“Ballerina” delivers on its promise: more high-octane action in the John Wick universe. It’s a visual treat for fans of the franchise’s choreographed violence and neo-noir aesthetic. While it may not reach the same heights as the best John Wick films in terms of narrative depth or character development, Ana de Armas’ charismatic and physically demanding performance is more than enough to carry the film.
If you’re looking for two hours of impressive fight scenes, an expansion of the John Wick lore, and a lethal new protagonist, “Ballerina” is a first-class ticket to an adrenaline-pumping ride. It’s a worthy addition to the universe, one that reinvigorates the franchise with new blood and promises a bright future for Eve Macarro.
