in their debut at the helm, they place the outstanding action dead center (fight coordination credited to Jonathan Eusebio, who worked on "The Wolverine" and "Haywire"). Whether Reeves is executing head shots with mind-blowing accuracy or grappling foes into brutal arm bars, his moves are electric.
