  2. 2Mission: Impossible III (2006)Mission: Impossible III (2006) 6.9/10 on IMDbReleased 25 Apr 2006Philip Seymour Hoffman's arms broker Owen Davian barely seems interested in Ethan Hunt as a person.

  5. 5Paddington 2 (2017)Paddington 2 (2017) 7.8/10 on IMDbReleased 5 Nov 2017Hugh Grant's Phoenix Buchanan keeps treating real people as a disappointing supporting cast.

  6. 6Spider-Man (2002)Spider-Man (2002) 7.4/10 on IMDbReleased 1 May 2002Willem Dafoe makes Norman Osborn's conversations with himself an unstable contest for control.

  7. 7Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017)Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017) 7.4/10 on IMDbReleased 5 Jul 2017The car conversation is the deciding scene for Michael Keaton's Vulture.

Depp is the comic motor, but Jones…0
  10. 10Dune: Part Two (2024)Dune: Part Two (2024) 8.4/10 on IMDbReleased 27 Feb 2024Austin Butler's Feyd-Rautha brings a frightening appetite for an audience to Dune: Part Two.
