And then came John Wick.
Did we need John Wick to remember how fabulous Keanu Reeves is? Maybe. I don’t know, as I’m looking at it in retrospect. I didn’t see John Wick until very late in 2021 I think, and I was kind of blown away. Was he always this good?
When Keanu Reeves did the Colbert Questionnaire — which he in fact inspired, according to the host — he responded to “Describe the rest of your life in five words,” with the following: “I’m going to be hopeful. Health. Love. Friendship. Create art. Motorcycles.”
A little bit more than five words — although the first part of the phrase was probably an ample answer.
So far, the most recent installments in the Keanu Reeves filmography are a beautiful mix of awesomeness. Let’s hope it so continues, as long as Keanu chooses to keep making movies before he opts to depart this earth.
