Starting off with one of Brendan Fraser's sillier films, Airheadsis a fairly goofy comedy that boasts a fun cast of characters and a unique story. Three rockstar bandmates end up holding a radio station hostage because they didn’t play their demo, and yes, they are not very smart. Starring Adam Sandler, Steve Buscemi, Brendan Fraser, and an always ...
For the first time and not the last time, Brendan Fraser plays a cartoon-like troglodyte in Encino Man. Two high schoolers are trying to dig a pool in their backyard and end up finding a caveman frozen in ice, they then name him and adopt him as their own, gaining a lot of attention from peers. The best parts of this movie are Brendan Fraser as Lin...
Five years after Encino Man comes George of the Jungle: a wacky yet witty slapstick comedy that introduced Fraser to the millennial audience. Raised by gorillas in the jungle, George is a clumsy Tarzan who slams into a lot of trees and falls in love with a wandering traveler from San Francisco. George instantly became an icon for younger audiences ...
Taking a turn away from the comedy genre comes Gods and Monsters, a life-to-movie story about the last days of James Whale – director of Frankenstein (1931) – and his habits. Ian McKellen puts forth a stellar performance, which helps to boost the performance of Fraser. Fraser does a pretty good job as the angry and a bit homophobic Clayton boone, a...
Back to one of his more comfortable comedic roles, Fraser dances with the devil in Bedazzled. Socially awkward office employee Elliot (Brendan Fraser) is given a chance to make his dreams come for a price: give his soul to the devil (Elizabeth Hurley). For the 7 wishes he is granted, he spends his time wishing for power, riches, sensitivity, and in...
In what is probably his best dramatic performance, Brendan Fraser plays a Jewish student named David Greene at a high-end preparatory high school riddled with with anti-semetic discrimination. Coming from a rougher neighborhood than his new classmates, Greene makes a name for himself as tough and talented. Fraser’s overall performance in School Tie...
To reprise the most Fraser-y role of his career, Brendan Fraser returns as Rick O’Connell in The Mummy Returns. While this sequel was certainly not as celebrated as the first, it still absolutely delivers the action-packed comedy that audiences loved. Besides a fairly silly CGI Dwayne Johnson towards the end, this movie doubles down on the action f...
In the most modern movie on this list, Brendan Fraser brings his A-game as Alden Pyle for The Quiet American.Set in Saigon during the Vietnam War, expats Thomas Fowler (Michael Caine) and Alden Pyle are both there for their own reasons but end up pining over the same entrancing woman. Though the plot is a bit convoluted, once the movie comes to its...
In a hilariously quippy – if not a bit dated – heartfelt comedy, Brendan Fraser wins the hearts of all as the sincerely sweet Adam Weber in Blast from the Past. Due to Calvin Weber’s (Christopher Walken) obsessive doomsday prepping habits and a malfunctioning jet crashing into their backyard, the Weber family spends 35 years underground in their bo...
Endlessly entertaining, thrilling (in it’s time), and pure fun, The Mummyis most definitely the best Brendan Fraser movie of all time. The one that brought Fraser true stardom, this movie definitely has its corny 90s moments but delivers on all the action and scares that audiences didn’t even know they were looking for. The truest fans of Fraser lo...
