Critics Consensus

The Continental: From the World of John Wick offers some stylish action, although it'll be most satisfying for hardcore fans invested in further franchise world-building.

Though it pales in comparison to its parent films, The Continental maintains the classic John Wick house style and is sure to sate the appetites of franchise devotees.

In this extra-grimy 1970s New York, a slew of new characters and their conflicts circle the Continental, including Mel Gibson as a boilerplate villain, but the fight scenes feel derivative and the emotional stakes negligible.

When I say "The Continental: From the World of John Wick" fails to live up to the most basic possibility this device offers, know that there are many reasons why that have nothing to do with Mel Gibson's top billing.

The Continental is a misfire, sure to leave us hoping that retirement isn’t a plan John Wick is feeling under his Kevlar jacket-protected heart.

Ação estilosa e uma excelente ambientação dos anos 70 compensam as tramas secundárias arrastadas. Não tem o mesmo impacto dos filmes, mas expande o universo de John Wick de forma bastante digna e divertida.

Crime lord, Comac, sends a young Winston to find his brother, Frankie, after stealing from him. When Winston runs away with Frankie and the stolen coin press, Comac enlists hitmen from The Continental to help. The show carries the classic John Wick action as Winston builds a team and attempts to take out The Continental.

Absolutely brilliant short form series. Perfect accompaniment to the John Wick universe.

Very entertaining. Does a good job of giving the backstory for John Wick

Can't quite get a handle on it ... As standalone it's fine, but if you are a John Wick fan, this is somewhat disappointing. The Continental stands for exclusivity, very high morals and respect, absolute elite and out of reach for most, code of conduct set in concrete, no deviation from rules, and so forth. This seems to almost ignore all of that and water it down to damn near tasteless. But, as a standalone, everything good enough though.

The series completely lacks the core for which this saga is known and that is to transmit the philosophy of the protagonist to the audience, in addition there is an obvious lack of respect for the work of Chad Stahelski.
