From Shawshank Redemption and The Dark Knight trilogy to Unforgiven and Now You See Me, it's Morgan Freeman's best movies (and the worst) by Tomatometer!
- The Shawshank Redemption. Tim Robbins, Morgan Freeman, Bob Gunton. 1,509 votes. The Shawshank Redemption is a powerful, emotionally charged drama that follows the lives of two prisoners convicted in the notorious Shawshank State Penitentiary.
- Seven. Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman, Gwyneth Paltrow. 1,002 votes. This chilling psychological thriller features Morgan Freeman as Detective Lieutenant William Somerset, who teams up with Brad Pitt's character, Detective David Mills, to solve a series of gruesome murders inspired by the seven deadly sins.
- Lean on Me. Morgan Freeman, Robert Guillaume, Beverly Todd. 557 votes. Based on true events, Lean on Me stars Morgan Freeman as Joe Clark – a controversial high school principal with unconventional methods for turning around troubled schools – in this gripping drama that showcases his commitment to education reform.
- Driving Miss Daisy. Morgan Freeman, Jessica Tandy, Dan Aykroyd. 775 votes. Set against the backdrop of the American South, Driving Miss Daisy stars Morgan Freeman as Hoke Colburn, a devoted chauffeur to Jessica Tandy's character, Daisy Werthan.
- Licorice Pizza. Film. Comedy. What a joy Paul Thomas Anderson’s freewheeling film turned out to be. It cartwheels around the San Fernando Valley armed with all the local knowledge you’d expect (PTA, of course, grew up there), a cast of maverick characters – real (Bradley Cooper’s deranged movie exec Jon Peters) and otherwise (Sean Penn’s William Holden-like Hollywood warhorse, Jack Holden) – and a script loaded with zingers.
- Nomadland. Film. Drama. A van-dweller who drives across the US badlands and shits in a bucket is not normally what Best Picture winners are made of. But with a commanding Frances McDormand at the wheel, support from a cast of real-life nomads and indie superstar Chloé Zhao behind the camera, Nomadland was a naturalist drama that got right under the skin of late capitalist America and its disenfranchised outsiders.
- The Father. Film. Drama. Anthony Hopkins was a deserving Best Actor winner for his lead role in a dementia drama with a twist. But major props, too, to director Florian Zeller.
- The Power of the Dog. Jane Campion hadn’t made a movie since Bright Star nearly 15 years ago. As Twitter might have put it: ‘Da fuk, #Camps?!’ Her subversive western showed what we’ve all been missing: superlative control of mood, glorious widescreen vistas and a smuggled-in subtext that uses the traditional trappings of the western to strip down alpha masculinity to its faulty parts.
Vanquish: Directed by George Gallo. With Morgan Freeman, Ruby Rose, Patrick Muldoon, Nick Vallelonga. A mother, Victoria, is trying to put her dark past as a Russian drug courier behind her, but retired cop Damon forces Victoria to do his bidding by holding her daughter hostage.
Wicked: Directed by Taryn O'Neill. With Kevin Joy, Liam Hall, Anna Maiche, Elyse Mirto. Ivy Morgan, a college student in New Orleans, falls for Ren Owens, the last person she expected to enter her rigidly controlled life. Based on the novel 'Wicked' by Jennifer L. Armentrout.
