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.

Chicago Reader

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.

Craig Mathieson

The Age (Australia)

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 series opens with an extended bang and doesn’t let up. And while it doesn’t quite have the same frenetic energy as the movies, there are more than enough high-octane brawls and stylish gunfights to satisfy action fans.

This series is fun and all, but the point of making a series on the well-established John Wick franchise is lost on me.

Rated: 3/5

The series insists on clumsily referencing the original universe. But it lacks solidity, visual identity and a good script to pull it off. [Full Review in Spanish]

Rated: B-

Was great! When viewed independently from the original movies, it stands as a solid series on its own. The soundtrack is among the finest I've encountered in ages. The sets and costumes were impeccably crafted. While the cinematography might not appeal to everyone, it struck a perfect chord with me.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

Empezar con una escena de acción potente (como debe de ser porque esto es una serie del universo de John Wick) para después perder toda esa emoción con escenas de acción mal actuadas, personajes aburridos, sub tramas que se quedan en la nada misma que solo aportan tiempo al metraje, el primer capitulo tiene varios aciertos pero los siguientes son un conjunto de fracasos uno tras otro.

The first John Wick movie was mediocre but alright enough. How it spawned all these different sequels, prequels, spinoffs, etc. Is beyond me. It just one thing after another with braindead writing & attempts at making a storyline. The most mundane of content. People must be desperate for something to watch to enjoy this content.

A good story but some things were rushed and not fleshed out but that is hard to do in 3 episodes. It didn’t feel like the John wick world other than the continental itself. it felt like the action was an afterthought compared to the movies. Overall it’s worth a watch but I was a little underwhelmed. Also had a great score!
