The John Wick Movie With The Highest Kill Count

There's something consistently satisfying about watching Keanu Reeves walk into a room where he's totally outnumbered and quickly rectifying that issue by way of incredibly orchestrated gunplay or violence with anything else he can get his hands on. That's what fans have learned to love when they sit down to watch "John Wick," Keanu Reeves' killer franchise that all began with the former hitman getting some payback and firing a copious amount of bullets all the way back in 2014.

From there, a brand-new saga was built around Keanu Reeves, featuring some of the best action sequences of the last decade. Now, after four films and a spin-off, Mr. Wick has built up an incredibly large body count that has been shot, stabbed, driven over, and even beaten to death with a library book. But just which of the wild, gunfight-riddled "Wick" movies has a bigger kill count than the rest? Well, it turns out that, as is the standard for any movie sequel, getting better means going bigger. This explains why the largest body count in the "John Wick" franchise goes to Chapter 4, according to Fandom.

By the time the dust has settled on John's most recent outing, he's taken down an impressive 146 ne'er-do-wells with expert efficiency and still managed to make it out alive. That's quite a large number, but what might surprise some is how the rest of the films fare against what many believed to be Mr Wick's last outing, which has now been confirmed to be quite the contrary.

John Wick 2 is the second best with a spectacular kill count

While "John Wick: Chapter 4" is at the top of the High Table for kills in this franchise, its predecessor took things a lot easier, even getting closer to the original film. While "John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum" may have a bigger title, it lacked in dead bodies, only leaving Mr. Wick to let rip on a total of 87 people. 

"John Wick 2," on the other hand, filled up its fictional morgue with a hefty amount, as our hero racked up an impressive 122 bodies because he still couldn't be left alone. That left "John Wick" at the bottom of the list and understandably so. A risky, small-time action movie back then, the first "John Wick" didn't go too wild, with the former dog owner taking down 81 henchmen during his do-or-die mission of vengeance. Now, with a fifth film officially on the way (even if we were once told we'd never get one) it'll be interesting to see just where the return of John Wick will sit. Our only assurance is that when he does, he'll be bringing some guns along with him. Lots of guns. 

If you're in need of more Keanu Reeves action, be sure to make some time for his cult comic book movie "Constantine," too.
