I disagree with those here that say he’s a bad actor.
Might not pick the best movies to star in, but he was great in Speed, not my cup of tea but he was excellent in The Matrix and though it was an awful script, he was very good in Devil’s Advocate
I think he's good at what he does if he is cast in the correct Role. John Wayne would have sucked in Hamlet, and Laurence Olivier would have sucked in Red River. I thought Keanu was out of place in Bram stoker's Dracula; but then most of that cast was. However, I really enjoyed him in John Wick.
In Speed you can see the pre-wounded Reeves. He was wounded when wife and child died and so the agony of loss has tempered the humor and joy. Only God gives us the peace that passes understanding and the hopeful joy of reunion.
How are you?
