It grossed $326 million worldwide, becoming the highest-grossing film of the franchise in just 10 days, and received positive reviews from critics, with praise for the action sequences, visual style, and Reeves's performance.[5] A sequel, John Wick: Chapter 4, is set to be released on May 27, 2022.[6][7]
Plot
John Wick makes his way through Manhattan before he is labeled "excommunicado" for the unauthorized killing of High Table crime lord Santino D'Antonio on the grounds of the New York Continental Hotel.[N 1] At the New York Public Library, he retrieves a marker medallion and a crucifix. He is injured in a fight with a hitman named Ernest and seeks medical treatment from an underworld doctor, but his $14 million bounty activates before the doctor can finish. John finishes suturing himself and shoots the doctor in the stomach and shoulder to protect him from repercussions. He is quickly pursued by various gangs of assassins, whom he kills in an antiques store, in a stable, and in a chase while on horseback.
John meets with the "Director", the head of a secretive Ruska Roma crime syndicate. John presents the crucifix and demands safe passage to Casablanca. The Director reluctantly helps John as he was once one of them, a Belarusian-born protégé named Jardani Jovonovich. An Adjudicator of the High Table meets with Winston, the manager of the New York Continental, and the Bowery King, who manages a network of homeless criminals, to inform them that they both have seven days to resign from their positions. The Adjudicator hires Zero, an independent Japanese assassin, and has him stab the Director through both of her hands as penance for defying the High Table. In Casablanca, John meets Sofia, a former friend and manager of the Moroccan Continental. John presents the marker, which he obtained after helping her protect her daughter, and demands to be directed to the "Elder" - the only person above the High Table. Sofia reluctantly takes John to Berrada, her former boss, who tells John he may find the Elder by wandering through the desert until he cannot walk any longer. In exchange, Berrada asks for one of Sofia's dogs and when she refuses, he shoots the dog, which survives on account of its ballistic vest. Sofia tries to kill Berrada, but at John's warning she only wounds him. They fight their way out of the kasbah by killing scores of Berrada's henchmen and drive into the desert, where she leaves him.
Seven days later, the Adjudicator and Zero confront the Bowery King, who refuses to abdicate his position. In response, Zero's students slaughter his men while the King is scarred seven times with a wakizashi as penance. Meanwhile, John collapses in the desert and is brought to the Elder. John states that he wants to live to keep the memory of the love he once had with his late wife.[N 2] The Elder agrees to forgive John on the condition that he kill Winston and remain subservient to the High Table for the remainder of his life. John severs his ring finger and offers his wedding band to the Elder as an act of fealty. He returns to New York and is attacked by Zero and his students before reaching the protection of the Continental. Winston urges John not to die as the "Baba Yaga", but as a man who has loved and was loved by his wife. The Adjudicator arrives, but Winston refuses to resign his position and John refuses to kill him, leading the Adjudicator to revoke the status of the Continental by deeming it "deconsecrated" and send both Zero and an army of heavily armed High Table enforcers to kill John and Winston. Winston provides John with weapons and the assistance of concierge Charon and his staff. After killing the enforcers, John is ambushed by Zero and his students, and John proceeds to kill all but two students who surrender with honor after being beaten. Zero confronts John and admits to being an admirer before the two fight, with John emerging as the victor after stabbing Zero through the chest and leaving him to die.
The Adjudicator agrees to a parley with Winston, who offers fealty to the High Table after pointing out that he has only "shown strength". John arrives and Winston shoots him repeatedly, causing him to fall off the roof. The Continental is consecrated again and Winston reassumes his manager position. The severely injured John is covertly delivered to an underground bunker in the sewers, where the Bowery King is waiting. He voices his anger with the High Table and asks John if he feels the same way, and John simply replies, "Yeah".

Production
In October 2016, Chad Stahelski, who made his directorial debut with John Wick and served as Reeves' Matrix stunt double,[8] stated that a third film in the John Wick series was in the works,[9] and in June 2017 it was reported that Derek Kolstad, who wrote the two prior films, would return to write the screenplay.[10] In January 2018, it was reported that Stahelski would return to direct.[11]
According to Reeves, the film's title was taken from the famous 4th-century Roman military quote "Si vis pacem, para bellum," which means, "If you want peace, prepare for war."[12] In an interview with The New York Times, McShane said that the film would be big, good, and that nothing is the same while also hinting that part of the action could be the High Table's payback not only on Wick but also on his close friend Winston.[13]
Casting
In January 2018, it was reported that Hiroyuki Sanada was in talks to join the cast.[11] Later, it was revealed that Ian McShane, Laurence Fishburne, and Lance Reddick would reprise their roles from previous John Wick films.[14] In May 2018, Halle Berry, Anjelica Huston, Asia Kate Dillon, Mark Dacascos, Jason Mantzoukas, Yayan Ruhian, Cecep Arif Rahman, and Tiger Chen joined the cast.[15][16][17] In November 2018, Said Taghmaoui confirmed his involvement in the film.[18]
Filming
Principal photography began May 5, 2018, in New York City and Montreal, along with the additional filming locations of Morocco. Principal photography lasted until November 17, 2018.[14][18][19] Cinematographer Dan Laustsen was asked about how challenging it was to use as many extended fight scene takes as possible while filming the high action screenplay. He stated, "Of course it is [a challenge], because all the fights—Chad [Stahelski] is doing most of the fights himself. We play that as wide as we can. Because that way we see it’s him. We do that a lot, we try to play it as wide as we can and do long shots. Of course, because Chad has a background from the stunt world he knows exactly how to block this kind of stuff. I’m not the best stunt person in the world, but I’m learning."[20] In an interview with Jimmy Fallon, Halle Berry said, "I broke three ribs in rehearsal."[21]
The action scene with a hitman named Earnest, played by NBA basketball player Boban Marjanović, was inspired by the Bruce Lee film Game of Death (1972), where Lee fights NBA basketball player Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.[22] Unlike most of the other stunt scenes, Earnest has a few lines bantering with John Wick, but he still loses.
Special effects
The visual effects are provided by Method Studios, Image Engine, and Soho VFX.[23]
Music
Tyler Bates and Joel J. Richard return to score the film. The soundtrack was released by Varese Sarabande Records. Also featured is the song "Ninja Re Bang Bang" by Japanese artist Kyary Pamyu Pamyu.[24]
Release
Parabellum premiered in Brooklyn, New York on May 9, 2019.[25] The film was theatrically released in the United States on May 17, 2019, by Lionsgate. The film was released on Digital HD on August 23, 2019 and was released on DVD, Blu-ray, and Ultra HD Blu-ray on September 10, 2019 by Lionsgate Home Entertainment.[26]

It then made $22.7 million on its first day (including previews), increasing its projected gross to $56 million.

Critical response
On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 89%, with an average rating of 7.40/10, based on 345 reviews. The website's critical consensus reads, "John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum reloads for another hard-hitting round of the brilliantly choreographed, over-the-top action that fans of the franchise demand."[35] On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 73 out of 100, based on 50 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[36] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A–" on an A+ to F scale, the same as its predecessor, while those at PostTrak gave it 4.5 out of 5 stars and a "definite recommend" of 75%.[31] Rotten Tomatoes also ranked it at No. 2 on its list of "The Best Action Movies of 2019".[37]
Peter Sobczynski of RogerEbert.com gave the film 4 out of 4 stars, calling it "a work of pop cinema so blissfully, albeit brutally, entertaining that you come out of it feeling even more resentful of its multiplex neighbors for not making a similar effort."[38] Chris Nashawaty of Entertainment Weekly gave the film a grade of "A-", writing that "as gorgeously choreographed, gratuitously violent action movies go, it's high art".[39] Wendy Ide of The Observer gave the film 4 out of 5 stars, calling it "a flying kick to the senses" and writing that "The spectacular third installment in Keanu Reeves's fighting franchise overwhelms with opulent martial arts set pieces".[40]
