Ranking Every Keanu Reeves Movie Worst To Best

16. Thumbsucker (2005)

Mike Mills' directorial debut might sound like a stereotypically Sundance-worthy indie drama - revolving around a young man's (Lou Taylor Pucci) compulsion to suck his thumb - but thanks to a sensitive script, this is actually an insightful and uncommonly mature coming-of-age movie.

Though Pucci's performance is the spectacular highlight, Reeves is brilliantly cast as his left-field orthodontist.

This is without even getting into the rest of the supporting cast, including the likes of Tilda Swinton, Vincent D'Onofrio, Benjamin Bratt, and Vince Vaughn.

15. Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey (1991)

Though largely accepted to be inferior to its predecessor, Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey also pulls a Gremlins 2 and gets seriously weird as sequels go, throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks.

This is a film where Bill and Ted "die," are replaced by robot doppelgangers, and face off against Death - the latter played in superbly scene-stealing fashion by William Sadler.

It doesn't always work, but the superbly imaginative ideas and visuals ensure it's never a dull sit.
