Film making

One actor who has been in the spotlight quite often recently is Mel Gibson. I’d be lying if I said his recent stunts and drama has not tarnished my opinion of him badly. I don’t think he will ever star in another movie, and I think the best thing for him to do would be to remain silent for the next few years. That is not to say he has not had some amazing films though.

But which of Mel’s films were his best? Here are my personal favorites.

One movie that I will include on this list is Ransom. What an awesome movie this was. Mel Gibson stars as a wealthy businessman who has his little son kidnapped, only to be held for a ransom. Mel’s character turns things around and puts a ransom on the kidnapper’s head.

One movie that must be mentioned on any list of great Mel Gibson films is Braveheart. I haven’t tried to watch this movie recently, but I truly hope that Mel Gibson’s recent antics won’t tarnish the role of William Wallace for me. This remains one of my favorite films of all time.

Another great movie that stars Mel Gibson is The Man Without A Face. I am actually impartial to this film because one of my good friends had a small role in it. Mel plays a recluse with a disfigured face in this movie.

It is tough to make a list of Mel Gibson’s greatest films without including a movie form the Lethal Weapon franchise. My personal favorite was Lethal Weapon 4. This movie also stars Danny Glover, Joe Pesci and Jet Li.

Finally, I will include We Were Soldiers on this list. Maybe I am just a sucker for Vietnam War movies, but I really enjoyed how this film told the story from both the American and Vietnamese soldiers perspective. If you like war films, this is worth seeing.

As it stands, this is my all time list of my favorite Mel Gibson movies. I doubt we will see any more movies from him, so this list is probably not going to change.
