So this was a total mess huh. Felt like a 2000s action video game. Oversaturated and cheesy as hell.

Really liked the first one, and second one was also more aesthetically pleasing. I feel like this third entry doubled down on all of Wick’s general weaknesses: pretentious lore, lack of real danger for the character since he’s mostly perfect in execution and some really cheesy dialogue throughout.

Those are all the things people love about the first two movies, both the audience and the folks who make them, so of course they doubled down on it in three. Sorry it didn't work for you man.
