Early in “John Wick: Chapter 2,” Keanu Reeves’ stoic hitman is in his basement hunched over his stash of firearms, ammo and gold, kept buried under concrete like a lock box in Hell’s bank. I noticed a wall of books behind him. It’s there in the first movie, too, but it never registered before.

It’s easy to imagine London Has Fallen as a lost entry in the Cannon Films’ canon, buried three decades ago and only recently unearthed, touched up with shoddy CG, and unleashed into cineplexes for our viewing pleasure. It’s gleefully violent, vociferously pro-American/anti-other, ridiculously plotted, and willfully ignorant of politically correct concerns — and if a smile crept up your ’80s action-loving face while reading that sentence then, like me, you’ll probably also find it to be pretty damn entertaining.

The cast and filmmakers of “Fifty Shades of Grey” tied down the majority of Razzie Awards on Saturday night, as the 36th annual celebration of the year’s worst movies were handed out in Los Angeles.
While “Fifty Shades” split Worst Picture with the universally panned “Fantastic Four,” leads Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson took Worst Actor and Actress, respectively, Worst Screen Combo and Kelly Marcel‘s script whipped up Worst Screenplay.
A worldwide box office haul of over $500 million might heal some of those wounds, but the Universal film&#
