If you had to think at any point during John Wick "oh come on, there's no way" you have to turn off the movie and never watch movies again. That is actually the law.

Hate to shatter your ego, but it is entire possible to put a head in an ice cream cone. The fact that we've never seen it before in film is where the intrigue comes in.

That's why Jack Reacher is better. :p

Ice Cream Man is also an entirely satirical horror-comedy. There is no satire in Atomic Blonde.

I'm sure that annoying Crowder guy is very consistent in his approach to picking apart unrealistic scenes in films, and this was in no way a unique occasion based on gender.

Tom Cruise acting like a hardo might be more unrealistic than anything in Atomic Blonde. I could punt him 50 yards.

"Oh fuck. We're fucked. Tom Cruise is coming after us."

*gives Tom Cruise a brutal atomic wedgie, grabs him by the collar and shoves him into locker*

Cruise is actually well-versed in wrestling and jiu jitsu, with a black belt in Tae Kwon Do, believe it or not.

You do have to go back to the 1980s to find a time when Keanu was goofy in the way Cruise always will be.

If politics didn't play a part in the movie, there would be no criticism.

He will need to put those legs to work when he's lifted high above the ground by anyone of reasonable strength, definitely.

I actually like Keanu better overall than Cruise. Jack Reacher was just a way better flick than Wick. Don't know why all youse guys jimmies always get rustled by that statement. :p

I didn't say he had to be a badass mofo in every movie. That movie was made after Speed and The Matrix.

The Matrix was overrated to high hell. Speed is probably his best flick behind Point Break.

And I like Cruise better overall than Keanu. His filmography is one of the best ever. But as an intimidator, it isn't close.

Did you see Jack Reacher? He is anything but an intimidator in that movie.
