In 2014 Keanu Reeves surprised and enthralled fans of action movies with his performance in “John Wick.” When a video came out of Reeves at a gun range training with semi-automatic rifles and pistols, many experienced 3-Gun competitors said he could compete with them. Now, for “John Wick: Chapter 3—Parabellum,” we are again surprised by a video from a range showing actress Halle Berry run through targets with semi-automatic rifles and pistols as she prepared for her role in the movie. Halfway through the edited video clips put out to promote the movie, Berry smiles after someone acknowledges she had an impressive “double tap” on a target. Near the end, Reeves also comes on camera and praises Berry’s shooting skills.
