A sad disappointment.We do not deserve Keanu Reeves, certified nice guy and high-profile celeb. This is basically one of their TV sketches dragged out 90 minutes longer than the concept holds up. Worst of all, the whole effort tries too hard and is rarely funny. Even with this absurd concept, the humor is seldom wacky (and Will Forte's drug dealer is especially embarrassing). Their alternate characters are trite variations of street thugs they've played before and the conceit gets old pretty quickly.

Yes, it sounds like there's potential for silly business, but what's results is just dumb. In this big screen effort, they play 2 regular guys who infiltrate the gangsta world to retrieve a pet kitten. I've enjoyed every episode of their Comedy Central series.

Keanu is hilariously funny, intelligent, surprising.and I laughed my head off throughout the entire film. It is all riotously good fun! The brilliance of the film lies, however, in it innumerable layers of movie history refereneces, the absurdist play on action film tropes, and the irony of its social commentary. Our two totally assimilated Black heroes, Rell (Jordan Peele) and his cousin Clarence (Keegan Michael Key) take on bad-ass gangta personas to recover Keanu from its series of captors, especially the evil Cheddar (played by Method Man). The storyline follows the adventures of the title character-THE most adorable kitten eve to grace the silver screen-and all those who fall in love with Keanu, from gangsta thugs to the audience itself, which quickly starts to love the kitten. Key & Peele are back! Those of us who have been missing the brilliant comedy and trenchant social commentary of the much-love, recently-ended TV show are going to be THRILLED by "Keanu" and those who do not know the show will instantly become devotees as the result of seeing this film.
