Want to know the best Luke Wilson movies? How about the worst Luke Wilson movies? Curious about Luke Wilson box office grosses or whichLuke Wilson movie picked up the most Oscar® nominations? Need to know which Luke Wilson movie got the best reviews from critics and audiences? Well you have come to the right place….because we have all of that information.
Luke Wilson (1971-) is an American actor known for his roles in films such as Idiocracy, Old School, Bottle Rocket, The Royal Tenenbaums, Blue Streak, Bongwater, and Legally Blonde. His IMDb page shows 74 acting credits since 1994. This page will rank Luke Wilson 35 movies from Best to Worst in six different sortable columns of information. Television roles, cameos, shorts and straight to DVD movies were not included in the rankings.
For a few short minutes yesterday, I thought Luke Wilson had passed away in a fatal car accident. Thankfully that was not the case….though he was involved in a fatal car accident…but he was the hero and not the victim. I have liked Luke since seeing him in 1994’s Bottle Rocket. A few years ago we gathered up all the information on his movies for an UMR page, but never got around to publishing it…..well…..his close the other day…got me motivated to finally get a Luke Wilson page out there.

Hey Dan….thanks for the lists on Mr. Luke Wilson….good to know he has a spot in the Top 1000…..he has quietly had a nice long pretty successful career. So glad that career did not come to an abrupt ending the other day. Lots of comedy stars in the first list….with lots of movies with his brother Owen, Will Ferrell and Ben Stiller.
Looking at the other two lists…things that caught my eye…Sally Field…off the list……sad….Raquel Welch…not surprised at all. 22 Oscar winners is pretty good…especially for the many low budget movies he has appeared in over the years. Good information as always.
Thank goodness he is still around. Love his heroics. Nice page. Love him in the Legally Blonde movies.
Right there with you Helakoski……I thought the first Legally Blonde was ok….have not seen the second one. Thanks for checking out our latest page.
I’ve seen 12 Luke Wilson films, that includes the first Charlie’s Angels movie which is missing from the chart.
3:10 to Yuma is probably my favorite movie here, but I also enjoyed The Royal Tenenbaums, Battle for Terra and the first Charlie’s Angels movie.
I was reading about that car accident earlier today, Luke’s not just a screen hero.
Vote Up!
Hey Steve
1. I have enjoyed his performances since seeing him in Bottle Rocket…which I actually saw in theaters….one of the few that can make that claim.
2. I have seen 25 of these movies….loved Bottle Rocket, Royal Tenenbaums, Middle Men (which is about how porn took over the internet) and You Kill Me….which has an excellent Ben Kingsley role.
3. Yep….he was a hero…..so glad he is not gone and a hero…..for about 10 minutes I thought he was gone.
Thanks for checking out our Luke page.
