So, let's talk... is he a bad actor or a good one?
Bad duh. But I still like him.
>>70377124
Mediocre at best. He's dedicated, though, and very well known for being a good person. That is his appeal, I think. He's just a really good guy who gives his all, even if his all is shit.
He's the embodiment of the idea that Hollywood "acting" isn't acting. It's having a pleasant face combined with a likable personality that comes through the screen
>>70377193
It's weird because almost everyone loves him, including me, but he's terrible.
I don't think I've seen an actor like him.
>>70377208
Pretty much this.
Its about be likeable and the audiences getting the Nice Guy to root for.
>>70377124
He's one of my favorite actors
Point break
John wick
The matrix
All great movies that he's really good in
Also be personal struggles and he's Canadian
>>70377124
Good physical actor. Has gotten better overall over the years. But has trouble modulating his voice, it turns out some people just physically can't make themselves sound like anyone other than their normal speaking voice and cadence. He still works really well in roles that know how to properly utilize his strengths, though.
He's not winning any awards, but he's great for the kinds of roles he takes.
He got cast in some extremely memorable roles, he's very dedicated physically, and he's a genuinely good human being in an industry populated and run by narcissistic monsters.
>>70377436
Wow, you've summed it up very nicely. Bravo.
He's not oscar type of actor, but he's good in almost any movie with him. How can anyone don't like Keanu?
I think he's an actor with a very limited range that can excel when put in the right role
likeNic Cage
He is not a bad actor, he is not a good actor, he is THE actor.
Every time life gets me down, when I think I can't handle the weight of the world anymore, when the constant stresses are making me think it just isn't worth it, I remember that the Matrix starred Keanu Reeves and not Tom Cruise and I look up to the heavens and thank god
He's objectively terrible. Now don't ever ask this again.
>>70377436
I agree about the voice. A major factor why he isn't seen as a good actor is because he has a very monotone voice, which makes it hard for him to give different expressions.
I also think he's actually a good actor though when given good direction
For example:
He's good in:
Point Break
The Gift
The Matrix (the first one)
My own Private Idaho
The Lake House
Constantine
Bill and Ted
John Wick
The other films he is hit and miss but mostly just average, and I think that goes down to the fact that he isn't given as good direction as the movies mentioned above. Guy is clearly capable of acting good.
>>70377880
What if I do? What the FUCK are you going to do about it?
>>70377946
He was very wooden in Johnny Mnemonic, technically you'd call it "bad", but the whole movie was kind of campy, so somehow it ended up working.
>tfw told I look like him
Is that a good thing?
exceptional
he has yet to make a bad movie; a movie that i did not enjoy.
>>70378040
he's handsome af m8
>>70377946
Don't forget A Scanner Darkly
So, let's talk.... is he a bad ass or a good one?
>>70378103
He's both
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpr8oqyjKIc
I think he has "it", regardless of his acting skills. He is just lovable.
>>70378203
That's pretty neat.
>>70378203
Teamup when?
FREE FUCKING PIZZA
>>70377124
Of course he is. Most 'good' hollywood actors are shit memes, Keanu can actually hold his own on a stage. Apparently he plays an amazing Hamlet.
>>70378482
I once saw a guy in Melbourne eating a whole pizza alone who looked just like keanu Reeves. It was so uncanny that the normal person I was with pointed it out instead of me.
>>70378594
You didn't see someone who looked like him, you saw him.
>>70378988
I want to believe, but he seemed too normal to be famous. It was a quiet out of the way absolute nowhere kind of place and he was acting completely inconspicuously and dressed in some of the least remarkable clothes I've ever seen. The more I think about it the more surreal it gets.
Maybe it was him.
>>70379033
>>70379070
If you look at his face long enough he stops looking like Keanu Reeves.
>>70378988
>that pizza
>the beer seems like a moretti
I'm pretty sure this is in Italy
>>70379070
he looks so dead inside lol. that's probably just the way his face looks but lol
>>70378040
You're clearly an idiot. You'll need those good looks.
>>70379277
For what?
>>70379070
>>70377412
I thought he was lebanese? Or just half of one?
>>70379321
Good luck pleb.
>>70379392
I already fuck a shit ton of women so fuck off.
he's good at what he does but only really does one type of role
most actors fall into that category really so i guess that would make him good
>his english accent in Dracula
Jesus....
Jhons wick 2 should be good
>>70378099
Underrated movie, honestly.
>>70379620
Kinda preachy at the end though. I still liked it.
>>70377241
>It's weird because almost everyone loves him, including me, but he's terrible.
Arnold? Stallone?
>>70378099
Also River's Edge.
>>70377946
Sorry but I loved Reloaded. Don't talk shit.
I thought Knock Knock was a great movie. Keanu really looks great in any movie despite not being the best actor.
>>70379385
He was half hawaiian I think and I'm not memeing.
>>70383255
he's very mixed, I kinda look like him and I'm also a weird mutt with a similar genetic background
>>70377124
Do you guys think he would of made a good batman?
>Good looks (like he could be rich)
>Looks intelligent
>Knows Kung Fu (Morphius: "Show Me")
>Has a deep batman voice
Better than Christian Bale though at least imho.
>>70383452
Keanu is tall and handsome but he's got a very ectomorphic/lean body. Batman/Bruce Wayne is more of a mesomorphic really muscular square jawed kinda guy, really rugged looking, so no, I don't think he would've.
people who dont like keanu would have to be horrible cunts
Ive never seen one but im sure they are out there.
>>70377137
>duh
Coming from someone like you, I'd expect no less.
Use your words, you illiterate fuck.
>>70377124
He's good at his job, but just because you're good at something--doesn't mean you should do it.
>>70377600
>>70379095
Look at your face long enough, and you'll stop looking like you.
But you're probably bloated with water, so I doubt you have any defining qualities.
>>70385470
That's an incredibly gratuitous claim.
>>70377600
back to /asp/ friend
>>70377124
bad actor, good guy. also he currently fucks ana weapons, so he's good.
>>70377436
>>70377946
It really comes down to hearing his life story. Stillborn child, then his wife dies in a car accident. It makes sense that he acts emotionally dead inside.
Point Break, John Wick, and The Matrix are 3 of my favorite movies of all time, and he makes all 3 of them, so I will always love the guy.

You're literally the one that was judging.
>>70387301
I don't follow
>>70387357
I noticed.
Why did you call me Fremen?
>>70387386
Because apparently to you having water in my body is bad, like I'm a glutton or something. Have you never read Dune?
>>70387407
No, I've never watched, nor read Dune.
Obviously, having water in your body is a bad thing, but having excess of anything is bad.
>>70377124
He's a walking chracter
>>70387448
>having too much*
>>70387448
Who says I don't have a balanced amount of water in my body?
>>70387494
Your family physician.
>>70387534
I don't actually remember the last time I saw a doctor, or a dentist. I think I'm actually not doing too well. I should probably get on that when I have time.
>>70383505
Older Nightwing or Batman Beyond.

I think they should've given him more villain roles.
>>70379397
sure buddy
>>70377124
He doesn't have range/versatility but he's one of thoes actors that isn't very good but is established enough to do a lot of good movies
Another example is Brad Pitt (though he can act if he tries, see 12 Monkeys)
