WICK IS PAIN (2025): The Things I Liked…

I’m far from the biggest fan of the John Wick franchise. But, because I appreciate the beautiful audio-visual feast that it is, thanks to the awe-inspiring cinematography, remarkable ‘gun fu’ fight sequences, and all the notable stuntwork, I made time. 

Having now experienced it, I’m certain that Wick is Pain is a must-see for all John Wick fans. Especially since its director, Jeffrey Doe, gives us a well-structured documentary about all the hard work and determination it took to bring the stories to audiences. Pain of various kinds is absolutely involved, but thankfully, plenty of fun too.

Make time for the deep dive into the world of Wick, the history of the creatives involved and the company of Monsieur Reeves. Undoubtedly, for me, the latter is a key highlight. 

Keanu Reeves, John Wick director Chad Stahelski, producers Erica Lee, Basil Iwany, and John Wick stunt double/coordinator Jackson Spidell are some of the key people featured.

WICK IS PAIN (2025): New Trailer For John Wick Documentary Starring Keanu Reeves, Basil Iwany, kErica Lee…

Read my spoiler-free movie review of Wick is Pain (2025).


Some dedicated John Wick fans may find themselves disappointed because Wick is Pain, isn’t the next instalment in the John Wick Franchise, a.k.a John Wick 5. But rather, a documentary about the independent film turned billion-dollar franchise that stars Keanu Reeves.

Directed by Jeffrey Doe, Wick is Pain features Reeves, producers Basil Iwany, Erica Lee and John Wick stunt double/coordinator Jackson Spidell and director Chad Stahelski.

I rarely watch behind-the-scenes documentaries these days. But for this, I can make an exception. If Reeves and the chance to spend time in the colourful world of Wick wasn’t enough, I just want to learn more about the horse stunt scene.

Where do you sit regarding behind-the-scenes documentaries? Watched any great ones lately?

Wick is Pain Release Dates: May 9th, 2025 (US)…
