John Wick's stylization adds a lot to the series as a sort of dumb action flick fantasy epic, but the relatively stripped down grittiness of The Raid serves an entirely different vibe that makes it feel so much more desperate and unpleasant. Both are very similar in some regards but are very different in others but are both still god tier martial arts action movie ****.

I cringe at the thought of your Jon Woo takes.
