John Wick: Chapter 2
In "John Wick: Chapter 2," retired hitman John Wick is forced back into the criminal underworld when Italian crime lord Santino D'Antonio calls in a marker, a blood oath compelling John to assassinate Santino's sister, Gianna, so Santino can claim her seat at the High Table, a council of high-level crime bosses. After reluctantly completing the task, John is double-crossed by Santino, who puts a $7 million bounty on his head to cover his tracks. As assassins from around the world converge on him, John fights his way through Rome and New York City, seeking vengeance against Santino while navigating the treacherous alliances and betrayals of the criminal underworld. The film culminates in a dramatic showdown at the Continental Hotel, where John breaks the sacred rule of conducting business on its grounds, leading to severe consequences and setting the stage for further conflict.
