alexwesterberg Came to film expecting similar content to Key & Peele standup. Jokes were much thinner on the ground. Plot a bit crazy to take too seriously. Romantic interest being a police officer made no sense (-1) but them going to jail anyway was a nice twist (+1).Rewatch from when I first watched it in Denver, Colorado.

jellopuke The premise is a little stretched in parts, but there's some really great comedy bits in here. Devolves into an action movie at the end, but they kind of had themselves backed into a corner. They didn't take themselves too seriously overall, so you can overlook the fact that Key suddenly became a great shot and had no problem killing after a movie of being chicken. This was a decent comedy and worth watching.

Prismark10 Rell (Jordan Peele) is a slacker just dumped by his girlfriend when suddenly a cute kitten shows up which cheers him up. He calls the kitten Keanu. When Keanu goes missing he gets his cousin Clarence (Keegan-Michael Key) to get the kitten back. Clarence is a nice guy whose wife has gone for the weekendIt turns out a local drugs gang might had mistakenly taken Keanu so Rell and Clarence adopt a gangster persona to get in with them. However the two then fall foul of two hit men the Allentown Boys.This is a rather a hit and miss action comedy with an absurd premise which makes little sense. I felt it was too uneven, rather undeveloped but it gets better as it goes along. Probably when George Michael starts singing Faith in a hazy drug induced dream sequence where Keanu speaks with the voice of Keanu Reeves.

grantss Clarence (Keegan-Michael Key) is a conservative suburbanite with a wife and child. His cousin, Rell (Jordan Peele), is a bong-smoking slacker. Then one day Rell finds a kitten on his doorstep and immediately takes it in. He names the kitten Keanu. A few weeks later, in a case of mistaken identity, members of the Blips drug gang break into his house, ransack it and take Keanu. Rell and Clarence set off into Blips territory to recover Keanu.Only watched this because it stars Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele. Loved their comedy show, Key and Peele, and a full-length comedy feature film starring them sounded promising.The movie certainly retains much of the trademark Key and Peele humour. Add in an absurd-yet-fun plot and a cute kitten and you have a good comedy movie. Some great scenes and lines. Key and Peele are in fine form in the lead roles, with spot-on delivery and the wonderful comedic chemistry that their TV show demonstrated.Not brilliant though. As with many transitions from TV to film, the momentum and ideas seem to diminish as the movie goes on - the core plot line proves difficult to sustain for 90+ minutes. The comedy is still there, but the movie becomes more uneven the further into it you go. Some pretty weak scenes towards the end. The plot becomes quite haphazard and farcical.Overall, however, Keanu is good fun and well worth watching.
