Reeves was unapologetic about the violent nature of the film, which is rated MA15+ for strong violence.
“It’s about that, it’s a gritty film in a gritty world,” he said.
The 43-year-old star said he had to do a lot of training to get into shape for the part, and admitted getting fit wasn’t as easy now as it used to be.
“I trained, I lifted some weights,” he said.
“It depends on the role – I don’t feel ageless.”
