The Greatest Brad Pitt Movies

A River Runs Through It
A beautiful movie that takes place in Montana where the hills and trees are sprawling. Great acting all the way around and great directing by Robert Redford.

12 Monkeys
A staple with sci-fi fans, 12 Monkeys has a twisted plot that can be easy to lose track of. Proves, like many of his movies, that Pitt does not need to play the pretty-boy.

Se7en
What a great movie to be in, this is the role I think other actors must be jealous they didn’t get. A masterpiece by David Fincher.

Fight Club
Another David Fincher winner. Obviously Fincher and Pitt make a good team. Fight club is perhaps in my top five favorite movies of all time. Such a fun movie and amazing twist.

Snatch
A cool movie by Guy Ritchie that places Pitt as a traveling con man/gypsy. Fun to watch like every other Guy Ritchie movie.

Ocean’s Eleven
The original, well not really, that was a remake of the original. This one is just better in most ways than other Oceans movies.

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
I really liked this one. Brad Pitt was great, but so was Casey Affleck. I think this is more of a story about Robert Ford than Jesse James. Affleck gives such a strong performance, the tension in this movie is palpable.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Probably my least favorite on this list, but still good. He doesn’t get much of a chance to flex his acting muscles, but is still an interesting and fun story.

Inglourious Basterds
One of Quentin Tarantino’s great works. The tension that was created in the downstairs bar scene was so strong I was sweating.
