There are two franchises that my wife loves and forced me to watch...

... The first is The Fast and the Furious and the Second is John Wick.

The Fast and the Furious is low on plot, high on action and vapid... and horrible. It's pure action and it's too... and I can't believe I am saying this... but too machismo hardcore for me to really like.

Sorry, but I couldn't think of any other way to describe it.

It seems like it is mindless action that is trying too hard to be cool and edgy.

John Wick is low on plot, high on action and vapid in story... but it's super fun and stylized cool and an absolute pleasure to watch.

Maybe it's because I like Shoot em up bang bang movies a lot more than drive around voom voom stories.... or maybe it's just that John Wick is the film franchise that doesn't have to try to be cool... and the Fast and the Furious tries too hard.

Or maybe it's simply that the stylized violence in the John Wick franchise is just so much fun to watch... and if you ask me to not be analytical, I'm going to say that that is the answer.

It's just so much fun to watch... and movies should be fun to watch... or they should be emotional or they should make you think.

And ultimately, sometimes you are just in the mood for something fun... and John Wick is a fun movie. All three of them are fun movies... and that is what most movies should strive for... being entertaining and fun
