I searched the Internet for lists of the best Charlize Theron movies of all time. Criteria included the movies being ranked, not just listed in general or by date, and generally created by groups, whether teams or committees or based on general public voting (like Ranker.com).
I was able to find 29 lists. I took the 29 lists and added all their content into a spreadsheet, noting the rank of every film. I ended up averaging the rankings each movie got and dividing that average by a factor of the number of lists that movie was on. The lowest score meant a high ranking average on many lists. The complete spreadsheet is attached at the bottom.
The movies that were on the most lists (out of 29) were:
- Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) – 28 lists
- Monster (2003) – 28 lists
- Young Adult (2011) – 26 lists
- Atomic Blonde (2017) – 24 lists
- Tully (2018) – 24 lists
- The Devil’s Advocate (1997) – 23 lists
- North Country (2005) – 23 lists
