Yes, because while some people make fun of him on IMDb, at the end of the day he's got a solid screen presence in the right role and has been in some quality movies. because like I always say... what ultimately makes or breaks you in the long term is whether your in quality movies or not. just being a "good actor" won't mean all that much without landing in some quality movies. His top movies are... 1)Point Break (1991) - 8/10 -)Street Kings (2008) 3)The Devil's Advocate (1997) - 7.5-8/10 4)Speed (1994) - 7/10 5)The Matrix Reloaded (2003) - 6-6.5/10 -)John Wick (2014) -)The Neon Demon (2016)
those are not easy to top as he's been in better movies more than a large chunk of other name actors. someone like Daniel Day-Lewis is overpraised around here as Keanu Reeves has him easily beat in filmography and I tend to prefer Keanu's overall presence more to.

Generally but Keanu Reeves is painful to watch if he's been miscast. Seeing him in Bram Stoker's Dracula was tortuous. Whose idea was that anyway? Casting him in a Gothic horror/period drama?

Just in John Wick and the Bill and Ted movies. Hes not the greatest actor. Although in real life he seems like a cool guy.

Yes, in the right roles. John Wick has been a revelation.

Always enjoyed him in The Matrix, Speed and the Bill & Teds but felt otherwise lukewarm about him. I think the John Wick movies have found the perfect way to use him and I look forward to the third one (and will give his future projects more of a chance as they come up).

What about Keanu Reeve's Famous British Accent in "BRAM STOKER's DRACULA" ?
LOL, It is so bad that it is actually enjoyable (to me at least) to watch now.

I wouldn’t say I’m a fan. He’s fine for the most part but I can’t say I’ve ever been blown back by his acting or gotten excited to see any of his films because of him. He’s capable for sure but I can’t say I’m a fan.

I think it works in the context of the movie because everything about the movie is so OTT.

Not a huge fan, but he's okay. It used to be that I didn't take him seriously. But I believe some actors get better as time passes. I was first impressed with his role in The Gift (2000) where he plays a redneck bully. I didn't think he could pull it off but he did well. Then I later saw him in a few other films where he was better than in his earlier works. As others have stated, he may just be getting more fitting roles these days.
