31. LONDON (2006) – 14%
Critics Consensus: Hampered by pretension and undermined by unlikable characters, London proves that the novelty of seeing actors play against type isn’t enough to rescue a deeply flawed film.
Starring: Jessica Biel, Chris Evans, Jason Statham, Joy BryantDirected By: Hunter Richards
30. PLAYING IT COOL (2015) – 14%
Critics Consensus: Playing It Cool pits Evans’ and Monaghan’s easy chemistry against a screenplay that tries too hard to be quirky and clever – and the results were disappointingly lukewarm.
Starring: Chris Evans, Michelle Monaghan, Topher Grace, Aubrey PlazaDirected By: Justin Reardon
29. THE PERFECT SCORE (2004) – 16%
Critics Consensus: Neither funny nor suspenseful, this heist/teen flick also fails to explore its potentially socially relevant premise.
Starring: Erika Christensen, Scarlett Johansson, Chris Evans, Bryan GreenbergDirected By: Brian Robbins
28. PUSH (2009) – 23%
Critics Consensus: The sci-fi thriller Push is visually flashy but hyperkinetic and convoluted.
Starring: Chris Evans, Dakota Fanning, Camilla Belle, Djimon HounsouDirected By: Paul McGuigan
27. FIERCE PEOPLE (2005) – 24%
Critics Consensus: Fierce People’s premise of a teenager studying rich people like animals is grating and self-satisfied, and Anton Yelchin’s smug performance makes the film even harder to agree with.
Starring: Diane Lane, Anton Yelchin, Donald Sutherland, Chris EvansDirected By: Griffin Dunne

26. WHAT’S YOUR NUMBER? (2011) – 24%
Critics Consensus: The comic timing of Anna Faris is sharp as always, but it’s wasted away in this predictable, boilerplate comedy.
Starring: Anna Faris, Chris Evans, Ari Graynor, Blythe DannerDirected By: Mark Mylod
25. BEFORE WE GO (2015) – 27%
Critics Consensus: Evans’ directorial debut is modest to the least, with a threadbare story and minimal style leaving his and Alice Eve’s likable performances adrift in New York City with nowhere to go.
Starring: Alice Eve, Chris Evans, Daniel Spink, Emma FitzpatrickDirected By: Chris Evans
24. THE LOSS OF A TEARDROP DIAMOND (2009) – 27%

23. FANTASTIC FOUR (2005) – 27%
Critics Consensus: Marred by goofy attempts at wit, subpar acting, and bland storytelling, Fantastic Four is a mediocre attempt to bring Marvel’s oldest hero team to the big screen.Starring: Jessica Alba, Chris Evans, Michael Chiklis, Ioan GruffuddDirected By: Tim Story
22. NOT ANOTHER TEEN MOVIE (2001) – 29%
Critics Consensus: NATM has some funny moments, but the movie requires the audience to have familiarity with the movies being spoofed and tolerance for toilet and sexual humor to be truly effective.Starring: Chris Evans, Chyler Leigh, Jaime Pressly, Mia KirshnerDirected By: Joel Gallen
21. THE NANNY DIARIES (2007) – 34%
Critics Consensus: The Nanny Diaries’ miscast lead and unrealistic, one-dimensional characters make this class satire far less effective than it should’ve been.Starring: Scarlett Johansson, Laura Linney, Alicia Keys, Chris EvansDirected By: Robert Pulcini, Shari Springer Berman
20. TMNT (2007) – 35%
Critics Consensus: TMNT’s art direction is splendid, but the plot is non-existent and the dialogue lacks the irony and goofy wit of the earlier Ninja Turtles movies.Starring: Chris Evans, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Mako, Patrick StewartDirected By: Kevin Munroe

18. FANTASTIC FOUR: RISE OF THE SILVER SURFER (2007) – 37%

17. THE LOSERS (2010) – 48%

16. BATTLE FOR TERRA (2009) – 49%
Critics Consensus: Despite its earnest aspirations to be a thought-provoking sci-fi alternative, Battle for Terra lacks both a cohesive story and polished visuals, and fails to resonate.Starring: Evan Rachel Wood, Justin Long, Luke Wilson, Brian CoxDirected By: Aristomenis Tsirbas

14. CELLULAR (2004) – 55%

Starring: Kim Basinger, Jason Statham, Chris Evans, William H. MacyDirected By: David R. Ellis
13. THE ICEMAN (2013) – 67%
Critics Consensus: While it deserved stronger direction and a more fully realized script, Michael Shannon’s riveting performance in the title role is more than enough to make The Iceman recommended viewing.
