I saw it on another site. I'm impressed.
He's fast no doubt, but I wonder how his shot-placements are. Not trying to be snarky, but there's fast, then there's fast & effective (for the record, I'm inclined to believe that he's the latter). That's also Taran Butler's stomping grounds, right?Quote:

Given the dedication and training he puts into his craft I betcha he's pretty accurate. He's not a smooth as a pro shooter but give him some time.
Not sure how you sequel John Wick but I don't care, if it's anything like the firsts it's gonna kick arse.
Keanu Reeves has become one of my favorite actors. When "Street Kings" came out I really became a fan-not necessarily a great movie but I thought he did a really great job. "John Wick" rocked.
He's known for his generosity, frequently contributes his salary on films to the many low paid crew members. Is a big motorcycle enthusiast, has funded a new mc company and is involved in it's operations and product development.
I'd count him as one of the few big names in Hollywood I think it'd be fun to hang out with.
Is that Amy Jane behind him? She's hot!
I really liked the first one, so here's to hoping a sequel will even come close.
I was impressed with Keanu's gun handling in Street Kings. I was really impressed with it in John Wick. Some of the best I have seen on screen from an actor. I too am looking forward to the sequal. I just hope they don't muck it up like most sequals.
I am also impressed. Nice work sir; Especially for a Hollywood insider.
I still can't take the guy seriously. Every time I see him all I can think about is "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure".
After watching the first season of "The Following" with Kevin Bacon, I'm really happy to see an actor that actually shoots.

John Wick already covered retention shooting pretty well, looks like the sequel will be getting into rifles.
I like this version better.Quote:

He's probably had some of the best instructors teaching him technique and with all the movies he's handled a weapon I'm not too surprised that he's a good shooter, plus he has all the time and money to practice. He defiantly can run a weapon, wild stallion!
I've never seen Street Kings and looked to see if any online services have it available: Amazon is purchase only for $10 (dvd is cheaper) but if you have on-demand Cinemax (maxgo.com) with your cable package, it's available for streaming.Quote:

That's impressive. I can't run the gambit that quickly.
My skills are severely lacking after watching that video.
If it was your job and you could practice all day, any day you wanted, instead of going to a normal job, you would probably be pretty good too. Actors have time between gigs and get paid to train as part of filming.Quote:

Yes, that video's actually posted from that Taran Tactical youtube page.Quote:

Without doing any of my own research, it appears that he would be a big 2A advocate and he can obviously handle and manipulate the AR platform pretty well. We need more people to see this. Competition shooting is the gateway drug to EBRD (Evil Black Rifle Disease).
That's just an excuse man. Get out there!Quote:

(Wick star Keanu Reeves has been diplomatic about guns, not making any grand statements, but nonetheless conceding he thinks carrying one is “not the wisest thing.”)
He's not an 'insider' by any means.. do a bit of research on the man. Very charitable and humble. Strange yes.. but apparently very genuine.Quote:

I know lots of normal guys with full time jobs that are solid shooters.Quote:

I will take any and every opportunity to talk someone into engaging in competitive shooting; even if I have to make up the opportunity.Quote:

Never had any use for Keanu as an actor but he has always taken a different path from other Hollywood stars and had excellent physical skills. This video shows he can handle 3-gun quite well -- doesn't mean he's a 2A advocate like Kurt Russell but I'll give him props for being able to hit what he's shooting at. Of course, we don't know how many times he's run that exact course -- repetition does a lot for muscle memory. [Coffee]
