X: Paparazzi (he's in it for maybe five seconds but he produced and financed it so it should count)

Didn't include The Passion Of The Christ as he didn't act in it.
Everything on this post is strictly the opinion and only the opinion of Buscemi.

Im gonna do this voting in a statistical way, 1st best movie gets 5 votes, 2nd get 4 votes, 5th - 1 vote. Worst movie is just the one that comes up the most. If you didn't number your top 5, im just gonna guess that you put the first one as number 1.

Heres the stats for best 6 (unless tied) movies from Mel Gibson

1. Lethal Weapon (25)
2. Braveheart (19)
3. Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior (13)
4. Chicken Run (10)
=5. Mad Max (7)
=5. Maverick (7)
=6. We Were Soldiers (5)
=6. Edge of Darkness (5)
=6. Signs (5)

Worst film was:

What Women Want (2)


Well, that went well. Ill post a director next.
