  2. 4 days ago · In Country (1989)68%. #18. Critics Consensus: With a slow build to a dramatic conclusion, In Country benefits largely from its strong acting, particularly by Emily Lloyd in the lead role. Synopsis: Samantha Hughes (Emily Lloyd) lives with her uncle, Emmett Smith (Bruce Willis), in a small Kentucky town.

    I know it's just a voice role, but I'd be remiss if I didn't mention theLook Who's Talking movies, and specifically the first film, as Willis delivers a hilarious voice performance that conveys the wonder of being a baby. Baby Mikey is an iconic movie baby thanks to Willis, who gets a fun sparring partner in the sequel in the form of Roseanne Barr....

    If this list were about my own favorite movies, I would've saved this spot for Color of Night, one of my favorite guilty pleasures. But Rian Johnson's smart sci-fi movie Looper is probably the best thing Willis has done in the last 15 years. The film allows him to play his age. He no longer has to be indestructible. It's a film about time, and what...

    I feel like this 2012 movie doesn't get its due as far as Wes Anderson's oeuvre is concerned. I adore this movie, and even though Willis has a supporting role, it was great to see him fit right in with Anderson regulars like Frances MdDormand, Tilda Swinton and Bill Murray. This is another opportunity to experiment with comedy under the direction o...

    Again, Willis gets to show off his low-key knack for comedy in this 1992 cult classic from director Robert Zemeckis. Willis is paired with legends Meryl Streep and Goldie Hawn, and really, the movie belongs to them. Willis is just along for the ride. But he also goes holds his own against his formidable co-stars. Streep and Hawn play bitter rivals ...

    There are people who prefer The Fifth Element, which came out two years later and was a bit more "fun," but I preferred Terry Gilliam's oddball sci-fi movie 12 Monkeys. Willis plays James Cole, a prisoner who is chosen to be sent back in time to find the origin of a killer virus so that scientists in the future can devise a cure. It's kind of the p...

    This is one of two Michael Bay movies that are part of the Criterion Collection, and while I may personally prefer The Rock, the big-ass rock movie Armageddonstill rocks on its own, and so does Willis' performance as Harry Stamper. This is another great character for Willis, as Stamper is considered the foremost deep sea oil driller in the world. W...

    As far as comic book movies go, Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller's adaptation of the latter's graphic novel Sin City ranks among the very best, and though the film is ensemble-driven in nature, Willis is clearly positioned as the star. His John Hartigan is positioned as a hero early on, when he tries to stop a child murderer (Nick Stahl) from rapi...

    Willis knew that M. Night Shyamalan had gotten a special performance out of him, and I suspect he jumped at the chance to work with the director again on his follow-up Unbreakable, which is my personal favorite of M. Night's movies. Willis plays David Dunn, a former football star whose dream of going pro is shattered, along with his leg, in a horri...

    Willis practically reinvented himself with this 1999 classic from M. Night Shyamalan. He plays Malcolm Crowe, a child psychologist who begins working with a young boy named Cole Sear (Haley Joel Osment), who claims he can see dead people. To say that Malcolm has his work cut out for him would be an understatement. Fortunately, Willis is up to the t...

    I wonder who thanked their lucky stars more when Bruce Willis agreed to co-star in Quentin Tarantino's magnum opus -- Tarantino, or Willis himself. The film surely benefitted from Willis' global profile, but the role of Butch Coolidge must've come as nourishment for Willis' soul at that point in his career, which followed several high-profile flops...
