Business Insider has posted that the footage from John Wick Chapter 3 received one of the biggest receptions of anything shown during the week at CinemaCon, primarily due to the fight sequences of Sofia’s dogs. They posted the following about the scene:
In one sequence, John and Sofia are up against a bunch of bad guys, and in typical “John Wick” fashion, there are a lot of bullets flying. But what ups the ante is the two dogs coming into the shots and taking out bad guys. In one sequence, Sofia kneels down and one of her dogs jumps off her back and leaps up a 20-foot wall to take out a bad guy.
Geek Feud posted the following description from the footage shown at CinemaCon.
…Berry’s Sofia character, who is an old assassin friend of Wick’s, has her dogs take down a man in a very sensitive spot. Apparently, Sofia trained her beloved dogs all by herself, so they know a thing or two about getting in and finding a specific weakness. They also help her smuggle weapons…
Geek Tyrant posted the following description from the footage shown at CinemaCon.
…One of the things that makes this scene unique and special is that Sofia has two dogs that are helping them attack these thugs and it’s pretty incredible seeing what they do. Having the dogs in the mix takes the action to a whole new level.
Have you ever seen a dog jump at a guy, bite him in the arm, and then flip him over in midair? Well, you will! When that happened, the whole crowd was like, “whoa!”
Movie Plus News posted the following description from the footage shown at CinemaCon.
…The footage included a pretty elaborate sequence shot that follows John and the two dogs are they take out one guard after another, but on multiple levels of the building they’re in. At one point, Sofia even has her dogs bail John out when he gets delayed wrestling with one of the guards along the way. Finally, the clip concluded with a moment where John is fighting two other guys when they all run out of ammunition at the same time. John, of course, is the fastest to reload and takes them both out with headshots, before taking out a surprise third guard who suddenly shows up on the nearby stairs.
