Keanu Reeves answering Stephen Colbert's quickfire questions is funnier than it has any right to be

For some reason, pretty much everything Keanu Reeves says ends up being gold.

That’s certainly the case in the above Late Show video, where everyone’s favourite bullet-dodger sits down opposite Stephen Colbert for some quickfire questions — and then proceeds to think deeply about every single answer, even when the question is something as mundane as “best sandwich?” (“Best sandwich, you mean, like, for me?” is his initial response).

Are Reeves’ answers up there with Jennifer Lawrence’s answers? It’s a close call. But Reeves’ back-and-forth with Colbert is undeniably entertaining to watch.
