In general those are aggressive openings. Ruy Lopez and Sicilian especially are rated as some of the more aggressive openings available.

French Defense I have not heard called aggressive before, but maybe that is just part of the genius of Mikhail, sprinkle in some clogged openings so your opponent never truly knows what is coming.

Black is a little harder to define what an aggressive opening is, since it is somewhat relative to the opening white began the game with.

Personally I think it is a great learning tool to use another GM's openings. The main reason is there is such an available database of the GM's games, so if you are playing electronically or notating your own game, you can always go back and see if historical games resemble your own and where the GM may have differed.
