35: The Departed


Actually one of Mark's best work (he was nominated for best supporting actor). It's a good movie but the last hour is by far better than the beginning and the last scene is RIDICULOUS!

8/10

33: Shooter


Still a great movie even though I've already seen it. Nothing too special just an intersting story, kick ass action, and Mark Wahlberg. See it... now!
9/10

17: Traveller



Surprisingly not as bad as I thought it would be. I don't really remember the plot, so it wasn't that great. It was enjoyable enough and Mark Wahlberg was in it so I'm a happy camper.

6/10

16: I Heart Huckabees


This was a movie I really enjoyed. It was cute, enlightening, and a whole bunch of things in between. I'm serious when I say it was one of Mark Wahlberg's best performances. All the characters were so crazy and yet the seemed oddly realistic and extremely likeable.

15: The Big Hit


I said I would see every Mark Wahlberg movie and... I did... and... this one really, really sucked. I don't even remember the plot and it was just not funny. At all. The only redeeming quality is that Mark was really hot in this movie (even though he appeared to be channelling Seth Green).
2/10

10: Renaissance Man


Yes, that's Mark Wahlberg taking a shower. If this scene isn't enough to make you want to see this movie then I honestly don't know what else I can say. Just kidding, but really I enjoyed this movie very much (and not just because Marky Mark is singing Achey Breaky Heart in the shower). Indeed, it was kind of cheesy but it was definitely a feel-good movie. All the characters were really likeable and Hamlet is the best Shakespeare play ever.
9/10

9: Basketball Diaries



This was a really good movie (even though I got it for Mark Wahlberg and Leo DiCaprio was the main character). Again, it's a sad story with a happy ending. Leo played the character extremely well and made it so real. It's sad to see such a talented kid throw away so much because of an addiction (or many addictions) but the end has some redeeming qualities.

8/10

8: Fear


It honestly wasn't that bad, I was just unnerved about how creepy Mark Wahlberg was. MY BOY, Mark Wahlberg being some crazy psychotic boyfriend equals DO NOT WANT! It was also kinda slow until the end when he's like stalking them at their house with his buddies. BTW, Mark Wahlberg srsly needs to work on kissing better because he literally eats the girls face in every movie where he's had a love interest. Ew...
