Keanu Reeves has been called one of the worst actors of all time, but I always felt that was hyperbolic crap. Sure, he’s not all that versatile, but he’s one of those actors who when given the right role can knock it out of the park. In the late 80s, it was Ted Theodore Logan in the wonderful Bill and Ted movies, and then later he became an icon for a generation of kids whose first R rated film was The Matrix. I’ve always had a soft spot for the guy, and was sad that he more or less disappeared after The Day the Earth Stood Still (one of those movies he was NOT suited for). Last year however, he came back in a big way by directing and starring in this martial arts film that he made over in China. Is this the triumphant return of one of Hollywood’s most underrated actors, or is it a desperate attempt to reclaim his popularity after a noticeable slump?
