SUMMARY

Keanu Reeves shared in a Reddit Ask Me Anything segment his top 10 favorite movies of his own.
The actor surprisingly mentioned a really obscure movie as his top favorite.
John Wick made it to the list, but unfortunately, it ranks in the last spot.

Keanu Reeves had a very fruitful decade because of his John Wick movies, but even before he transformed into a vengeful assassin, he was already building an illustrious career with the Matrix trilogy. These two franchises are what Reeves is known for, but the actor has had other projects that are equally worthy to watch.
