One of George Clooney best films is "O Brother Where Art Thou) I love this films because it was my Father's favorited film. You see I just lost my father 11 days ago, the year that this film came out my dad called me and told me that I just had to see a very funny movie, but at the time I was busy and just did not have the time to see it, so my Dad being who he is waited until it came out and rented the movie and when I came to see him and Mom He said I want you to sit down and watch this movie with us, so I did and I laugh so much this is one of my all time favorited not just because of it being so funning but it was something that I shared with my Father. I know that he is in heaven now watching and laughing at this movie so thank you Mr. George Clooney for the wonderful memory with my Dad.
Thank you,
Rebecca Walley

Well, at first I was like totally mad because Peacemaker was second worst and that's not really that bad at all, but then I checked and he really hasn't done anything worse (not counting Killer Tomotoes and Sisters and whatnot). I think the writer was afraid to look snooty and put Clooney's two most successful movies as the bottom 2, which is so modern of snooty people, to hide how snooty they really are. I think Ocean's 13 could have been on the bad list, especially because the only thing helping that movie is Casey Afleck. Clooney tele-acted that one 'cuz he phoned it in.
As far as his best at first I was like what the monkey?! how is Jack Foley not on here?! But then I calmed down and saw that Everett was number 1 which is obvious and Confessions was 2 which is props for directing which is actually fine with me. And really it's a toss up for the bronzey, I suppose Syrianna could be number 3 over Out of Sight but I'm not really that pleased about it. Once again I just think the writer was snooty and going for the serious role where the actor gained weight and won the oscar. Whatever!
Though it was brilliant not to waste a sentence on Three Kings. I'm tired of that one!
Peace out Seacrest!

I thought Batman was bad (horrible directing or something). A Perfect Storm was ok. Can't think of a third worst because even George Clooney's "worst" are better than most people's "best".
Not sure why people pick on the Peacemaker. I thought it was a good yarn and enjoyed watching it. Out Of Sight was terrific. Bought the cd, which I rarely do. Also loved Three Kings. The Oceans films were very entertaining. Really, all his films are very entertaining. Don't think I've seen one that made me go, "uhn... that was a waste of time".
I LOVED Good Night and Good Luck and the Good German.
Bottom Line: Maybe they aren't block busters in the commercial sense, but the guy pretty much makes really, really good films that you remember.

Why do you write with "We" as though you speak for every Starpulse staffer?

Put me in the group that thinks The Peacemaker was a good movie. I really liked it and watch it everytime I see it on cable. Plus Out of Sight and From Dusk to Dawn are 2 of my other favs and I own them on dvd. Loved Michael Clayton, the 1st Oceans and Oh Brother. Never saw Syriana or Good German.

=O WHAT? "Batman and Robin" the worst Clooney movie? Are you MAD!?!?
Well, maybe this is just b/c I'm a huge Clooney fan in general...
But anyway, I love Clooney. I like "O Brother, Where Art Thou" and the Ocean's trilogy best...but then again, I have yet to see "Syriana" or "Michael Clayton," which from what I heard were both fantastic movies.

I agree, Batman and Robin was extremely corny. I liked it when I was little, but now I think it's stupid.

Loved O Brother, hated Syriana, it was boring and I couldn't understand more than half of it because they were speaking in Arabic without subtitles. I wonder whose idea that was.
