Top 10 Best Jodie Foster Movies
Jodie Foster, with her decades-long career, has given us a plethora of characters and performances that have not only thrilled and moved audiences, but also redefined cinema itself. Her phenomenal talent and commitment to the craft has seen her play a wide range of roles, each unique and memorable in their own way.Do you lean towards the suspenseful drama of "The Silence of the Lambs", where her performance as Clarice Starling won her an Academy Award? Or perhaps you're a fan of her work in "The Accused", another Oscar-winning role, where she portrayed a resilient survivor fighting for justice. Maybe it's her gripping performance in "Panic Room" that stands out, or her exploration of outer space in "Contact". And let's not forget her directorial ventures, which add another dimension to her illustrious career.
As you prepare to vote, think about the roles that have stayed with you long after the credits rolled. Consider the depth of her characters, the nuances of her performances, and the way she brought these stories to life on screen. This isn't just about box office hits or award-winning roles; it's also about those underrated gems that showcased her extraordinary range.
I love the premise behind the story. Jodie's acting is as spot-on as usual, which I mean as a compliment.
So many alien movies have us in fear, but in this story, our alien cousins are assisting us humans to visit them. However, we have to build the ship, showing a degree of intelligence. They, I presume, are keen to keep their distance in case we are hostile. It could be the first of many encounters, but we have to be worthy.
Her sincerity in needing scientific proof for a belief in something she cannot quantify is tangible. Such an amazing performance.
This should be number two, and as an overall movie, it is better than Silence of the Lambs. Her role is pivotal in how a young runaway is depicted and how hard they have to survive.
This intense thriller really shows off Jodie's incredible acting skills.
One of my all-time favorite movies.
This was a simply great film. It was very moving when her hard shell cracked towards the end, and she became a much nicer character. Although I personally loved her character from the beginning, she had a bit of ice water in her veins!
Rynn Jacobs is, in my opinion, the most complex character Jodie ever played. She is a dark soul, mature beyond her years, brilliant, fiercely individualistic, mysterious, tragic, both haunted and haunting, and sexy in a very disturbing way.
As a whole, this film is profoundly disturbing on so many levels.
Great movie! Really touching and inspiring acting from Jodie Foster!
I just finished writing a novel inspired a lot by Jodie Foster in this movie, but I'm writing a different story, of course.
I love you, Erica Bain (Jodie Foster)!
Very good thriller. Inventive, see-saw battle between good and evil right until the end. Bravo.
Intense the whole way through. Great thriller. Can't look away.
Thrilling, fun, and well-acted all around!
Just watched this again, remembering how it affected me the first time. A wonderful movie and so well acted by all involved. Jodie Foster has done some very superb work over the years. Looking forward to more from her!
One of the finest movies I've ever seen. It lingered in my thoughts for days. The acting and storyline were amazing. Wow to movies like this that don't have a scrap of CGI, just solid real talent!
My mother and I were both devoted Jodie Foster fans. Worried that she was slipping down a dangerous path in her career with a movie titled Foxes, we decided to watch it anyway. Man, were we in shock. Poignant, revealing, and emotional, we both agreed this would go down as one of our favorite Jodie classics.
Thank you.

I like seeing movies where Jodie comes in! I like every movie with her!
I love this movie. Never hesitate to watch it again and again. I admire movies that offer me a special time.
Very classy, rich, well-performed movie. The scenery is amazing. Jodie is top-notch here too!
I enjoyed watching Anna and the King.
My kids request it for family movie night on a regular basis. Somehow, I find myself watching it too.
Besides showing actions and consequences of war that mainstream media and history books never show, it was a great romantic story, and the chemistry was perfect.
