Want to know the best Anthony Hopkins movies? How about the worst Anthony Hopkins movies? Curious about Anthony Hopkins box office grosses or which Anthony Hopkins movie picked up the most Oscar® nominations? Need to know which Anthony Hopkins movie got the best reviews from critics and audiences and which ones got the worst? Well you have come to the right place….because we have all of that information.
I have received not one, not two but three requests to do a movie page on Sir Philip Anthony Hopkins (1937-), best known as Anthony Hopkins. The first time I noticed Anthony Hopkins was in his role in A Bridge Too Far in 1977. In a movie loaded with stars, I thought his role as Colonel Frost was one of the best parts in the movie. His most famous role is playing Hannibal Lecter in the Silence of the Lambs trilogy. He has appeared in over 60 movies since 1968. He has received three Oscar® nominations for Best Actor (Silence of the Lambs, Remains of the Day, Nixon) and one Oscar® nomination for Best Supporting Actor (Amistad). He won the Oscar® for Best Actor in Silence of the Lambs.
His IMDb page shows over 135 acting credits since 1965. This page will rank 69 Anthony Hopkins movies from Best to Worst in six different sortable columns of information. Television shows, shorts, cameos and movies that were not released in theaters were not included in the rankings.

I’ve always thought of Anthony Hopkins as one of the most intense and even fierce actors out there. Awesome article. Voted up.
I agree Meisjunk Hopkins is a very intense actor
Another useful and well written movie page!
Thanks for the compliments Will…it is greatly appreciated
Excellent actor! “The Lion in Winter” is one of the greatest movies ever. “Silence of the Lambs” was great too, but the sequel “Hannibal” was just awful! I really enjoyed his interpretation of Captain Bligh in “the Bounty” (he brought more substance and depth to the character than Charles Laughton’s more evil version). His wacky version of Van Helsing in “Dracula” was a hoot!
I think “A Bridge Too far” was the first thing I saw him in, too. Of the Hopkins movies I’ve seen, I’d say “Freejack” was the worst, although “Hannibal” is pretty close to the bottom, too.
Peace,
Rob.
Hey Rob….I thought he was awesome in A Bridge Too Far…I just rewatched Lion in Winter…it was great seeing O’Toole, Hopkins and Dalton when they were so young…talk about a weird family Hepburn the mother was 61 when she made the movie….O’Toole the father was 36….Hopkins the son was 31 …but they made it work…..I still think the best Hannibal movie is Manhunter which does not star Hopkins….I know I am pretty much alone thinking that…..I think his strangest part was The Road to Wellville…thanks for reading
Yes me too! Personally one of my favourite Anthony Hopkins Movies is ‘The Edge’. There is a great review of this at http://www.anthonyhopkinsmovies.com with all the pics and info about the making of the movie. Nice page, and thanks for visiting mine.
Hey Juliette ….wow talk about the theory of repetition….my mom just sent me an email about the movie The Edge….thanks for posting the link…I will check it out….thanks for commenting
Now this is the way to start my morning. I LOVE Anthony Hopkins! I think he’s one of those fantastic actors who has never received adequate praise for his talent.
I should tell you…I have movie night at my house once a month. I’ve started a movie guide with your fantastic page. Thanks.
