**Rotten Tomatoes Ranks Tom Hanks’ Films: ‘Bonfire of the Vanities’ Burns Out, ‘Toy Story 2’ Shines**
**HOLLYWOOD, CA** – Tom Hanks, one of Hollywood’s most beloved and versatile actors, has a filmography spanning decades and genres. But according to fan reviews aggregated on Rotten Tomatoes, not all his films are created equal.
The film ranked lowest is the 1990 comedy “The Bonfire of the Vanities,” co-starring Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, Kirsten Dunst, and Melanie Griffith, the film garnered a dismal 15% approval rating. Fans criticized the film as a “lifeless satire” and a “bloated” mess, with some claiming the all-star cast couldn’t save it from “sinking.” Despite a $47 million budget, the film grossed just $15.6 million, making it a box office bomb.
On the opposite end of the spectrum, “Toy Story 2” leads the pack with a perfect 100% score. Hanks’s voice work as Woody the Cowboy, in this popular and culturally significant animated film, cemented his legacy, and all four “Toy Story” movies rank among his highest-rated films.
Other fan favorites include:
* **Big (1988):** Ranked number five, this comedy about a teenager who magically becomes an adult received acclaim for Hanks’s performance.
* **Catch Me If You Can (2002):** A crime drama based on a true story, receiving good reviews.
* **Apollo 13:** A space-mission movie set in 1970.
* **A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood:** The biographical drama made number eight on the list.
* **Captain Phillips:** The action thriller also ranked among the fan favourites.
* **Saving Private Ryan (1998):** Steven Spielberg’s war epic rounds out the top ten with a 94% rating.
This ranking offers a fascinating look at the actor’s career, highlighting his range and the enduring appeal of certain roles.
