WAT. I love that movie.

I know Bob Arctor. He's a good person. He's up to nothing. At least nothing too bad.
//He also wasn't terrible in Constantine, though that wasn't exactly a trying role or anything.
Keanu's biggest fucking smear is on Coppola's otherwise perfect Dracula. "Carfahks Abbeh?!"

Hmmm...
I'd say Arctor is doomed if he's up to something. And I have a hunch from what you’re saying that he is.

He's a great psy-fi actor. Anything outside that, no.

If Keanu Reeves is ever good, it's because he's been well cast, not because of any dramatic range or ability.
So true. My fondness for any of his roles has far more to do with my actually liking the movie a lot, not his superb faking prowess.

If he's well-cast and plays the role to perfection, how can you argue that his performance is bad?
