Every Charlize Theron Movie, Ranked

Photo-Illustration: Vulture, Paramount Pictures, Newmarket Films, Netflix, Focus Features and Warner Bros. This article has been updated to reflect Charlize Theron’s most recent work.

Below is our ranking of every Theron performance. To be clear, we’re not ranking the movies but merely her role in them. We skipped voice performances — sorry, Kubo and the Two Strings — but we did include her one-scene parts when she was still an up-and-comer. There’s a lot of gold here — and even when the film she’s in lets her down, she’s always far more composed and commanding than when she bit that bank teller’s head off so long ago.

40. Waking Up in Reno It’s not entirely clear why Theron decided to do a “redneck road comedy,” let alone one with Patrick Swayze, but here she is nonetheless, as “Candy,” an Arkansas girl who just wants to get pregnant. This is an inexplicable movie that once again showed Theron trying to find the right comedic note and picking the wrong film all together. She spends most of the movie loudly chewing gum.

36. The Last Face Yup, this Sean Penn–directed debacle is as horrible as you’ve heard. But we’ll go to bat for Theron, who brings a lot of compassion to her impossible role as an international aid organizer working in the most dangerous parts of Africa. Against this backdrop of devastation and human atrocities, The Last Face tells a doomed, terrible love story in which Theron’s character falls for a hunky doctor who’s equally affected by the horrors around him.

32. The Cider House Rules There’s something so electric about Theron’s presence that makes it hard for filmmakers to plug her into staid awards-bait — her natural liveliness overwhelms the stuffiness around her. That’s especially true with The Cider House Rules, the Oscar-winning adaptation of the John Irving novel that’s a rather tepid, syrupy look at love and growing up.

28. The Legend of Bagger Vance It’s not easy to mute the charisma of Matt Damon, Will Smith, and Charlize Theron, but Robert Redford, using the transformative power of golf, somehow finds a way. This dull sports film has the ugly trope of the Magical Negro at its center, but it’s not any better elsewhere: The whole thing is shot in this “respectful” haze that makes you feel like you’re watching through a museum display.

TOFOP

Indeed. She's very good in all her films.

She's one of the most overrated actresses, talent-wise and looks-wise. Just bland, and I can't think of a movie she's been in which didn't suck. I wonder what's the real story behind her success.
