THE MEAN STREETS — Whether you love or hate his acting, Keanu Reeves sure has made a lot of blockbusters and hits in his career.

Sometimes it's unclear why some of his role choices and movies become hits, but they're hits nonetheless. His breakout role in "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure" will forever be considered an '80s classic, and people still talk about the Matrix movies 16 years later, but you can't say "Speed" has really stood the test of time.

Until today.

Jimmy Kimmel and Reeves revisited "Speed" last week with a third installment of the franchise (but not really) called "A Reasonable Speed."

The movie trailer skit takes us on a not-quite-as-intense-as-"Speed" journey as Kimmel — a criminal of some sort as proven by his perfectly terrible wig — hops in a sports car to escape capture from Reeves. But the car chase rules have changed, and this chase is all about safety first.

This film hits theaters never.
