Brad Pitt's Best Performances In Years Past

By Steven Johnson


One of the most iconic and likable actors in Hollywood today is Brad Pitt. It is not all too often that you meet someone who doesn't like Brad Pitt. I mean, aside from the whole Jennifer Aniston fiasco, he seems like a really good guy. It also doesn't hurt that most of his movies are well selected.

There is no doubt that Brad Pitt has starred in more than five incredible movies, but this article will list my five favorites.

One movie that I certainly need to mention is Seven. This movie is as good as detective thrillers get. Pitt stars as a young detective working alongside an experienced veteran (played by Morgan Freeman), chasing after a mastermind serial killer. Not a film for the faint of heart.

Another great film that stars Brad Pitt is the Assassination of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford. Pitt plays the part of Jesse James, while Casey Affleck does an incredible job as the coward Robert Ford.

Fight Club is probably one of my top 15 favorite movies of all time. Edward Norton and Brad Pitt star in this awesome movie, which also happened to be directed by David Fincher. If you have never seen Fight Club, move it to the top of your list.

One film that featured Brad Pitt that I thoroughly enjoyed was Snatch. It is truly amazing how crazy Pitt's accent is in this film; you cannot make out anything he is saying. I think its supposed to be Irish.

In the scope of the romantic genre, one great movie starring Brad Pitt was Meet Joe Black. Pitt plays Death in this film and falls in love with the daughter of the man who is supposed to kill. Pretty interesting stuff.

As it stands, this is my Brad Pitt film list, but I have no doubts that there will be others to consider in the next few years. The man only chooses the best of roles.
