9. Speed 2: Cruise Control
With Speed proving to be one of the best action films of the 90's (as I am writing this I have just realised Speed is 20 years old next year and it has made me feel ancient.) with its combination of Keanu Reeves on board a speeding object, the sequel tried to improve on the original by trading up from a bus to a cruise liner but unfortunately it had to trade down from Keanu Reeves to Jason Patric. The studio obviously thought retaining Sandra Bullock and that bloke who gets his car stolen would be enough to recreate the quality of the original, but they were very much mistaken. Without wanting to mince words, Speed 2 is crap. Rubbish acting, sub-par action and full of so many unintentionally hilarious moment's that had this been a Hot Shots film we would celebrate it's comic genius, it is just not a patch on the brilliant original. For all the stick Keanu Reeves gets for his wooden acting style, he does make some solid career choices and avoiding this mess was definitely amongst his best.
