Top 10 Rated Amber Heard Movies
1. Zack Snyder’s Justice League (2021)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vM-Bja2Gy04
“Zack Snyder’s Justice League,” also known colloquially as the “Snyder Cut,” is a director cut of sorts for the 2017 American superhero film “Justice League.” As Zack Snyder was pulled from the project before its completion, this act serves as a course correction. The 2021 release is intended to be more faithful to his vision. Additionally, it is a sequel to 2016’s “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice”–another entry in the DC Extended Universe (DCEU).
The film’s cast includes Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Gal Gadot, and Amber Heard. The film was very well-received by fans and critics alike, with many praising its more faithful adaptation of the source material.
IMDb – 8.0 / Rotten Tomatoes Audience Score – 94%
Critics Consensus: “An improvement over its predecessor, Zack Snyder’s Justice League is a more faithful adaptation of the comics–and will likely satisfy DC fans looking for a cinematic counterpart to their beloved graphic novels.”
2. Zombieland (2009)
Ruben Fleischer’s 2009 directorial debut, Zombieland, is a zombie comedy film following Jesse Eisenberg, a college student trying to survive in a post-apocalyptic world.

Zombieland was released in the United States on October 2, 2009, by Columbia Pictures. Zombieland became a box office and critical success, earning more than $60 million in 17 days.
IMDb – 7.6 / Rotten Tomatoes Audience Score – 86%

3. North Country (2005)
Charlize Theron, Frances McDormand, Sean Bean, Richard Jenkins, Michelle Monaghan, Jeremy Renner, Woody Harrelson, and Sissy Spacek star in North Country, a 2005 drama film directed by Niki Caro. The plot was inspired by Clara Bingham and Laura Leedy Gansler’s 2002 book Class Action: The Story of Lois Jenson and the Landmark Case That Changed Sexual Harassment Law.
Critics praised the film, but it did not do well at the box office, earning only $25 million against its budget of $35 million.

IMDb – 7.1 / Rotten Tomatoes Audience Score – 72%

It was written by David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick and Colin Trevorrow, directed by James Wan, and includes Amber Heard, Willem Dafoe, Patrick Wilson, Dolph Lundgren, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Nicole Kidman, and Ludi Lin in its cast.

IMDb – 6.5 / Rotten Tomatoes Audience Score – 34%

The film was unsuccessful at the box office, earning only $7 million against its budget of $10 million.
