Weekly Poll Results: Best Mark Wahlberg Movie

boogienights

No big surprise here, but according to Film Junk readers, Mark Wahlberg’s best movie is still the one that gave him his breakout role: P.T. Anderson’s Boogie Nights. The movie topped last week’s poll with a whopping 42% of the votes, followed by the two movies for which he received Oscar nominations: The Departed and The Fighter. Three Kings and The Other Guys rounded out the top 5. (I Heart Huckabees just narrowly missed out on cracking the top 5.) I was a bit surprised to see The Other Guys rank so much higher than Ted, especially considering the insane success of the latter. Way down at the bottom of the list, the football drama Invincible pulled up the rear. Do you agree with these results?

1. Boogie Nights — 42%
2. The Departed — 22%
3. The Fighter — 12%
4. Three Kings — 8%
5. The Other Guys — 4%
6. I Heart Huckabees — 3%
7. The Italian Job — 3%
8. Shooter — 2%
9. Ted — 2%
10. Four Brothers — 2%
11. The Basketball Diaries — 1%
12. Pain & Gain — 1%
13. Invincible — 0%
