to think that Keanu Reeves has no right to look that good at 50

Went to see John Wick with DH at the weekend. Very enjoyable well choreographed nonsense.

But no way does Keanu Reeves look or move like he's 50.

I LOVE the YouTube clip! I always knew he was a gent. And his beautiful Hawaiian bone structure doesn't hurt...

WhatchaMaCalllit · 14/04/2015 13:41

What is JBJ advertising for Versace there? Sheets??? Fake tan (not that he needs it)???

I don't know where to look!!!

I think Keanu, Jon and don't forget Robert (Downey Jr) are all in the 50's club....they look mighty fine for 50!!!

ChiefClerkDrumknott · 14/04/2015 13:52

He's such a dude doesn't care how bad his acting is I think he can fit well in the right role, such as The Matrix or, dare I say it, Constantine.

If he offered me his seat on the train I'd tell him to stay where he was and sit on his lap Grin

squoosh · 14/04/2015 13:55

I like your style Chief. He'd be too polite to say anything other than 'oh yes, do make yourself comfortable'.

MrsPeterQuill · 14/04/2015 13:57

I've fancied Keanu since his Bill and Ted days. I went to see Bogus Journey three times at the pictures Blush (I'm not proud of myself but I was only 15).

I love Point Break, it has some of the cheesiest lines in film history and Patrick Swayze's best performance AND Keanu. Winner!

Someone mentioned Bon Jovi- he's had so much plastic surgery, he looks like he's got a pair of lurex tights over his head. My Keanu does not look like that!

netty7070 · 14/04/2015 14:00

I remember going to see Speed with a friend who didn't know what all the fuss was about. After 2 hours of Keanu at his finest she emerged looking dazed and horny.

Dinky - so if someone objects to a statement, they are being 'touchy? Hmm

ApprenticeViper · 14/04/2015 14:13

I never saw the appeal of Keanu when I was a teenager (I'm 38 now so was prime Bill and Ted fodder at the time), but he was on TV the other weekend (Jonathan Ross, maybe?) and my oh my what a beautiful man. He's definitely grown into his looks.

I so would Grin

suzannecanthecan · 14/04/2015 15:08

perfectly possible to have a good physique at 50 (although Bon Jovi looks like he's had pharmaceutical help)

Of course. Unless they are "professionally offended" or "frothing".........

MonstrousRatbag · 14/04/2015 15:28

There have been periods of looking less appealing, but fortunately they are clearly over:

In this instance Caitlin yes, it's a light hearted thread with clear tongue in cheek.

ChiefClerkDrumknott · 14/04/2015 15:44

I like your style Chief. He'd be too polite to say anything other than 'oh yes, do make yourself comfortable'.

I'm sure I had a dream like that Wink

Hakluyt · 14/04/2015 15:45

"Light hearted". Yep- that's another one!

LikeIcan · 14/04/2015 17:41

Maybe I am a bit touchy ( being in my late 40's ) but I'm just sick of comments like this. For a start 50 isn't even that old.

Floisme · 14/04/2015 18:15

I hope you're not getting uppity, Caitlin, Hakluyt and LikeIcan? Smile

Hakluyt · 14/04/2015 18:17

I'm one of those old biddies who dare take up space in the world a young person might need.........

CaitlinNewStart · 14/04/2015 18:19

Grin Floisme - the ageism on MN at the moment is unhinging me!

Christinayangstwistedsister · 14/04/2015 18:19

Ohhhh a bit of Keanu on a drizzly Tuesday evening....

Floisme · 14/04/2015 18:21

Me too caitlin - I had to step away yesterday.

CaitlinNewStart · 14/04/2015 18:24

May I just say, Floisme, that you're looking mighty fine for your age Wink

weirdhamster · 14/04/2015 18:25

i always get embarrassed for him watching him on tv, he looks like he'd rather be anywhere else

Floisme · 14/04/2015 18:27

Caitlin Grin

Christinayangstwistedsister · 14/04/2015 18:28

Yes, you lot are need to stop going to your gcs football and shuffle off to the retirement village and for god sake look your age Wink

Bambambini · 14/04/2015 18:28

Saw a bit of Bill and Ted the other day. God, he was absolutely beautiful when he was younger - thinking Point Break and Speed. Still very handsome now, of course.

I also saw him interviewed once - he came over like a really gentle and relaxed lovely guy with a subtle sense of humour. His personality seems to match his beautiful face. I like Keanu.
