Ive always heard nothing but good things about him, from taking major pay cuts to get co-stars paid, to donating money outright all the time and being super down to earth and approachable
Its all been said but dude chooses the RIGHT roles that make him shine. He knows what his range is and he sticks to it. You’ll never hear “Academy Award Winning” next to his name but you can bet that John Wick Part 10 is gonna do numbers years from now because he picks the right scripts that play to his strengths.

I think he truly showed out was as a racist/abusive husband In that movie “the gift”

Which is one of the many reasons the sequels didn't work. He was supposed to step up his game but as an actor he just stayed the same.
His presence in that scene with the architect mirrored the audience's
even though he was supposed to understand it.
Hes a blank slate of which the audience can out themselves into because he doesn't exhibit any emotion. Like a RPG character or create a player.

Word? See I don’t blame the sequel failures on him. He’s still learning and questioning things throughout both of those movies. One of the reasons they aren’t as successful as the first (creatively) is because they took the philosophy and mythology waaaaaaaay deep. To the point the movies almost became parodies of the first movie. That’s got nothing to do with Keanu or any of the actors involved.
After performances like this, he learned that he had to stick to his strengths.
The Critic used to fukk with him on occasion.

Those sequels are ass
like liam neesonHis speciality is being a stoic, lone wolf badass who saves the day or saves his own lifedon’t gotta be Tom Hanks for that
Definitely not blaming him for them, but I don't think he helped. Except for the action scenes he didn't do anything to make me believe Neo was becoming a different person.
Carrie Ann Moss and Larry Fishburn did, because they're significantly better actors than Baba Yaga.
I don't think Neo was becoming a different person though. Neo ultimately remained the same through all three movies, even on the page. He's an avatar. That's the function of the one. He had one character arc in the first movie and that was kinda it. Part 2 and Part 3 are essentially one movie, so his only "arc" there was realizing the path of the one, but that wasn't him becoming a different person either. Neo is a cypher; the one is a cypher. The purpose of the one is to restart humanity. The only thing Neo did that was different from the previous versions was fall in love but he was never becoming a different person.

I didn't even know he was still relevant until I kept hearing bout his John Wick movie
I thought he had been irrelevant since The Matrix trilogy
