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.

Steve’s Sandra Bullock You Tube Video
For comments….all you need is a name and a comment….please ignore the rest.
I became a renewed Sandra Bullock fan after seing “The Proposal” and the “Blind Side” on Cable Station FX and I think for a 71 yr. old Great-Grandma I am about her biggest Fan. I have purchased almost all of her movies ; mostly Used and from Amazon and especially Love , “The Blind Side and “{The Proposal”)! I like almost all of her movies! She is 4 yrs. older than my oldest child(My Daughter) and is kind of like watching a successful daughter on screen. I have seen “The heat” recently and it is great; except a little too many “F” words for me! Oh this is the first time I have written anything like this and UI enjoyed you comments! I am from Michigan and am planning to see “Gravity” when it come out! I do better when I can watch them on DVD because I am hard of hearing and “Closed Captioning” helps me alot! I was born te same year as Sandras mother! I am new on the computor and don’t know these terms like HTML and URLs! What do they mean!
Hey Grandma Lois Miller….thanks for your awesome comment….I am glad Sandra Bullock has given you so much joy.
Sandy’s the best! I wanna see the Heat as well. I love Melissa McCarthy’s comedy even since she was Sookie back on Gilmore Girls. Great job Cogerson!
Thanks Alecia….you will be happy to know Bullock and McCarthy are making The Heat 2
I thought she was great in 28 Days.
Hey Porshadous…..28 Days is one of the few Bullock movies that I have not seen…but based on your review..I will check it out
I love most movies that Sandra Bullock is in. I think she is a fine and talented actress. I don’t pay attention to the critics – what do they know? I have always enjoyed her and kudos to her for going on with her life after the disaster, Jesse James.
Thanks suzettenaples…..she really rebounded well from the James issues…and seems pretty happy
Coge….Another one of your older pages that hit THE BLIND SIDE of my vision. I came across it WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING.
I guess I need a TWO WEEK NOTICE or maybe even 28 DAYS. Maybe I should have a PREMONITION or use a little PRACTICAL MAGIC. If that doesn’t work, the only thing left to do is drink some LOVE POTION NO.9.
Have to leave THE LAKE HOUSE now to see the DEMOLITION MAN. Yes, I was involved in a CRASH due to SPEED. It was EXTREMELY LOUD AND INCREDIBLY CLOSE. It left me a little GUN SHY.
Better close now before I give away DIVINE SECRETS OF THE YA-YA SISTERHOOD. All I can tell you is that they’re about the FORCES OF NATURE and how HOPE FLOATS in a storm.
Your movie pages are absolutely INFAMOUS. I’m glad I can read them on THE NET.
Take care, Coge. Sincerely, MISS CONGENIALIT
Hey fpherj48….as always thanks for your very nice comment.
