All 5 Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson Movies, Ranked
An entertainment publication has ranked the five films featuring both Bruce Willis and Samuel L. Jackson, cataloguing their complete filmography together before the actor's 2022 retirement from acting. The films feature varying degrees of screen time collaboration, with Willis holding a cameo in at least one entry and occupying larger roles in the others, and the collection spans multiple genres representing a range of critical reception and quality.
The bottom-ranked entry is 1993's 'Loaded Weapon 1,' a parody of the Lethal Weapon franchise that pairs Jackson with Emilio Estevez as buddy cops whilst Willis briefly appears as his Die Hard character. The reviewer criticises the film for failing to generate sufficient humour to justify its parody premise, noting it underperforms compared to other Willis-Jackson collaborations and suggesting The Naked Gun films offer superior parody entertainment.
