Film Review – Til Death Do Us Part

The grand success of 2014’s “John Wick” has inspired many productions to present action scenes hoping to replicate the intensity and the eye-widening intricacy of the Keanu Reeves-starring feature. “Til Death Do Us Part” is another endeavor that bears some “Wick”-edness, with screenwriter Shane Dax Taylor (“The Best Man,” 2021’s “Masquerade”) and Chad Law (“Jarhead 3: The Siege,” 2023’s “The Flood”) arranging a tale about a secret society of assassins turning on one another when a simple act of termination turns into all-out war. Director Timothy Woodward Jr. (“The Call,” “Gangster Land”) doesn’t have to do much to make the premise work, tasked with simply focusing on the action ahead of him. And yet, that doesn’t happen with “Til Death Do Us Part,” which delivers a draggy viewing experience slowed by uninspired writing and a general absence of pace.
