Default Keanu Reeves

I love Keanu was the first actor I took a liking to & have followed his career ever since love Speed, Hardball & The Replacements. Don't think he gets appreciated enough esp from critics who just accuse him of been liek his early characters. Showed how strong of an actor he is in Matrix shame he doesn't seem to push himself into more big roles

Keanu is a dude. He's a star in the same way that John Wayne was a star - has plenty of charisma, can hold a staring role because of that charisma, but can't act to save his little life. But I still enjoy seeing him on the screen for some unfathomable reason.

Besides, he was in Point Break.

HEY!!! Im Thedude, followed second only by Jeff Bridges!!!

Serious face now. I also like Keanu, and while he cant act I too find him enjoyable to watch, maybe because underneath it all he couldnt give a monkeys about the film industry and would rather be riding motorbikes and playing with his really **** band Dogstar

Keanu can't act for toffee, but he's got screen idol looks and presence which is more than you can say for many. Best roles: Constantine, and his cameos in The Gift and Thumbsucker. The Matrix wouldn't work without him either but only one of those is any good.
