He's a prime example of mediocre actor who happens to star in a lot of great movies.

Well I need to be :). I still have much respect for his roles in both Bill and Ted films. And I love the Matrix Trilogy despite him. And Constantine lol. I seem to love most the movies he's in, even though in every single movie his acting is far past mediocrity.

Anyone that can play an 80's stoner and then turn around and play a NOT 80's stoner is an at least decent actor.

He's generally cooler and more natural acting than he is in his movies, so that's a lie.

Nice cool guy does not equal great actor. He pretty much acts the same in every one of his movies, with very little emotion. Even in scenes where you can tell he is trying to show some sort of emotion he still falls flat.

I think hes alright, have to see how well he does in Cowboy Bebop. Probably my favorite anime, but I don't think Reeves a good choice for Spike. Maybe im just looking at his personnalities from the Matrix.

He's probably the most type-cast actor ever. He's even too dull and wooden for the no-personalty, wooden character roles he takes. The Day the Earth Stood Still for example, he was too dull playing a dull alien.
