Celebrated by films like “Platoon,” “Wall Street,” “Born on the 4th of July,” or “Birth Born Assassins,” Oliver Stone hasn’t achieved the same cultural impact with his more recent work.

Away from the current Hollywood industry, the legendary and hardcore filmmaker, now 76, remains attentive and, as he admitted to Variety, “confused” with current trends in popular culture.

Concrete example: the fourth film in the “John Wick” saga, where Keanu Reeves is the famous killer, which was praised by critics and spectators alike for its extravagant action scenes.

“John Wick discovers a way to defeat The High Table. But before he can gain his freedom, Wick must face a new enemy with powerful alliances around the world and forces that turn old friends into foes,” the official synopsis highlights.

“I saw ‘John Wick 4’ on the plane. What a swell. I thought the movie was unbelievably disgusting. Disgusting,” Oliver Stone revealed in a chat. With Variety magazine Before receiving a professional award at the Transylvania Film Festival (Romania).

He added, “I don’t know what people think. You probably watched ‘GI Joe’ as a kid. But [Keanu Reeves] It kills about three or four hundred people in the damn movie. And as a war veteran, let me tell you, no one is too believable. I know it’s a movie, but it’s become more of a video game than a movie.”

“I’ve lost touch with reality. Audiences probably love the video game. But it bores me. How many cars can you crash into? How many stunts can you do? What’s the difference between ‘Fast and Furious’ and any other movie? One thing at a time. The other. Whether it’s a Marvel superhero or just a human like John Wick, it makes no difference. It’s not credible.”
