Moviegoers are saying
Ballerina delivers 'absolute cinema' with Ana de Armas commanding the John Wick universe through 80 minutes of uncut, innovative action sequences featuring flamethrower duels and grenade ballet. While audiences are mesmerized by de Armas' lethal charisma and the film's audacious third act, many note the threadbare plot serves mainly as an excuse for spectacular violence.

mommy?
Lina lovedBallerina“how do I start doing what you do?” “you already have.” I’ve only seen john wick 4 and I didn’t really care for it 😭 but this one was so good. the fights didn’t look as choreographed as 4 (until the cabin scene) but they were pretty good. idrk what else to say lol I enjoyed it
Juan Zarza lovedBallerinaKILLER movie. I love this spin off, and how it's also canon to the universe is phenomenal. Character growth was a big factor in this movie. And the action? Dare I say, ON PAR with John Wick. Maybe even, slightly better? I'd watch this again in a heartbeat. Amazing film. 8.9/10.

while watching this i wished i was one of those dudes that she blew to smithereens with the grenade
Chris Hills likedBallerinaWish Ana De Armas would fight me like that x
Stoofman is "meh" onBallerinaSo, when a movie is set in the world of John Wick...you kind of have to compare it to the "original," and in doing so FOR ME, it was just not it, literally starting from the first contract, how come the goons aren't trying to k*ll her, yeah she's a girl but cmon, no weapons🤷🏽♂️
- Ethan Edwards is "meh" onBallerina
Bad writing. Poor storyline imo. Ana de armas’ acting is flat, I rly don’t know how she is such a big actress. Fight scenes are well choreographed and is the movie’s only saving grace. The water hose vs flamethrower was kinda over the top tho
Mark Bateman likedBallerina7/10 Ana was great playing the assassin and good to see Keanu reprising JW. Apart from overplaying the action sequences (which were all good) the film could have been told in 1hr 30mins. Recommend.
Andrikk0s lovedBallerinaYes Anna de Armas, you can shove your fingers in my eyes anytime you want.

4DX for $5 is a win and I loved every minute of it! 10/10 recommend!!!!
GAGloria ATo Vicki A. Who said 2 hours of bloody blood and left one review. ITS A JOHN WICK UNIVERSE. .l. So if you like blood this is for you.
AZApolinar ZapataBallerina falls a little short versus the John Wick movies but it was still a good watch. The grenade scene was something different and fun to watch. What it lacks in action is made up with the beauty of Ana De Armas.

Flamethrower duel
IRIsaac RealThe movie was good. It was entertaining. The John Wick series is better. The story lacked and only two fight scenes stood out from the whole movie.
RORONI Oenjoyable, but more like a 3.5
- RRRobert Reedy
Great addition to the John Wick series
JVJ VI have a hard time seeing a 5'6 140 pounds beauty like Ana de armas can take down a 6'2 220 pound man. I felt like the movie was trying to force it down my throat. Like a Mila Jokovich would of been better. It just felt like the stunt men were always waiting for Ana to…
WSWes StapleyBad writing, great action
Metacritic
Jun 4, 2025
One imagines screenwriter Shay Hatten (Rebel Moon) spinning a big Wheel of Weapons that would land on “hand grenades” or “flame-thrower” or “dishware,” leading him to craft novel ways for de Armas to implement these deadly items. The fight scenes are all Ballerina has going for it, but they’re frequent, varied, and clever enough to make watching the film a worthy summer pastime.

The Film Verdict
Jun 4, 2025
Exploiting a mere sliver of story from John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum, Ballerina concocts an especially dull origin story for an ancillary piece of Wickian lore.
Barry Hertz
The Globe and Mail (Toronto)

A cluttered mess with a boring storyline but the action is often amazing, and there’s a genuine sense of humor to all its weird duels to the death. That’s something that’s been absent from the self-serious John Wick movies for far too long — an acknowledgement of their own wackiness.
