Robin Williams Ranked
Poor Robin Williams was an incredible entertainer known for playing a wide variety of characters, in dramas and comedies alike. There was no one better at those impersonations and one-liners with rapid switching. Often clean-shaven in comedies while bearded in dramatic films, Williams brought a lot of joy to peoples lives over the duration of his wonderful career. Humble and softspoken, he would often play men who have suffered a trauma or loss. These are all the Robin Williams films I have seen thus far.
