Ummm no...
actually he is a worse actor. but he still clearly has better movies.

The rock self sabotages his films. 1) he or his agent are terrible at vetting projects. Always chooses the most trash movies. 2) he has self imposed rules that ruin narratives, example being, he puts it into his contract that his character is not allowed to lose a fight. So he's never an underdog to be rooted for in any of his films. 3) He went family friendly too quickly. Arnold and Eddie and other superstars did the family after establishing themselves with the grownup market with Rated R classics. And even in those examples they both would have been better off staying in the Rated R lane.

Reeves has way more classics. The issue is, he doesn't have a lot of range but he is really good with thriller and action movies.

Street Kings is a classic. One of my favorite "dirty cops" movie.



Then you have Speed, 47 Ronin, Constantine, Matrixs(except the last garbage), John Wicks...



- Rundown/Welcome To The Jungle

- Walking Tall"

- Snitch

These are the only ones I can think of lol
He also has Bill and Ted which is a classic

The only movies of the rock's people will still care about 15 years from now, is probably his Jumanji films.
But that's honestly a franchise independent of him. They'll make more of those with ot without him

Bill and Ted to John Wick. That's almost 40 years of classics.

The Rock lucked himself into some blockbusters.
We forget Keanu was in actor hell for a minute until he hit a lick with John Wick. Outside of the Matrix trilogy during that time period until John Wick he was in complete garage ass movies.
