Really good thread about John Wick and the political and governmental signals exemplified by Jimmy the cop. Click through and scroll to read the whole thread:
John Wick: Chapter Three
Those are the little moments that make the first movie, and I would argue that they are not irrelevant, they build the world and show that John Wick even has respect from the Police.
My favourite little moment is the Russian bouncer outside the club, the little exchange about how he has lost lots of weight before Wick asks him "How would you like to take the night off Francis", before he takes out his earpiece and thanks Wick.
The Baba Yaga long scene is great too, Viggo on completion of some hugely important business deal ignores his underlings congratulations and asks "have you seen my son"? knowing that his dumb son has had a run in with Wick.
The 2nd movie doesn't have enough of these moments but perhaps its more difficult 2nd time around as the character is already established.

I like those moments too. I bet there will be even lees of them in the third installment. Judging by the cast and trailer anyway.
