Walken's best-reviewed flicks

San Francisco Chronicle has a neat article they did in collaboration with Rotten Tomatoes. "Christopher Walken's best-reviewed movies" ranks Walken's movies by their critical response.

Walkin was awesome in the Dead Zone! In fact, I'm surprised Dead Zone didn't come in higher on the list. Ranking at 89%, the Chronicle The Dead Zone calls the 1983 movie "arguably the best Stephen King adaptation."

  1. It's kind of a cheat, that list, because the ranking is *not* based on Walken's performance in said film, but on that film's overall critical reception. DEAD ZONE however certainly gets the highest rating of films in which he is actually the *lead actor*, an important distinction. He's in ANNIE HALL and PULP FICTION for barely 10 minutes each.

  2. Hummm, I hadn't thought of that! You're absolutely right. But he really carries Dead Zone.
