In addition, Keanu Reeves briefly joins the film as John Wick. The cast also includes names such as Norman Reedus, Anjelica Huston, Catalina Sandino Moreno and Gabriel Byrne. The first comments of the critics about the film show that the production stands out especially with its action scenes.

The expertly choreographed fight sequences maintain a familiar pace from the John Wick series. Ana de Armas’ performance has been generally well-received. However, it has been stated that the character does not leave as strong a mark as John Wick, played by Keanu Reeves.

The film’s critic score on Rotten Tomatoes was announced as 77 percent and its Metacritic score as 62. Although these scores fall behind the main series, Ballerina generally receives a passing grade.
