As we originally researched the numbers that determine the Ultimate Movie Rankings Score,we always have a personal favorite that we hope comes out on top of the list. In this case our favorite Sandra Bullock (1964-) movie is Speed. As we got near the end of our number finding adventure, we realized two things. First, we did not see how Speed would be able to hold off The Blindside for the number one spot. All of that became irrelevant when made Gravity. Gravity is not only her Top UMR movie but made our All-Time Top 250 Movie page.
The second thing we noticed is that seems critics generally seem to despise some of Sandra Bullock’s movies. Movies on RottenTomatoes are considered good movies if they reach 60% approval from critics across the country. Here are some of the astonishingly low scores Sandra Bullock movies have received from critics over the years. Practical Magic 20%, Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous 15%, In Love and War 12%, Two If By Sea 11%, Premonition 8%, All About Steve 6% and Speed 2 Cruise Control 2%. Luckily audiences like Sandra Bullock movies much more than the critics.
Sandra Bullock’s IMDb page shows over 59 acting credits since 1987. In the table below, Ultimate Movie Rankings, ranks her movies in 6 different sortable columns. Television roles, shorts and straight to DVD movies were not included in the rankings.

HI AGAIN STEVE Best POSTERS Bullock video in my opinion-
1/All About Steve 2/ Raunchy one for Miss Congeniality Two 3/two for Premonition 4/Divine Secrets 5/Our Brand is Crisis 6/28 Days 7/In Love and War 8/foreign language one for 2 Weeks’ Notice 9/The Lake House 10/The Proposal 11/2nd one for While You were Sleeping 12/Miss Congeniality [One] 13/Demolition Man 14/The Prince of Manchester 15/The Blind Side 16/Gravity
A surprisingly great glut of fine STILLS in the Bullock video. My own pick-
1/Speed Two 2/Forces of Nature 3/Miss Congeniality Two 4/While You Were Sleeping 5/’cheeky’ bathing beauty Sandra in The Net 6/Practical Magic 7/Murder by Numbers 8/two for Ocean’s Eight 9/Nurse Sandra 10/Sandra with [in real-life] hookers’ best friend Grant -oh those naughty Brits! Do you remember the big row between Hugh and girlfriend Liz Hurley about that scandal? 11/The Heat 12/Speed 13/two for Gravity 14/with Sir Maurice 15/Sexy Sandra in The Proposal 16/Bird Box [straight to video apparently but she had a big hit with Ocean’s 8 around the same time.]
A classy profile of a classy lady, one of your very best and 98.5% rated by me. Indeed three viewings by me so far! You and Our Lord and Master agree on 4 of Sandra’s Top 6 best reviewed movies- Gravity, Speed, Crash and Infamous.
Hi Bob, great posts, thanks for the review, generous rating, info, trivia, stats and comparison, much appreciated. Happy you liked the posters and stills.
I had to include that picture of Sandra showing a bit more ‘cheek’ than usual. 🙂
She admitted to having a crush on Keanu Reeves when filming Speed, and he admitted to fancying her but neither made any moves, regrets of the past. They have remained close friends ever since, making one more film together – The Lake House.
Reports were that Bullock may have ultimately earned close to $70m from starring in the hit movie – Gravity – more than any other actress in film history. Earning her a place in the Guinness Book of Records. $20m up front plus 15% of the gross.
https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/gravity-sandra-bullock-make-70-683561
Two films scored 10 out of 10 from my sources – Gravity and Speed. One more scored 9 out of 10 – Crash. Her biggest hit – Gravity – tops all the charts including Bruce’s critics and UMR charts.
“I remember sitting down in Joel Silver’s office and Joel going, “Do you want to do this film?”. I remember going, “I would like to do it, but I would love to talk about the character”, and it was almost like I had said the biggest joke.”
“I don’t like to talk about personal things. And by keeping it private, you have a better shot at a healthy relationship. I learned at a young age that there are certain things you just don’t talk about.”
HI STEVE
Thanks for the feedback , additional information and quotes.
I didn’t know that stuff about Sandra and the Guinness Book of Records and I like getting statistical information like that, so thanks for sharing it with me and providing me with the link.
I hope you are having a good weekend. Take care.
