John Wick, a retired hitman, is forced back into the criminal underworld he'd abandoned after Russian gangsters steal his car and kill the puppy, a final gift from his deceased wife.

His relentless quest for vengeance leads him on a violent rampage through New York City, where he encounters former colleagues and faces off against the city's most dangerous assassins. Wick navigates the intricate rules and unspoken codes of this clandestine society, proving that even a legendary killer can be pushed to his breaking point for what he's lost.

Picking up after the first film, John Wick is forced out of retirement again when Santino D'Antonio, a crime boss, calls in a blood oath "marker." To honor it, John must assassinate Santino's sister, Gianna, so Santino can claim her seat at the High Table.

After completing the impossible task, Santino double-crosses John, placing a massive bounty on his head. Hunted by assassins worldwide, John desperately seeks to survive. His brutal journey culminates in him breaking the ultimate rule: killing Santino within the Continental Hotel, leading to his excommunication from the assassin underworld.

After becoming "excommunicado" for killing Santino D'Antonio on Continental grounds, a $14 million bounty is placed on John Wick's head. With every assassin in New York hunting him, John seeks out the Elder, the only one above the High Table, hoping to reverse his excommunication.

His journey takes him to Casablanca, where he reconnects with Sofia, a former associate. After failing to find absolution, John returns to the New York Continental, where he and Winston, the hotel manager, make a stand against the High Table's forces. Though Winston seemingly betrays John, John survives and forms an uneasy alliance with the Bowery King, preparing for war against the High Table.

After narrowly surviving the events of Parabellum, John Wick discovers a way to finally defeat the High Table: challenging the ruthless Marquis Vincent Bisset de Gramont to a duel. To earn this right, John must reconnect with his former family, the Ruska Roma, and eliminate a High Table member who has wronged them.

His journey takes him from Osaka to Berlin and then to Paris, facing relentless assassins, including his old friend, the blind High Table operative Caine. The final duel pits John against the Marquis, with Winston serving as his second. After a brutal fight, John seemingly dies, finally finding peace, with Winston reinstated and Caine freed.

Frank Sheeran (Robert De Niro), a WWII veteran and truck driver, becomes a hitman for the Bufalino crime family under Russell Bufalino (Joe Pesci). Forming a close bond with union leader Jimmy Hoffa (Al Pacino), Frank navigates the dangerous intersection of organized crime and labor politics.

As Hoffa’s conflicts with the mob intensify, Frank faces divided loyalties. Spanning decades, the story unfolds through Frank’s reflections as an aging man, haunted by his role in Hoffa’s disappearance. Directed by Martin Scorsese, the film is a sprawling epic of loyalty, betrayal, and the cost of a criminal life.

Holiday Village seemed like an idyllic vacation destination. In the early 1980s, hundreds of tourists flocked to its sandy white beaches and explored its underwater worlds with beautiful coral reefs. And while its location on the coast of Sudan may not have been an obvious choice for sun-seekers, given the country’s history of conflict and drought.

Brochures distributed across European travel agencies emphasized the regular flight routes from London, Paris and Rome to Khartoum, as well as the warm temperatures and pleasant sea breezes. But there was much more than met the eye at the popular beach resort.
