Plus, he was genuinely good in River's Edge. Like, no monotone!
True thing. Also the aforementioned Parenthood.
Point Break! (big influence on Hot Shots)
One thing that Keanu does very well on screen is move. This is often an underrated part of acting, but it's something he has in common with actors like Cary Grant (ex-acrobat) and Burt Lancaster (ditto).
Oh yeah, and I watched the Lake House on cable and he was good in that. Much better movie than expected.

It was pleasantly surprising. Not that it needed to be, since my Keanu-love knows no bounds.

At my next review, I'm gonna ask for a promotion to Undersecretary of Staying Home To Watch The Matrix.
I caught Legend of Billie Jean Davies last week, another childhood fave, and now I hate it. Fair is fair? WTF kinda message is that?
I don't know or care. That movie was all about Helen Slater watching that silent version of
Joan of Arc
and cutting her hair all butchy. I was not paying any attention to the rest of it.
Keanu fan rollcall? HERE!
Keanu is so ingratiating that even Joe Queenan did a nice article about him. Well, nice for Queenan.
I liked River's Edge & My Own Private Idaho. I just saw Speed recently and I think for some reason Keanu + blockbuster action movie = sleepytime for Strega.
