Happy Birthday To Charlize Theron, who turns 43 today.
I like Theron but that’s only really happened in the last few years or so. I think Fury Road probably helped. She kicks ass in that!
So here are My Top Ten Charlize Theron Movies, counting down to my favorite (and including everything I’ve seen). As always, these are ranked by how much I like the movie, not her performance:
The Rest That I’ve Seen:
14. The Astronaut’s Wife
13. Reindeer Games (aka Deception)
12. Mighty Joe (I don’t actually remember much of this)
11. A Million Ways To Die In The West
Top Ten:
10. Hancock (I don’t actually remember this very well either…)
9. The Italian Job
8. Snow White And The Huntsman
6. Prometheus
5. The Devil’s Advocate
4. Young Adult
3. Tully
Saw But Don’t Remember At All:
2 Days In The Valley, That Thing You Do!, 15 Minutes
Some I’ve Not Seen:
Celebrity, The Cider House Rules, Men Of Honour, The Legend Of Bagger Vance, Sweet November, Monster, The Life And Death Of Peter Sellers, North Country, Aeon Flux, In The Valley Of Elah, The Road, Dark Places, The Huntsman: Winter’s War, Fast & Furious 8, Gringo
Her performance in Monster is completely transformative.
Yeah… it’s pretty bad that I’ve done this list without seeing that one! I’ll definitely watch it at some point. 🙂
It’s a phenomenal performance.
Don’t bother with Aeon Flux…
It does look pretty awful… She’s certainly done her share of dodgy films
Yes, yes, yes. Mad Max: Fury Road tops mine as well. Soooo good.
Loved Fury Road. We need more action movies like that nowadays. 🙂
Great list! She’s so good in Monster, she’s unrecognisable.. and Sweet November would have made my list.
Yeah, it’s bad that I haven’t seen Monster yet. And I actually have the DVD! And I should really watch Sweet November too since I love Keanu. 🙂
