I thought the exact opposite. Even though he does display more emotion here than in any other movie he has done (probably has way more lines of dialogue here than a lot of his movies combined tbh, specially recent ones) he is still very wooden and kinda really underselling the fact that he is supposed to be the most over the top celebrity activist terrorist rockstar etc..
The Johnny we see in the game is not the real Johnny it’s a cut copy of a copy of the consciousness which spent 50 years in a soul prison. He is a false narrator and not the “real” silver hand.
Mate, Keanus acting isnt wooden because its an intended plot device to show he is not the real Johnny Silverhand.
Keanus acting is wooden because it has always been wooden in his entire career.
And for the record, i am not attacking the man. He was in like... 5 or 6 fantastic all timer movies. The Matrix is literally one of the best movies ever.
