1. Big
2. Splash
3. Castaway
4. Charlie Wilson's War
5. Philadelphia
6. Turner and Hooch
7. Sleepless In Seattle
8. Toy story 2
This one was easy. Big, hands down. Then Splash, obviously. Synaptic masterclasses, both of them, with Hanks as loose and rolling and quick as great sportsmen can be. Ali, Jordan and Federer come to mind. Of his 'serious' roles, my favorite is Castaway — particularly the 40 minutes of largely silent cinema, a measure of true movie star greatness. Charlie' Wilson's War is the first time he's gone rogue and taken us with him. Turner and Hooch: speaks for itself. Toy story 2: the better Woody film.
