That's right; total count kill in First Blood: One (1)

"Rambo throws a rock at the cockpit of the helicopter, causing the pilot to lose control of the chopper and Galt to fall off from the chopper to the rocks below.

It is unknown if Will Teasle died from his injuries at the hands of Rambo's M60 or if there were any police officers killed in the car chase with Rambo's commandeered National Guard truck. Likely both cases sustained injuries, but made it out alive."

How do you actually count how many die in an action movie??? how many of Pharoh's men die when the sea closed in-The Ten Commandments?

bullets, grenades plus hand to hand stuff: enemies stabbed, blunt force trauma'ed, pushed/thrown, strangulatiion, drowned , you get the picture. No detonated bombs, rockets, WMDs or in your example Acts of God. Otherwise I think Thanos might hold the record with his "Snap".

Feels weird to put a smiley on this post!

John Wick's kill count in the first three movies:
  • 77 - John Wick
  • 128 - John Wick Chapter 2
  • 94 - John Wick 3: Parabellum
And with the help of Sofia (partner with her two dogs) the total kill count in John Wick 3 is 167.

Sure, this is pale comparison with real life; say Dorian (hurricane with 185mph winds).
Hurricane season is just starting, but this is no movie franchise killer, it's real life nature fury.
We'll never know the exact number of people who lost their lives to Dorian...many taken away into the Atlantic Ocean.

John Wick 3 is totally nuts with the knives scene. The opening in the library was cool...his first kill, with a book!

The scene in the hotel, with the glass panels...that was cool too...with lots of broken glass.
This is a franchise with over-the-top fights and quick kills. They packed everything in it, including the kitchen sink.

Sure, Moses parted the Red Sea, and then he closed it back with an army washed out.
But it's not one-on-one à la John Wick.

John Wick is a super crazy movie franchise; I don't know how many more films is left in that franchise, @ least one because Wick is not dead yet...not strong after the terrible fall (he should be dead, anyone normal would be dead), but still crawling and alive.

Keanu Reaves has a spectacular movie actor career. ...He's a first class actor, quite convincing, charismatic, and he's a great guy in real life. The Matrix and John Wick franchises fit him like a glove.
