Kitten, more, pleaseEarly in Keanu, the first feature film from the comedy duo of Key & Peele, Clarence Goobril and his cousin Rell Williams walk into a strip club called HPV – that’s Hot Party Vixens – on a quest to recover Rell’s kidnapped kitten, Keanu.
Keanu gets a lot of mileage out of the contrasts between Rell and Clarence, often to hilarious effect.
Rell and Clarence are in very different places at the beginning of Keanu.
Rell instantly falls in love, naming the brown tabby Keanu.
The hunt for Keanu eventually results in a full-scale gang war between Cheddar’s 17th Street Blips and a Mexican cartel led by Bacon Diaz.
Bacon happens to be related to the dealer that the Allentown brothers took out, and he happens to want Keanu as well.
While Rell’s pursuit of the titular cat propels Keanu forward, it’s the character of Clarence who actually grows the most over the course of the film.
To be clear, you don’t have to be familiar with Key & Peele to find Keanu funny.
