Want to know the best Keira Knightley movies? How about the worst Keira Knightley movies? Curious about Keira Knightley box office grosses or which Keira Knightley movie picked up the most Oscar® nominations? Need to know which Keira Knightley movie got the best reviews from critics and audiences? Well, you have come to the right place….because we have all of that information.
Keira Knightley (1985-) is an English two-time Oscar® nominated actress. Knightley appeared in a supporting role in 1999’s Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace. She gained widespread recognition in 2002 after co-starring in the film Bend It Like Beckham and achieved international fame in 2003 after appearing as Elizabeth Swann in the Pirates of the Caribbean film series. Her IMDb page shows over 55 acting credits since 1993. This page will rank Keira Knightley movies from Best to Worst in six different sortable columns of information. Television shows and movies that were not released in North American theaters were not included in the rankings. To do well in our overall rankings a movie has to do well at the box office, get good reviews by critics, be liked by audiences, and get some award recognition.
Drivel part of the page: So how did we end up writing a page on Keira Knightley? Two main reasons. One of my kids told me that almost all of my most recent pages fell in the classic movie category. They also said that it was time to do a modern-day star-like Keira Knightley. Secondly, Steve Lensman was telling me that his Keira Knightey You Tube Video was one of his most popular videos. So we figured we would try and get on the popular Keira Knightley bandwagon and give her a UMR Movie Page.
