Russell Crowe (1964-) is a New Zealand born Australian actor. Crowe first gain notice in the Australian movie Romper Stomper. After the success of that movie, he moved to Hollywood movies. From 1997 to 2003, Crowe had a phenomenal run of success. Five of those movies made during that time period, were nominated for Best Picture Oscars® . Gladiator and A Beautiful Mind won the Best Picture Oscar® in 2000 and 2001. He was nominated for Best Actor in 1999, 2000, and 2001. He won the Best Actor Oscar® for Gladiator in 2000.  My favorite Russell Crowe movies did not do very well on the rankings. Those movies are 3:10 to Yuma and A Good Year. When looking at the final table, please realize many of his early films did not make the list because the movies were never released in North America.

  1. Not sure why Crowe is still being crucified over the phone throwing incident. It was almost 6 years ago and many American actors have behaved as badly and more , yet seem to be forgiven.Kiefer Sutherland and DUI ? Christian Bale and his rant ? Sean Penn’s assault on a photographer ?

    1. Liz….agree with you….but people always remember the bad stuff….wow that was 6 years ago…time flies

      Thanks for reading and commenting

  2. I agree Gladiator is the best Russell Crowe movie ever! I actually just watched it last night! awesome movie. I also love Beautiful Mind!

    Great page, great actor

  3. Hi although Russell Crowe has gone off the boil lately he is a brilliant actor. Gladiator was a great movie and he deserved the oscar for it. I thought he should have won the best actor for A Beautiful Mind. Densel Washington is also a great actor, but i didn’t think much of Training Day. Russell Crowe and Densel Washington fought out a magnificent draw in the acting department in American Gangster and proved how good they both were. Russell Crowe should have two or three oscars really. Cheers

    1. PS I thought the 3-10 to Yuma was very poorly directed, ruining what should have been a great movie. I am getting old and grumpy though and harder to please concerning movies. When Russell Crowe and his gang went into that small cowboy town they would have stood out like sore thumbs. It just wasn’t believable, in my eyes. Cheers.

      1. Hey attempted humor…I agree the end was pretty weak…especially with Bale with one leg jumping and running like he was an Olympic competitor….thanks for the mini review on 3:10 to Yuma

    2. Hey attempted humor….as always you give a different but interesting view. I like the line…”off the boil”…as always thanks for the input

    1. I know what you mean BryRog57….in the end….I think the best review is….”it is an alright movie”.

  4. A Good Year was a good movie. Too bad it didn’t do too well at the box office. Gladiator is an excellent movie, glad to see that at the top of the list!
