John Wick: The Man, The Myth, The Masterful Assassin

The John Wick franchise has created a modern action hero. A throne for which few have paraded in the more than 100 years of the Hollywood industry. In the era of superheroes, television series, and social networks, the grim character in the black suit, with an unfocused look and superhuman skill in handling weapons, has managed to prevail and challenge any form of entertainment that comes out to the public. This John Wick is not a character engendered from the codes of the Instagram and TikTok generation, he is a protagonist conceived almost anachronistically. It could well have been a John Wayne, a Stallone, an Arnold, a Van Damme, or a Bruce Willis. His feat is only compared to what Tom Cruise does these days, where a suit and cape weigh more than anything else.

Nobody (2021)

Posted on November 2, 2021 by Hugo Pagan Soto

We can see Bob Odenkirk in whatever. Ever since we ran into him as the crafty and immodest lawyer Saul Goodman in the legendary series Breaking Bad (2009-2013) we bought him anything. From there came the opportunity for Saul Goodman to have his own series, Better Call Saul. Now Odenkirk joins the action thriller Nobody (2021) by director Ilya Naishuller. This Russian-born filmmaker came to the public attention with the fast-paced action short film, told in the first person, that he made for the song Bad Motherfucker by the Russian rock group Biting Elbows. He then repeated the formula in his first feature film Hardcore Henry (2015).
