    it’s not that he’s bad, he’s just one-note, meaning he’s pretty much the same character in every movie he stars in.

    I don’t think he’s a bad actor I saw him in speed. I do think he’s a very quiet individual spiritual in his own beliefs loaner at times . He doesnt’ come off like other actors a bit wet behind the ears you could say. thats how i c him anyways.

    A lot of people think his reactive (as opposed to active) style of acting, and his consistently playing low-key roles demanding very little over-the-top work, is bad acting. I don’t think he’s brilliant, but he’s as good an actor as many of his contemporaries and can certainly put butts in seats. He does, however, deliver the occasional line in a way that suggests he doesn’t quite get the line’s meaning. He’s also pretty limited in range, faring poorly in roles in which the character is not contemporary or futuristic.

    I don’t think he’ll ever win an Oscar but I will say he’s one of the most entertaining actors to watch oncreen. He has incredible screen presence and charisma. He’s cool, stoic and sexy. I love watching him onscreen…I’m mezmerized. Somehow he draws you in whenever he’s onscreen. It’s his body motion more than anything else..he’s poetry in motion. No one and I mean NO ONE else could have played Neo other than him. He’s a very physical actor, he can flew his body in so many positions, this is what I mean about the “poetry in motion.” No other actor can claim that.

    I think each person has their opinion and we must respect. But personally, I can not give you a reason why he is not a good actor because I am fascinated by his work and the simple person, talented and good character that he is.
    For me he is a winner, for all the tragedies that have lived and lives (separation of the mother Patricia, leaving the father Samuel, the death of her daughter Ava days before the birth and two years after his girlfriend Jennifer, the mother of Ava; the fight against leukemia
    his sister Kim (God willing SHE WILL WIN!), short, long Keanu Reeves deserves an Oscar win (He simply has to show Sweet November, Matrix, Constantine and Stret kings.)
    But Keanu is one of the biggest winners in Hollywood, has already won several Oscars of God by helping to save many lives by donating money for research Institute of the Cancer Cure!

    BRAVO KEANU!!!!

    Keanu, that in 2009 you shut up the critics!
    I love your work and appreciate the human being you are!

    A big hug from Brazil!
