I’ve been in a Robert Pattinson phase recently (along with a good portion of the Internet). I can’t explain why (okay maybe it's the release of Midnight Sun, the fifth book in the Twilight series, and my Twilight marathons...) Letterboxd now tells me that I have seen 42% percent of all of his movies (that does include movies that haven't come out yet so that number would be higher if we’re only counting movies that have been released.) Because of my sudden spike in Robert Pattinson movie viewings, there was only one thing for me to do for this issue: rank my top ten Rob movies! Enjoy!!


1. Remember Me (2010)

  • Sorry film bros! This movie has always been a fav of mine. I simply can’t help it. It's the NYU student, Strand bookstore employee, big brother Rob for me! Such a classic 2015 movie with a twist ending!

2. Twilight: Eclipse (2010)

  • Okay, we already knew that I would have so many Twilights on this list. Eclipse is easily my favorite of the Twilights earning it the #2 spot on the list!

3. The Lighthouse (2019)

  • I love Robert Eggers so much! I loved The Witch and The Lighthouse did not disappoint. Just Robert Pattinson and Willem Dafoe being insane for two hours.

4. Twilight: Breaking Dawn Pt. 2 (2012)

  • Another Twilight, SHOCKER! There is not much to say here other than I love this movie and the CGI’d baby makes me laugh every time.

5. Good Time (2017)

  • Okay, I really liked this movie. Although Rob is literally playing a psychopath and it's just two straight hours of anxiety. An important note is that Benny Safdie was actually so incredible as Nick. I will never understand how people are so talented that they can act in, write, and direct a whole movie!

6. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005)

  • Classic. Had to throw this one in here. Baby Rob just hits different, I don't know.Take my body back, take my body back to my fawtha.

7. Water for Elephants (2011)

  • I love a good historical fiction. This was also peak R Patz and I really liked it, okay! Sorry. Also, such a happy ending which made my sad little heart soar. Technically not the best movie in the world but it's a nice feel-good with a solid story.

8. Twilight: New Moon (2009)

  • I know I know, this is socially accepted as the worst Twilight BUT for some reason, I love it so much. Everyone always says it’s so boring but the scene where Bella goes to save Edward in Italy *chefs kiss*

9. Tenet (2020)

  • Not me being confused 96% of the movie. Wrong bitch. But okay, once I figured out what was going on, I really enjoyed it and would like to see it again to catch all the things I was too confused about the first time! Also, thanks to whatever costume designer decided to put Rob in that little purple scarf. Woof.

10. The Devil All The Time (2020)

The thing is, aside from Robert Pattinson's ridiculous accent, I really did not like this movie that much and once I watch Damsel this might just be booted from the list. Who knows? Damsel does feature Rob singing and that may be better than ‘deluuuuuuuusions’
