This is Bags of Action. The podcast is devoted to action movies, both old and new, but all of them awesome! In this episode, we do something different, both hosts went to the cinema and saw a modern movie, John Wick.

Steve and Pete saw the 2015 film in different locations in the UK so they spend the whole of this episode trying to recall parts of the film while they discuss the plot. The film has a big cast of well known stars including Keanu Reeves, Bridget Moynahan, Willem Defoe, Adrienne Palicki, Daniel Bernhardt, Alfie Allen, Lance Reddick, Clarke Peters and the always brilliant Ian McShane, Lovejoy himself.

There are lots of great little moments and small scenes from well known actors such as John Leguizamo and former WWE wrestler, Kevin Nash, which transform this film from what could have been a straight to DVD action film. The cast, the tight script and the remarkable action scenes make it a very interesting film to discuss.

At the end of the episode we discuss the plans for a sequel which has already been announced. We also talk about our next choice of film as we step away from the trilogies for a while.
