'JOHN WICK: CHAPTER 2'

Rated R for strong violence throughout, some language and brief nudity.

What it's about: Retired assassin John Wick (Keanu Reeves) just can't stay retired. He's called back into action to settle a sibling rivalry.

The kid attractor factor: It's a sequel to the 2014 hit "John Wick," and the action and stunts will no doubt be a draw for teen audiences.

Good lessons/bad lessons: You can't escape your past, only fight through it.

Violence: Like "John Wick," "Chapter 2" is a surrealistic orgy of violence, a ballet of bloodshed, a symphony of stabbings. Many, many people are shot in the head, kicked, punched, stabbed and otherwise gruesomely dispatched.

Language: John Wick is a man of few words, but there is some brief strong language.

Sexuality: Some nudity, seen from afar, not graphic.

Drugs: Alcohol but no drug use.

Parents advisory: This one isn't for the faint of heart or the younger audiences. Maybe OK for older teens.
