Ranking Every Keanu Reeves Movie Worst To Best

58. Letting Go (1985)

This little-seen TV movie stars John Ritter and Sharon Gless as a damaged pair of star-crossed lovers, and is largely propped up by Ritter's affecting performance in the central role.

Directed by Jack Bender years before he became a veteran TV director on show such as Lost, The Sopranos, and Game of Thrones, Letting Go is assembled from basic parts but effective enough - and sometimes that's all you need.

As for Keanu? He makes a tiny cameo as an obnoxious teenager getting up in Ritter's grill, as will surely prove distracting to anyone who wasn't aware Reeves would be showing up.

57. Babes In Toyland (1986)

One of the oddest films in Reeves' entire filmography, Babes in Toyland is a TV movie remake of the 1961 Christmas musical of the same name, starring Reeves opposite a young Drew Barrymore and Mr. Miyagi himself, the late Pat Morita.

As amusing as it is to see Keanu in full heartthrob dreamboat mode here, the film's brutal, soul-draining 140-minute runtime makes it a tough recommend despite its sheer weirdness.

Worth it for Keanu obsessives, perhaps, but otherwise you're better off just watching the best bits on YouTube.
