Want to know the best Anna Kendrick movies? How about the worst Anna Kendrick movies? Curious about Anna Kendrick box office grosses or which Anna Kendrick movie picked up the most Oscar® nominations? Need to know which Anna Kendrick movie got the best reviews from critics and audiences and which got the worst reviews? Well, you have come to the right place…. because we have all of that information and much more.
Anna Kendrick (1985-) is an Oscar® nominated American actress. Her IMDb page shows over 63 acting credits since 2003. This page will rank Anna Kendrick movies from Best to Worst. Cameos, television appearances, direct to home entertainment videos and shorts were not included in the rankings.
The other day my oldest daughter, Katelyn, suggested that it might be a good idea to write a Ultimate Movie Rankings page on somebody that younger readers might actually know. It seems that my most recent movie subjects, Olivia de Havilland and Norma Shearer, do not really generate much conversation among her friends and college classmates. So following her suggestion, I have decided to write a movie page on somebody that was not only born in the 1980s but a star on the rise…..not to mention my daughter’s favorite actress.

Possibly Interesting Facts About Anna Kendrick
1. Anna Kendrick was born and raised in Portland, Maine.
2. Anna Kendrick is the second youngest person to ever be nominated for a Tony Award.
3. Anna Kendrick first box office success was her role in Twilight. Her IMDb page gives her credit for 4 Twilight movies. My in-house Anna Kendrick expert has informed me that the first Twilight movie is the only one in which her part was big enough to be included in the above rankings. BoxOfficeMojo.com does not give her credit for any of the Twilight movies.
4. Speaking of Twilight…Anna Kendrick is the only actress/actor of the ‘Twilight Saga’ to EVER be nominated for an Oscar®. I am guessing that might remain an accurate fact for many years to come. Then again Taylor Lautner was pretty memorable in Grown Ups 2.
5. Anna Kendrick’s Pitch Perfect has developed an avid following over the last few years. Pitch Perfect is the “Frozen” for many young adults.
6. Anna Kendrick has one of the most entertaining Twitter feeds out there….well worth following her usually funny thoughts. AnnaKendrickTwitter

For comments….all you need is a name and a comment….please ignore the rest.
Happy 34th birthday to Anna.
Hey Teresa21391…..thanks for the birthday wishes for Ms. Kendrick….she is a favorite in my house for sure. Thanks for stopping by.
Saw her new movie A Simple Favor. Very entertaining.
Hey Candice….glad you liked A Simple Favor….it did pretty well at the box office this weekend. Thanks for stopping by.
I think she is going to become of the great ones. I loved her in Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates. I am curious how it compares to her other movies. How long before you include a new movie?
Hey Vance….my oldest daughter agrees with you 100%…she has been a very active actress…..so active in fact that I have fallen behind….I need to add in Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates to the page. Thanks for the headsup.
