The film reveals a hollow man, stripped of any real identity beyond action, and forces him to forge a self in a world that at best is indifferent to him and at worst wants him dead. Through the character of Wick, Parabellum is able to dive into the psyche of the action hero in a way that challenges a lot of what is taken for granted in stylistic thrillers of this kind. There is no revenge or justice being sought – Wick kills to live and lives, it seems, to continue killing.

The dog is a symbol of the love that motivated Wick to leave the murder business in the first place. The reasoning is, of course, more complex than the pithy question of “all of this over a puppy?” suggests. As of the most recent installment, John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, 306 deaths can be attributed to the killing of Wick’s first puppy 1 This is, by all accounts, one deadly dog. It is a joke rooted in the absurdity of the answer, debatably, being yes the killing of the dog given to Wick as a post-mortem parting gift by his beloved late wife can genuinely be considered the inciting incident that lead to the legendary killer’s return to the hitman business.
