Yes 11%
No 89%

I don't think he is bad at all, quite good in some roles, especially John Wick. I've heard some people who think he's lacking because as John Wick he is so emotionless and lacks charisma or long, eloquent monologues but that IS the point of John Wick, he's meant to be a strong, silent type and not a charismatic and eloquently spoken hero like Superman or a raging monster like the Hulk. I think Keanu is great as John Wick; his silence and short dialogues still speak volumes about his character.

@Penguin-Dust: He had a lot more energy in his earlier roles but then tragedy struck and that's likely changed his general demeanour both onscreen and off.. but he still does well. John Wick is his best performance since Matrix by far.

I'd say he's a good actor. I wouldn't say great, but bad is definitely underplaying him.

He had one significant misfire with Dracula, but for the most part he picks the right roles and plays them convincingly. A few months ago I saw him in The Neon Demon - he plays a character totally unlike his typical casting choices and nails it.

In Knock Knock, he was terrible, though I don't think he was really trying too hard. Usually however, he seems to be pretty good to me.

I don't think he is bad, he just has a more limited range.

He's not really a good actor but he's good in certain roles. Like most actors who get cast a lot. They find a niche. He doesn't have the greatest emotional range though.

I've seen every Keanu Reeves movie and I gotto say, hands-down, Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure is his best film to date; followed closely by John Wick 2. And come on, the dude is handsome, charming, and simply a badass in RL.

As others of have said he's a good actor but with a seemingly limited range of character portrayal.

He is also quite hit and miss at times but overall I like his movies.

How is he lacking charisma in any way?
