Movie Review: John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum opens Friday

As a fan of the first "John Wick" movie I gotta tell you I didn't think any sequel would top it but boy, was I wrong! From the opening scenes 'til the end, it's non-stop action with a body count higher than the number of politicians wanting to run for president of the United States. “John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum” picks up where number 2 left off as Wick is a worldwide wanted man: wanted by every assassin with a $14 million on his head. Keanu Reeves reprises the role that he was born to play (sorry "Matrix" fans).
