Unheard of Leonardo DiCaprio film secures place in his top 10 best ever

Unheard of Leonardo DiCaprio film secures place in his top 10 best ever

Daily Mirrora day ago
Leonjson DiCaprio has had countless hits throughout his career, from Titanic to The Revenant, but it's one of his lesser-known movies that has topped the list on Rotten Tomatoes
Rotten Tomatoes has compiled a list of all Leonardo DiCaprio's films, ranking them based on viewer ratings, and the top 10 is quite unexpected, to put it mildly.

According to genuine fan reviews, the Hollywood actor's highest-rated film turned out to be the 2002 hit Catch Me if You Can, but what other films made the cut?

Cinema enthusiasts might be taken aback to find this overlooked gem, featuring a youthful DiCaprio, at number 10, surpassing some of his most iconic roles.

The 1996 film Marvin's Room boasts an impressive 84% score with over 400 reviews. This meant it outranked the highly acclaimed Wolf of Wall Street, where DiCaprio starred alongside Margot Robbie, portraying Jordan Belfort, a businessman consumed by wealth.
Marvin's Room showcases a stellar cast including a young, promising DiCaprio, who was around 21 at the time of filming. Sharing the screen with him are Meryl Streep, Diane Keaton, Robert De Niro and Hume Cronyn, reports the Irish Star.

In fact, Keaton's performance in the film earned her an Academy Award nomination.
In a tale of sisterly bonds, Bessie, portrayed by Keaton, and Lee, played by Streep, are two estranged sisters who haven't communicated for nearly 20 years. Their contrasting personalities and life paths have kept them apart, but a shocking health revelation is set to alter everything.
One sister remained to look after their bed-bound father, while the other relocated to Ohio to start her own family. It's only when Bessie is diagnosed with leukaemia that they reunite.

Her doctor has told her she needs a bone marrow transplant, leading to an unexpected family gathering.
A review on Rotten Tomatoes states: "This was such a compelling movie with great acting and storyline. I'd never heard of this one, but I'm so glad I watched it. There are some intense scenes, and it is a tearjerker. Meryl Streep was superb as usual, and I was very impressed with Diane Keaton as well. It's definitely worth the watch.
Another viewer commented: "Presence of the two Oscar-winning actresses is great. Their convincing performances spark and create strong strains in the introductory scene that the two sisters see each other again after 20 years of estrangement.
"Meryl was 47 and Diane was 50 when the movie was released. Leonard was only 22.
I believe the young actor has received significant influences from distinguished actors under the circumstances like this as I watch his recent performances."
For those keen to see a young DiCaprio in one of his most underrated film roles, Marvin's Room is available for rent on both Apple TV and Amazon Prime.

Mick Jagger, 82, considering another baby with girlfriend, 38, 'if fate allows'

Legendary rocker Mick Jagger is reportedly considering having another baby with his girlfriend. The 82–year–old is currently engaged to former ballerina Melanie Hamrick, 38, and the pair have an eight-year-old son, Deveraux, known as Devi. According to sources close to the couple, however, the pair may be thinking of adding another little one to their small family. The Daily Mail reports that the pair have spoken about having another baby together 'if fate allows'. They claim that the former rock lothario is a late convert to the joys of a monogamous relationship, thanks in part to his advancing age and Melanie's own charms. 'With people of Mick's age, the ability to go off and cheat is disappearing rapidly,' a source told The Mail. 'So all of these old rockers like Rod Stewart and Mick and Ronnie Wood are now settling down.' Apparently, 'Melanie's secret' is that she's the 'smartest' of all his ex-girlfriends. 'Melanie's secret is that she bends like a ballerina to his every wish,' they explained. 'I would say that of all of his girlfriends, she has been the smartest of the lot. As the song goes, she gives him what he needs.' The source added that Melanie 'likes being Mick's girlfriend' and doesn't make demands of him or pressure him to get married because it's not a priority for her. What's more, the pair are 'very compatible' sharing a lot of interests – especially fitness – which makes them a great match. Supposedly, another reason for Melanie's success is the way she's built bridges with The Rolling Stones' singer's exes. Melanie recently attended Mick's birthday, where his former partner of 22 years, Jerry Hall, – and the mother of his four children – was in attendance, along with Luciana Morad, another ex. One of Melanie's friends told the Mail that 'she gets on great with Jerry and with all of the exes' and she's also got to know Mick's kids, who all like her. More Trending That said, the couple do apparently have one no-go area. 'One thing which she never does is talk about his age or about the age gap,' the Mail's source claimed. 'That does not exist as a topic.' Metro has reached out to Mick and Melanie's reps for comment. Got a story?

James Bond movie lauded as 'the best ever made' with 92% Rotten Tomatoes score is finally made free to stream in huge win for fans

The James Bond movie that boasts a whopping 92 per cent Rotten Tomatoes score, and is often called 'the best ever made,' has finally become free to steam in a huge win for 007 devotees. The knockout thriller has just landed on ITVX, 13 years on from its 2012 release, for action enthusiasts to enjoy. As well as being a fan-favourite, the film was a hit among critics, and garnered glowing praise for its stellar acting, dialogue and action scenes. It was the third of Daniel Craig 's performances as the British Secret Service agent, and was led by Oscar-winning director Sam Mendes - the brain behind 1917 and American Beauty. It is none other than Skyfall - with stars Javier Bardem, Judi Dench and Ralph Fiennes featuring alongside the titular character. The blockbuster follows Bond as he pursues an assassin through Istanbul, in effort to retrieve a stolen list containing the identities of undercover agents. But when the plan goes disastrously wrong, Chief M, played by the iconic Dame Judi, is moved to take action to protect the organisation. The film immediately made waves in the world of cinema upon its release, bringing in excellent reviews and an impressive 92 per cent score on film rating website Rotten Tomatoes. The espionage drama was nominated for a staggering five Oscars, and went on to claim two of them in the categories of Best Sound Editing and Best Original Song, with the latter presented to Brit singer Adele. Cinephiles are no doubt delighted at the now-free presence of the legendary instalment of the film series. It comes as angry fans slammed the Academy earlier this year for not inviting Adele to sing her own song, Skyfall, at the 97th Oscars. Raye delivered a show-stopping performance on stage, singing Adele's hit, with some begging the star to perform the next Bond song. But other fans were left baffled why the Oscars didn't get Adele, who lives in Los Angeles, to 'come from down the street' and perform her James Bond theme song. Instead, Raye - who skipped the BRITs for the occasion - flew across the pond for the performance. Viewers wrote on X: 'Why not just have Adele sing Skyfall #Oscars', 'NO ONE should sing Skyfall aside from Adele!', 'I like Raye, but this is Adele's song forever. Sorry', 'Amazon couldn't have pulled some strings and had Adele perform during this 007 montage?', 'You're telling me they couldn't get Adele to come sing her own song #Oscars', 'Could we not afford Adele or?! #Oscars', 'I'm sorry but only Adele can really sing Skyfall the way it should be sung #Oscars2025'. Zoe Saldaña shook the controversy surrounding her film Emilia Pérez as she earned Best Supporting Actress at the 2025 Oscars . The film immediately made waves in the world of cinema upon its release, bringing in excellent reviews and an impressive 92 per cent score on film rating website Rotten Tomatoes The 97th Academy Awards - which featured a star-studded red carpet - hit a high as the 46-year-old American actress was crowned for the Netflix film. She triumphed over: Monica Barbaro — A Complete Unknown, Ariana Grande — Wicked, Felicity Jones — The Brutalist, and Isabella Rossellini — Conclave. Zoe became the first ever Oscar winner of Dominican descent and made sure to thank her ancestors for paving the way to have a successful acting career in America. She said: 'My grandmother came to this country in 1961 -- I am a proud child of immigrant parents. With dreams and dignity and hard-working hands, and I am the first American on Dominican origin to accept an academy award, and I know I will not be the last. I hope. 'The fact that I'm getting an award for a role where I got to sing and speak in Spanish, my grandmother, if she were here, she would be so delighted, this is for my grandmother. Thank you so much. Thank you.'
