Bogart films best to worst

10/10. One of my favourite movies ever and featuring what is possibly Bogey's best performance. Still relevant today and seems nearly timeless.

9/10. Classic. Iconic. Masterpiece.

8.5/10. Extremely convoluted movie but sizzling with chemistry and has a great script and impeccable performances and direction. One of the quintessential film noirs. Above all, endlessly entertaining.

8.5. Another high adventure yarn from director John Huston, The African Queen is immensely entertaining and the chemistry between Hepburn and Bogart is almost unbeatable. Beautiful colour photography from the on location shooting in Africa.

8/10. Great direction and another great dark Bogart performance.

8/10. Bogey's breakthrough role. Good direction and fast paced plot.

8/10. Bogart in a full sneering, unsympathetic villain role. Cagney and Bogart are electric together.

8/10. Bogart is absolute dynamite in his last film and dominates the screen effortlessly. The direction and editing is tight and the social commentary on the ethics of boxing is well done. The film noir aspects gel very well with the dark, seedy, and corrupt nature of the plot and characters.

8/10. Iconic film noir. Not as good as The Big Sleep but highly entertaining nonetheless.

8/10. A crackling, tightly paced cops and robbers yarn featuring Edward G. Robinson as a undercover cop and Bogart as a typically nasty, trigger happy thug.

7.5/10. Bogart and Bacall are again a great pair and this movie is just a lot of fun.

7.5/10. Although hampered by a pointless romantic subplot between the protagonist and a random dame, The Caine Mutiny is still an entertaining and well done exploration of breakdown of authority and bureaucratic complacency. Van Johnson, Fred Macmurray, and Jose Ferrer all give incredible supporting performances but it's Bogart's paranoid Captain Queeg who really captivates. One of Bogart's most subtle and multifaceted performances.

7/10. The first 30 minutes are great and the movie is another fun Bogart-Bacall pairing. The climax is pretty lame but is more than made up for in the ambiguous final scene.

7/10. Taut and suspenseful home invasion movie. It's a bit dated but Bogart gets to play an out and out bad guy after years of heroes and he makes you believe all over again that these are the only kind of roles that he was ever going to play. That's not the case of course but that's how convincing he is in this movie.

7/10. Probably the most legitimately funny Bogart film. The supporting cast is great, Jennifer Jones is hot, and the laid back direction contributes to a light, breezy pace.

7/10. Great tragic character study with Bogart taking somewhat of a backseat to the drama of a poor kid who's had a rough time of life. I love courtroom movies and this one was another good addition to that genre.

7/10. Bette Davis, Edward G. Robinson, and Bogart all elevate what could have been a by the numbers boxing movie into...a really enjoyable boxing movie. Not amazing but still pretty fun.

7/10. Bogart is a slimy lawyer to Cagney's charming hoodlum. The film is pretty heavy handed but also a classic gangster picture. Bogart is great as always, even though his role is small.

7/10. Despite a rather obvious ending, Conflict is a competently made and directed film noir. Good performance from Bogart and the plot is slightly similar to Clouzot's Les Diaboliques.

7/10. Short, to the point, and kind of undeveloped, I still really liked the cast and had fun with this classic Warner's B-movie. Bogart great as usual and he does what he can with extremely light material.

6.5/10. I liked the espionage aspects that made the film seem like a '40's era Bond film, but Across the Pacific takes a while to get going. The romance is rushed and there are some really demeaning racial stereotypes. About on par with Passage to Marseille.

6.5/10. Passage to Marseille is neither good or bad, just decidedly average. The needlessly complicated flashback structure hampers the film for the first two acts but the action scenes at the end are pretty good, even though the closing scene is just ridiculous propaganda. Bogart is actually miscast as our intrepid French hero. The riffs on Casablanca are annoying.

6/10. Great dialogue and direction but Bogart is out of place and the story and characters were kind of superficial. I prefer dark Billy Wilder to comedic Billy Wilder.

6/10. Hugely underwhelming despite the presence of its two stars. Even Bogart needed to take paycheck roles, I guess. The story is contrived and characterizations/motivations weak despite trying to explain everything away at the end.

6/10. Bogart is great as always but the movie is kind of slow. Decent photography and dialogue.

6/10. Bogart is good but Bacall is oddly sidelined in favour of Edward G. Robinson's one-dimensional and over the top gangster. The plot is dumb and the racist undertones are extremely distracting.

6/10. Despite featuring George Raft and Ida Lupino, this one is more of a miss. The plot gets incredibly stupid and rips off the prior Warner Bros. film Bordertown with Paul Muni. Also Bogart is oddly sidelined after he loses an arm and the movie then focuses on Ida Lupino's grating character.
