I love these both for different reasons. Wick has some of the best choreographed action scenes like ever and peppers in just enough world building elements to give it that extra texture without them ever bogging down the story.

Wolf is just a batshit crazy, entertaining, wild ode to excess and the dangers of unchecked greed. The fact that it's bolstered by a signature performance by Leo just makes it that much more memorable.

I'll sit on this one for a while, see how the debate stirs on...

Bah! I enjoyed, "Wick", but its "The Matrix" without, Morpheus. "Wolf" is a classic!!!

Sadly, this is where holding a tiebreaker is problematic. I'm happy to vote again right now if that would help! :lol1:

No tiebreakers at this point of the tournament anymore, so we need a vote!

I voted. One of the toughest calls for me so far. But John Wick gets the nod.

I am a Wick guy, but I also prefer the sequels. And Wolf is one of my favourite Scorsese films. It's a difficult call.

Ultimately, I had to go with John Wick. This was easily the toughest call for me this round though.
