John Wick: Chapter 4 early reactions call it “Glorious,” “Epic,” and “Badass”

• John Wick’s fourth installment is just a few weeks away now.
• The movie sees some old faces returning.
• The movie will be released on March 24.

Following a protracted wait, the eagerly awaited release of John Wick: Chapter 4 is soon to arrive! Some weeks before the movie’s March 24, 2023, theatrical release, a few fans and critics had the chance to watch early screenings, and they shared their initial impressions of the newest installment in the stylish assassin franchise on social media.

The sequel to 2019’s John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, the fourth chapter sees Keanu Reeves return to the series as the titular assassin while he travels to exotic locations and battles his toughest opponents yet as he once again takes on the High Table and, specifically, a high-ranking member of the criminal council and the antagonist of the movie, Marquis de Gramont (Bill Skarsgrd).

Along with newcomers Scott Adkins, Donnie Yen, Clancy Brown, and Marko Zaror, the ensemble cast also welcomes back Laurence Fishburne, Lance Reddick, and Ian McShane.

#JohnWickChapter4 is f*cking awesome. Literally had to pick my jaw off the ground from some of the insane and inventive set pieces.

You are not prepared for what Keanu does with the dragon’s breath shotgun.

Also @DonnieYenCT brought his A game.

Can’t wait to see it again. pic.twitter.com/gf6sm5Ijal

#JohnWick4 is an action-packed, bloody, kill-fest, and that’s what makes it good! I normally don’t love so much action in my movies but Stahelski makes every frame count. Yes, it’s ridiculous. Yes, it’s video game logic. Yes, it’s extra as hell. Yes, I will be watching again! pic.twitter.com/D56ODsTTcq

One of the greatest action movies ever made, #JohnWick4 tops all 3 of its predecessors in storytelling, scope & stakes, countless astonishing set pieces, hard to fathom it’s all contained within one film, Bill Skarsgård slays, a hellaciously thrilling franchise finish (?) 9.5/10 pic.twitter.com/2jDwXle21J

John Wick: Chapter 4 is one of the finest action movies ever. My jaw hit the floor at least six times. One section involving a Dragon’s Breath shotgun is just action-movie goodness at its best. Donnie Yen steals the show. Easily the best in the series #JohnWick4 #JohnWickChapter4 pic.twitter.com/VBsZxC6bhu

#JohnWick4‘s three-hour runtime makes so much sense when you’re going *that* hard. The third act alone… just glorious. pic.twitter.com/TDCs74aGV7

#JohnWick4’s supporting cast is stacked with titans. Donnie Yen: as sharp & swift as ever. Hiroyuki Sanada: amazing. Marko Zaror: an unrelenting beast. Scott Adkins does deep character work. The way Rina Sawayama doesn’t break eye contact tossing off her kimono gave me goosebumps pic.twitter.com/G6sglaICew

#JohnWick4 absolutely rocks, start to finish. Keanu Reeves finds new ways to impress with stunning action and surrounds himself by incredible franchise newcomers.

Chapters 1-3 world-built and Chapter 4 could run with all of it.

An epic big screen blast. CINEMA! pic.twitter.com/KUo69tIQys
