By Jevon Phillips and Stephanie Lysaght

Remember when Keanu Reeves was a surfer dude or a goofy guy in "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure?" No? Well, he's put those days behind him. The fun smile? Gone. The laugh? Lips sealed. Air guitar? Silent.

It's long been noted that Reeves is a little less emotive than many would care for in a leading man. His latest role as a planet-killing alien in "The Day the Earth Stood Still" plays into that, and indeed, takes advantage of his stony talents. Here are some other roles and photos in which the "Matrix" actor, willingly or not, perfects the best blank stare in Hollywood.
