Keanu

Keanu is a 2016 comedy film directed by Peter Atencio and starring Keegan-Michael Key, Jordan Peele, and Tiffany Haddish. The story revolves around two best friends, Clarence (played by Keegan-Michael Key) and Rell (played by Jordan Peele), who find themselves on a mission to save Rell's kidnapped cat, Keanu.

The movie begins with Rell, who is struggling to come to terms with a recent breakup, finding a kitten on his doorstep. He quickly becomes attached to the cat and names him Keanu. However, when Rell's home is burgled and Keanu is taken, he is devastated, and he and Clarence set out to find his beloved cat.

Their search leads them to a drug dealer, Cheddar (played by Method Man), who has taken Keanu and accidentally believes the cat belongs to someone else. In order to get their cat back, Clarence and Rell pretend to be drug dealers and become wrapped up in Cheddar's world of crime and violence.

Throughout the film, the duo faces numerous challenges, including gun battles, car chases, and encounters with dangerous gang members. However, despite the danger they face, they remain committed to their mission and their friendship.

Along the way, they enlist the help of Haddish's character, Hi-C, who is Cheddar's top assassin but has a soft spot for Clarence. As the trio navigates the dangerous world of drug dealing, they also deal with personal issues, including Rell's broken heart and Clarence's fear of proving his manliness to his wife.

The film is a satirical take on buddy cop films, gangster movies, and action comedies, with Key and Peele's signature humor infused throughout. The film's main themes include the bond of friendship and loyalty, the power of cat ownership, and the dangers of getting involved in crime.

Keanu features strong performances from all three leads, with Key and Peele showcasing their impeccable comedic timing and Haddish stealing the show with her fierce and funny portrayal of Hi-C. The film also boasts an impressive supporting cast, including Luis Guzmán, Nia Long, and Will Forte.

Overall, Keanu is a hilarious and action-packed comedy that showcases Key and Peele's unique comedic style. With its witty humor and clever satire, it's a must-see for fans of the duo and anyone in need of a good laugh.
