Movies I think are in the same universe as “John Wick”

(My headcanon of movies I believe are in the same universe as John wick)

1. Mr. and Mrs. Smith

Besides the obvious; they’re highly trained assassins, I think the people that came after them were the table👀

2. The Professional (León)

We know there low level assassins working within small business like the one León goes to👀

3. Bullet Train

Don’t have to explain much this speaks for itself

4. Barely Lethal

We’ve seen that wick was train to kill from a young age much like this academy for young girl killers👀

Might do a part two I think of other movies but feel free to comment and suggestions.

Barely Lethal (2015)

While I didn't enjoy this film, that doesn't mean you won't. No matter what I say, the people involved in this project did it: they actually made a movie. That's something to be applauded. With that established...

From its title to the mid-credit stinger that promises a sequel, every aspect of Barely Lethal is a bad call. I know in 2015 Hailee Steinfeld was 19 years old but she plays a 16-year-old here. Why would you evoke memories of those creepy dudes who set up a countdown clock to the Olsen twins’ 18th birthday? This film is too dumb for adults and no good for kids, which means it’s for… no one.

The government-run Prescott Academy trains little girls to be professional assassins under the tutelage of Hardman (Samuel L. Jackson). Agent 83 (Steinfeld) is his top student but she yearns for a normal life. After capturing arms dealer Victoria Knox (Jessica Alba), 83 fakes her death and begins a new life as Megan Walsh, a regular teenager going through an exchange program at the Larson family home.

Grown-ups will inundate the film with questions it cannot answer. What are the moral and legal ramifications of training minors to kill government targets? If Megan faked her death and is trying to live a normal life, why does she keep all her spy gadgets… and where does she store them? We’ve seen her go undercover as an inconspicuous-looking teenager and her job is to blend in, so why does she act like she’s never seen a human being before once she leaves the assassin life? You’re not supposed to think while watching this movie, which is bad news for anyone over the age of 12 who might’ve been drawn by the impressive cast. Ok, Sam Jackson’s been in a lot of dodgy movies and Jessica Alba’s name doesn’t mean much unless she’s in Sin City, Dan Fogler's always a bit of a Jack Black knockoff (and his part feels like it was edited down) but Steinfeld’s a bankable star! Actually, she’s good here too, considering how shoddy her material is.

As soon as Megan walks into her school, you’ve got most of the movie figured out. She’s immediately drawn to Cash Fenton (Toby Sebastian, looking a lot like Harry Styles) but connects on a more personal level with geeky Roger (Thomas Mann). Her foster sister Liz (Dove Cameron) wants nothing to do with Megan. If I tell you the movie ends with everyone going to prom, am I spoiling anything? You can foresee the whole thing early on - except when the movie drops the ball. You won’t predict the creepy way Mr. Drumm (Fogler) fawns over Cash, the story arc they give to the school douche-bro-pervert Gooch (Gabriel Basso) or how little time we spend on the love triangle. The way Megan makes her ultimate choice on the big night seems so shallow it makes you wonder if writer John D’Arco and director Kyle Newman were paying attention or if either of them attended high school. I have to assume they didn’t. How else do you explain the school year’s very first biology class featuring frog dissections?

At times, Barely Lethal feels like a failed parody. It wants to be funny and can’t expect us to take this story seriously, can it? The execution is just so dreadful you keep waiting for someone to tell you they’re doing it intentionally. The film wants to have it too many different ways and fails at appealing to any audience.
