X of the Greatest Robin Williams Movies

One of the most brilliant actors for many generations, and one of the most talented comedians died tragically two months ago. That person ( if you look at the title)

is none other than Robin Williams. He brought joy and laughter to many , although his death did not bring anything but sorrow. This affected me greatly , in fact my first review almost did not happen due to his death.

I decided to do my first review despite my sadness. I am not going to give you the nitty gritty details of his death. If you want to know that do a Google search. What I am going to do is give you a quick review of X of his movies. They are not going to be in any particular order and I am not going to rate any of them.

I. Aladdin

This classic animated movie released in 1992 starred Robin Williams as the genie and Gilbert Gottfried as Iago. The animation is superb, the humor is top notch and the voice acting is excellent, but it is Robin's performance that steals the show.

II. Aladdin and the King of Thieves

This animated direct to video movie was released in 1996, and it had the returning voice cast including Robin Williams and Gilbert Gottfried. Now this is technically the third movie released in the Aladdin series, but only the first and the third has Robin Williams as the genie. The animation in this movie is not as good a quality as we saw in the first movie, but it is much better than what was seen in Return of Jafar. The writing was extremely well done, but like in the first movie, Robin's performance once again steals the show.

III. Jumanji

This 1995 live action movie that stars Robin Williams as Alan Parish and Kirsten Dunst as Judy Shepherd has superb writing . The special affects are a bit dated now, but were extremely well done for it's time but it is Robin Williams that is the scene stealer.

IV. Night At The Museum

This 2006 live action movie features Robin Williams as Teddy Roosevelt and Ben Stiller as Larry Daley . Ben Stiller's acting is extremely well done and the writing is well done as well , but it is Robin Williams performance

as Theodore Roosevelt that is the highlight of the movie.

V. Night At The Museum : Battle Of The Smithsonian

This 2009 sequel to the 2006 movie, Night At The Museum, has the returning cast members Ben Stiller and Robin Williams. The movie is not as funny as the first one, but with every bad joke there is a good one coming along , but like with the first movie it is Robin Williams that is the highlight of this movie.

VI. Popeye

This 1980 musical comedy film stars Robin Williams as Popeye and Shelley Duvall as Olive Oyl . The songs are extremely catchy but the movie drags on. It is truly Robin Williams that steals the show.

VII. Flubber

This 1997 movie features Robin Williams as Professor Philip Brainard and Ted Levine as Wesson . The animation on Flubber and Weebo looked extremely real, but the movie really drags on . Despite all this the movie is very funny.

VIII. Bicentennial Man

This 1999 movie stars Robin Williams as Andrew Martin and Oliver Platt as Rupert Burns. The movie sends you on an emotional roller coaster all through its running time, but it is Robin Williams that is easily the best part of the movie.

IX. Mrs. Doubtfire

This 1993 comedy classic stars Robin Williams as Daniel Hillard / Euphegenia Doubtfire and Sally Field as Miranda Hillard. This movie is hilarious right from the opening scene. Sally Field does a wonderful job in her role, but like always Robin Williams steals the show.

X. Dead Poets Society

This 1989 film classic stars Robin Williams as John Keating and Ethan Hawke as Todd Anderson . Unlike most Robin Williams movies its a drama rather than a comedy. It is very emotional and some scenes are very unsettling, for example (spoiler alert!) there is a scene where one of the characters commits suicide but Robin Williams, like many other movies, plays the best part.

In conclusion, Robin Williams – “You are one of the greatest actors that ever came onto this earth and now I cannot imagine Hollywood without you there. Robin I am rating your career as a whole, as the highest honor that I can bestow: Five Gold Stars. You were just plain brilliant. I think I speak for everyone at Mr. Bee's Brilliant Movie Buzz saying you will be missed a lot!''
