They set Kirill up to return in the sequel!


I just realized that Kirill had the cleanest death. It seems he was set up for a sequel. In fact, I don't think the movie even made it clear he died--I believe one requires around 2 minutes of oxygen deprivation for permanent brain damage and 2 1/2 or more minutes for death. He was choked out for what, 30 seconds at most? He could easily be brought back for the second movie. I'm quite excited at the possibility.

No. Wick broke his neck. There's an audible crack, and subtitles say bones crack.

That's too bad, I love this guy - amazing fighter! He was great as Agent Johnson in the Matrix Reloaded!
And he's from Switzerland like me so I'm a bit biased ;)
