Why would you be shocked? He's a fairly accomplished motorcycle rider as well. Lots of time on his hands...

Some might be surprised at how many celebrities participate in the shooting sports. Granted, in today's environment in the entertainment industry, that might prove to be somewhat career limiting. The lesser known celebs, still building careers, keep it pretty much on the down-low. The ones who have "made it", like Reeves, have no need to do that. You won't see them shouting it from the rooftops by any means, but they do quit trying to hide it.

How do we know he is not cheating by bending the bullet path with his mind?

He is pretty trained up on martial arts too, worked with the Gracie family doing the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu deal.

The scene after the woman kills herself in the bath is basically a 3 gun match.

Keanu is awesome, it was great seeing him shoot at Taran's. He's a fantastic shooter and a really cool dude. I'll see if I can dig up some photos I took that day!

I thought the two John Wick movies were very good...for action movies.
And the first Matrix movie is one of my favorites.

Dude, really? He runs the acting gamut from A to B.

I still like watching him and with John Wick his street cred has increased big time.

Cool dude, for sure. One of the few, I'd actually like to hangout with. As for the acting, I think he's improved over years.

Generally I don't like the actual person when talking about main stream actors. Bad on me...never judge by the outward. I'm going off the constant barrage of celebrity news where they are recorded doing things I really don't respect. Same could be said for politicians...but that is another forum.

I have always liked KR, he appears (to me) to be a well grounded person. Is he a top actor...don't know, but I liked some of his movies.

We are in another universe here though. These folks have tremendous pay checks that give them tremendous free time and flexibility to grow. Had I been blessed with the correct genes I would be happy to work out every single day on a pro sports contract. I am sickened when I hear of pro athletes checking in to training camps majorly overweight and need others to push them into condition.

Kudos to KR. Keep going your privileged route.

I saw a vid on a gun forum of him training for John Wick 2
Most impressed with his shooting skills

Its been long enough so I can post these photos










I had a blast when I was with Taran! Wish I had some time to take some video throughout the day, but I was there mainly for business.

I’m not surprised, if you had unlimited funds and unlimited time, what would you be good at?
