All Viggo Mortensen Movies Ranked
Viggo: Renaissance man. He’s a poet. He’s a photographer. He’s a horse whisperer. He’s a book publisher. He’s an ethnographer. And did you know he’s also a movie star? Let’s hope so because we’re about to rank all his films by Tomatometer!
Mortensen will forever be associated with his role in the Lord of the Rings trilogy. As Aragorn, the man who would be king, he brought steely empathy as a noble human among orcs, elves, talking trees and a variety of creatures in the biggest movie fantasy epic ever. Before Rings, his chiseled good looks made him notable in roles that were anything but: Building a house in Witness, getting crushed by debris in Daylight, or playing a reincarnated inmate in Prison. And after Rings, Mortensen has challenged himself with deep, dynamic roles – since all his other hobbies keep him plenty busy. Check him out as literally The Man in The Road, nude brawler in Eastern Promises, or a survivalist dad in Captain Fantastic. And now with all his movies with a Tomatometer in one place, it’s easier than ever to Viggo the distance. —Alex Vo
