The Devil's Advocate is a strange sort of hybrid film. It's part John Grisham-style legal drama, part supernatural horror film, part psychological character study, and part homage to Paradise Lost. But it was a mix that mostly worked, resulting in one of the more unique bullet points on Reeves' resume. He starred here as Kevin Lomax, a gifted attor...
From working for a demon to waging war agaisnt them, Reeves would star as John Constantine, an exorcist/demon hunter reluctantly caught up in the ongoing war between angels and demons on Earth. As far as comic book adaptations go, Constantine isn't all that well-regarded, but ignoring the fact that it's not a great adaptation of DC's Hellblazer com...
Keanu Reeves and crew returned for this blockbuster Matrix sequel which featured a flying Neo, a freeway chase sequence (that still stands as the best action scene in any Matrix movie), and a crazy Zion dance party (okay, that part's kind of dumb). The Matrix: Reloaded wasn't the instant classic the first film was, as the cyber-mythos began to take...
Bill & Ted stars Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter returned for this sweet, silly decades-later sequel — the third film in the franchise. The story follows the beloved San Dimas wannabe rockers as they work to figure out, after years and years, why they haven't saved the world with their music like they were told they would. Samara Weaving and Brigette ...
This 1989 Ron Howard movie — that would later get loosely adapted into a successful NBC drama series (after one failed attempt in 1990) — was an ensemble comedy starring Steve Martin, Mary Steenburgen, Rick Moranis, Dianne Wiest, and more in a story about the foibles of family. This wasn't a starring vehicle for Keanu Reeves but he was a part of th...
Speaking of solid supporting roles, Reeves played a gentle parody of himself, or at least of Hollywood types, in splendid rom-com Always Be My Maybe. As the brief boyfriend of Ali Wong's character, Sasha — featuring a double date that was pretentious enough to throw Randall Park's Marcus into a jealous tizzy — Reeves was a scene-stealer. For more f...
Reeves joined the Toy Story saga in the franchise's fourth (and so far, final) film, voicing Duke Caboom - an amiable Canadian daredevil with a white outfit, modeled after the 1975 Evel Knievel Rally Stunt Cycle toy. Reeves seemlessly slipped into the series and felt at home amongst the Toy Story favorites to help make it one of the best Pixar movi...
To be fair, Keanu Reeves took it on the chin for his performace as Jonathan Harker in Francis Ford Coppola's lavish, ghoulish 1992 Dracula film. Treading water a little bit opposite Gary Oldman, who was effortlessly chewing up the scenery around him, Reeves felt slight in the midst of Oldman and Sir Anthony Hopkins. The film itself isn't hindered b...
River's Edgeoffers a simple but engaging conflict inspired by a real California murder case. John (Daniel Roebuck) brags to his group of high school friends (including Reeves, Crispin Glover, and Ione Skye) that he raped and murdered a girl. After finding her body, the typically disaffected and emotionally detached teens struggle with the desire to...
Before there was a Fast and the Furious franchise, and before Kathryn Bigelow was making hard-hitting war dramas like The Hurt Locker and Zero Dark Thirty, there was Point Break. Point Break has essentially the same exact plot as the first FF movie, only it came out a decade sooner and featured surfing instead of drag racing as the adrenaline junki...
- The Matrix (1999) Great science fiction has a way of becoming a part of cultural iconography, and The Matrix is nothing if not an example of that. Doing what good science fiction does, taking philosophy and dressing it up in fantastical and futuristic clothing, The Matrix brought everything to propel itself into the zeitgeist.
- The Devil’s Advocate (1997) Many of our favorite action stars have also played lawyers, and though Reeves’ has done it more than once, it was never better than in The Devil’s Advocate.
- Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure (1989) Few know the pre-Hollywood Keanu that existed as a CBC correspondent on local TV, but if he’s ever been seen, it’s in the Bill & Ted franchise.
- Youngblood (1986) Before he dove headfirst into the theater, Keanu Reeves was a good old Ontario hockey boy, playing goalie for De La Salle College in Toronto.

- Point Break. “I run into people all the time who are like, 'Point Break!’" Keanu Reeves r ecalled in 2017, telling a story that is absolutely not about me.
- The Matrix. The Matrix changed everything and anyone who tells you differently is plugged into a different reality. I mean everything: Stunt choreography.
- My Own Private Idaho. Gus Van Zant's My Own Private Idaho opens with street hustler Mike Waters (River Phoenix) waking up on an indeterminate point on an empty road, stretching in both directions as far as the eye can see.
