Presenting The Best Of : Sandra Bullock

Sandra Bullock is one of the most versatile actress, but sometimes she get stuck with the same romantic flick and some uninspired box office blah. She rises back into prominance with last year The Proposal and The Blind Side which make her the first woman, to have her movie cross the 200 million mark, while being single billed. (The Blind Side poster only has Sandra Bullock name billed). Now it’s time to glance at the best of Sandra Bullock. Let’s start the countdown!

10. The Lake House

It's a delicate, hyper-romantic atmosphere, pensive and steeped in longing, that covers over the story's inconsistencies -- or at least offers enough distraction to make us not care.

9. Two Weeks Notice

Much of the reason for the film’s success is down to the pairing of Grant and Bullock, and it’s easy to see how the film could have been a leaden disaster in the hands of blander actors.

8. The Proposal

The Proposal doesn't blaze any new ground, but it doesn't raze any old ground either. It's a solid, old-fashioned romantic comedy that's more interested in the romance than in being silly or raunchy. These days, that's refreshing enough.

7. Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood

Sandra Bullock is great as Siddalee Walker, the angry and disgruntled woman who has a cross to bear with her mother and often exhibits the corky odd traits her mother does.

6. A Time To Kill

With Joel Schumacher's tasteful but second-rate-Sidney-Lumet direction and Akiva Goldsman's nuts-and-bolts script, these boys have created a surprisingly stirring indictment of racism.

5. Miss Congeniality

Sandra Bullock is in a class of her own and it's only partly a matter of beauty. Perhaps the larger part is that shining, irresistible personality that lights a room, a runway, a silver screen. She can get you interested in the phone directory.

4. The Blind Side

It might strike some viewers as a little too pat, but The Blind Side has the benefit of strong source material and a strong performance from Sandra Bullock.

3. Crash

A raw and unsettling morality piece on modern angst and urban disconnect, Crash examines the dangers of bigotry and xenophobia in the lives of interconnected Angelenos.

2. Speed

Speed lives up to its title, delivering carefully crafted action/adventure thrills without ever breaking out of the genre rut

1. While You Were Sleeping

While You Were Sleeping is built wholly from familiar ingredients, but assembled with such skill -- and with such a charming performance from Sandra Bullock -- that it gives formula a good name.
