Ballerina, a spinoff of the John Wick franchise, diverges from traditional ballet to deliver stylized, violent action sequences. While it lacks memorable plot details and performances, the film is characterized by its brutal choreography, showcasing various combat techniques. The narrative follows a young girl who, after the murder of her father, is raised by a figure connected to a crime syndicate. Although the film's violence is cathartic, viewers may find it forgettable soon after viewing, with its conventional backstory and character arcs overshadowed by action.
The pleasures of Ballerina are both blunt and fleeting; you're not going to remember the plot or any of the performances, perhaps save one five minutes after the end credits roll.
This fifth installment in the Wick franchise does feature plenty of balletic violence, perhaps the next best thing to actual dancing.
