Movies with Kristen Stewart
This is my personal ranking of movies with Kristen Stewart. For those who know her from Twilight only, take this as a suggestion for all the other good movies with her.
----
I did not include her early appearances in "the thirteenth year" and "the flintstones in viva la rock", cause she was just a background actress you saw for 1-2 seconds.

- DirectorFloria SigismondiStarsKristen StewartDakota FanningMichael ShannonA coming-of-age biographical film about the 1970s teenage all-girl rock band The Runaways. The relationship between band members Cherie Currie and Joan Jett is also explored.The best choice to play Joan Jett is definately Kristen Stewart. In my opinion, one of the best performances she ever did.
this movie is about the first all girls punk-/rockband who became icons for female fronted musicians and bands, influenced by david bowie and susie quattro.
movie: 9/10
kristen: 10/10 - DirectorMary Stuart MastersonStarsElizabeth AshleyJayce BartokBruce DernTwo families are brought together by the return of one family's son -- a reunion that conjures up old ghosts and issues that must be addressed.It is very difficult to play a disabled person in a movie. I remember Sigourney Weaver in 'Snowcake' who did an amazing job.
Kristen plays a disabled girl who falls in love. Again one of her best performances!
movie: 8/10
Kristen: 10/10 - DirectorJessica SharzerStarsKristen StewartElizabeth PerkinsRichard HagermanAfter a blurred trauma over the summer, Melinda enters high school a selective mute. Struggling with school, friends, and family, she tells the dark tale of her experiences, and why she has chosen not to speak.A 14 year old Kristen with her first leading role. She plays a girl who lost all her friends for messing up a party when she called the police for being raped. Then she's starting her first highschool year and try to survive all the difficulties taking place during that time and her past.
movie: 9/10
Kristen: 9/10 - DirectorSean PennStarsEmile HirschVince VaughnCatherine KeenerAfter graduating from Emory University, top student and athlete Christopher McCandless abandons his possessions, gives his entire $24,000 savings account to charity and hitchhikes to Alaska to live in the wilderness. Along the way, Christopher encounters a series of characters that shape his life.Kristen has a short role in this film, but she's wonderful! Even though she wrote the song she's singing. A movie to become a fan of her.
Movie: 8/10
Kristen: 9/10 - DirectorPablo LarraínStarsKristen StewartTimothy SpallSally HawkinsDiana Spencer, struggling with mental-health problems during her Christmas holidays with the Royal Family at their Sandringham estate in Norfolk, England, decides to end her decade-long marriage to Prince Charles.the movie has a unique atmosphere, created by the same director who made "jackie" with natalie portman. visually interesting with a stunning performance by kristen, but the story itself can be boring except the surprising end.
movie: 7/10
kristen: 10/10 - DirectorWalter SallesStarsSam RileyGarrett HedlundKristen StewartYoung writer Sal Paradise has his life shaken by the arrival of free-spirited Dean Moriarty and his girl, Marylou. As they travel across the country, they encounter a mix of people who each impact their journey indelibly.a much better performance than in snow white. she's not saying much, its more about feelings and emotions... or in other words: sex,drugs and having fun.
the story reminds a bit of "into the wild" just without having a goal in life.
movie: 7/10
kristen: 9/10 - DirectorTim Blake NelsonStarsSam WaterstonKristen StewartCorey StollMultiple lives intersect in the aftermath of the violent mugging of a Columbia University philosophy professor.kristen plays a supporting role as a depressed student of a university professor (Leadactor), who suffers from self-injury.
since twilight people might pigeonhole kristen for looking so sad or grumpy. to be honest, she's a happy and funny person as you can see in all of her interviews.
but this movie tended to look for exactly this role, and guess what?... kristen was amazing. even with having the smallest supporting-role she was the reason I got tears in my eye. so real and emotional, she delivered an on-point performance.
movie: 7/10
kristen: 9/10 - DirectorJake ScottStarsJames GandolfiniKristen StewartMelissa LeoOn a business trip to New Orleans, a damaged man seeks salvation by caring for a wayward young woman.Kristen plays a table dancer or stripper which is about to receive help/rescue from a guy who saw her to bring her back to the normal life by treating her like his daughter. solid performance and apparently not an easy role for her, due to the amount of skin shown in a few scenes.
Movie: 7/10
Kristen: 8/10 - DirectorRupert SandersStarsKristen StewartChris HemsworthCharlize TheronIn a twist to the fairy tale, the Huntsman ordered to take Snow White into the woods to be killed winds up becoming her protector and mentor in a quest to vanquish the Evil Queen.Kristen is playing the role of Snow White very well, even if she's showing not much face expression like most people always complain about her.
Ive seen tears and smiles though, you feel with her in every single move. THATS why she's such a good actress. And that's the reason she perfectly fits into this movie.
I gave her 8 of 10, because she had a more difficult role to play than in Adventureland.
Movie: 8/10
Kristen: 8/10 - DirectorDavid CronenbergStarsViggo MortensenLéa SeydouxKristen StewartHumans adapt to a synthetic environment, with new transformations and mutations. With his partner Caprice, Saul Tenser, celebrity performance artist, publicly showcases the metamorphosis of his organs in avant-garde performances.Unfortunately, Kristen isnt seen much in this movie, she had just a couple of scenes. But in those her acting was excellent almost at the tip of overacting but it was perfect. If you want to see Kristen's character being attracted to someone and acts enchanting then watch it.
Movie: 7/10
Kristen: 9/10 - DirectorKelly ReichardtStarsMichelle WilliamsKristen StewartLaura DernThe lives of three women intersect in small-town America, where each is imperfectly blazing a trail.wonderful slow movie by kelly reichardt about the life of three different small town woman. kristen plays a young lawyer, who inadvertently finds herself teaching a twice-weekly adult education class, four hours from her home.
movie: 8/10
kristen: 7/10 - DirectorNima NourizadehStarsJesse EisenbergKristen StewartConnie BrittonA stoner - who is in fact a government agent - is marked as a liability and targeted for extermination. But he's too well-trained and too high for them to handle.I forgot to put this title in the list, so I barely remember kristen's performance in this one, though I gave her a plus in my 2015-movielist.
those who know the tv series "chuck", this movie is actually almost exactly like it, just with better actors. to get this straight: jesse and kristen were doing so well as an action couple, they make it all worth watching this flick. cause its just a total b-movie with good leadactors in it.
movie: 6/10
kristen: 8/10 - DirectorGreg MottolaStarsJesse EisenbergKristen StewartRyan ReynoldsIn the summer of 1987, a college graduate takes a 'nowhere' job at his local amusement park, only to find it's the perfect course to get him prepared for the real world.Nice little movie with an amazing cast and good acting performances of them all!
Movie: 7/10
Kristen: 7/10 - DirectorOlivier AssayasStarsKristen StewartLars EidingerSigrid BouazizA personal shopper in Paris refuses to leave the city until she makes contact with her twin brother who previously died there. Her life becomes more complicated when a mysterious person contacts her via text message.average/decent movie and same is the acting. nothing spectacular though.
movie: 7/10
kristen: 7/10 - DirectorOlivier AssayasStarsJuliette BinocheKristen StewartChloë Grace MoretzA film star comes face-to-face with an uncomfortable reflection of herself while starring in a revival of the play that launched her career.beside all good critics about lead actress juliette binoche, kristen - in my opinion - stands out in this film and serves with so much symphathy that whatever happened during the film confuses the viewer and the whole story.
shes playing a personal assistant of a famous actress and did a very good job. if you're not so much into juliette's performance theres nothing left to lay your eyes on in this movie. too many actors with german accents, cause its based in switzerland and germany so its weird to listen to all those english speaking germans, even that I am german myself.
kristen is the comfortable thing to watch in this movie but not that perfect, she makes the movie much better, and even chloe moretz couldnt stand out of her role in this film.
movie: 5/10
kristen: 8/10 - DirectorUdayan PrasadStarsWilliam HurtMaria BelloKristen StewartA road trip through Louisiana transforms three strangers who were originally brought together by their respective feelings of loneliness.Simple story without any tension. Good job by Kristen anyway.
Movie: 5/10
Kristen: 7/10 - DirectorJustin KellyStarsKristen StewartLaura DernJim SturgessA young woman named Savannah Knoop spends six years pretending to be the celebrated author JT LeRoy, the made-up literary persona of her sister-in-law.kristen is playing savannah knoop, the embodied persona of a successfull author who didn't want to be connected to the autobiographic novel she wrote. so she invented this avatar played by kristen stewart. the story is interesting at first, but unfortunately put on screen in a boring way. its okay to watch but don't expect anything mindblowing, except the beautiful score+photography combination sometimes. Kristen gives it a bit edge and its good, but to be honest: I don't really like her in this movie, cause she seems to perform just like in twilight, with not much dialog, and the acting supposed to be emotionless... not the best thing to get rid of her curses. but she did alright.
movie: 6/10
kristen: 6/10 - DirectorCatherine HardwickeStarsKristen StewartRobert PattinsonBilly BurkeWhen Bella Swan moves to a small town in the Pacific Northwest, she falls in love with Edward Cullen, a mysterious classmate who reveals himself to be a 108-year-old vampire.Still the best part of all Twilight movies with a little bit of a story in it. Beside the fact that Twilight won't be any good without Robert and Kristen, she's nothing more than playing a teenager in love the whole time.
movie: 6/10
Kristen: 6/10 - DirectorBill CondonStarsKristen StewartRobert PattinsonTaylor LautnerAfter the birth of Renesmee/Nessie, the Cullens gather other vampire clans in order to protect the child from a false allegation that puts the family in front of the Volturi.finally it all comes to an end, with more suspense, story and not much kissing here and there as its used to be in the former parts.
beside the first twilight movie this is definately the most interesting, with an average performance by Kristen.
movie: 6/10
Kristen: 6/10 - DirectorJon FavreauStarsJosh HutchersonJonah BoboDax ShepardTwo young brothers are drawn into an intergalactic adventure when their house is hurled through the depths of space by the magical board game they are playing.15 years old Kristen and a 13 years old Josh Hutcherson in a 'Jumanji'-like space adventure. A good one for the younger folks, might be boring for adults.
Kristen is playing the old sister of the two kids who are playing 'Zathura'. You can see her in a couple scenes but not that much.
Movie: 6/10
Kristen: 6/10 - DirectorWilliam EubankStarsKristen StewartVincent CasselMamoudou AthieA crew of oceanic researchers working for a deep sea drilling company try to get to safety after a mysterious earthquake devastates their deepwater research and drilling facility located at the bottom of the Mariana Trench.everythings good in this movie, kristen becomes better the further it goes, the audio is hauntingly beautiful, the visuals keep u watching and the art and production design is amazing.
the only reasons that drop the rating is the stereotypical cast, the boring writing and a simple story as simple as it can be.
Movie: 6/10
Kristen: 7/10 - DirectorDanny PangOxide Chun PangStarsDylan McDermottPenelope Ann MillerKristen StewartAn ominous darkness invades a seemingly serene sunflower farm in North Dakota, and the Solomon family is torn apart by suspicion, mayhem and murder.I finally saw this flick and it wasn't that bad. a decent scenery with a decent cast and everything.
but it is supposed to be a horror-movie, which it isn't. its more thrilling then scary, and kristen did not shine in her role.
she had silly and cheesy dialogs.
movie: 5/10
kristen: 6/10 - DirectorRichard GlatzerWash WestmorelandStarsJulianne MooreAlec BaldwinKristen StewartA linguistics professor and her family find their bonds tested when she is diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease.kristen plays a daughter of a smart columbia university teacher who suffers from alzheimer.
this movie doesn't offer anything important for kristen mostly. she just has to play a student without any special characteristics.
from the beginning on she more and more learns to understand what it must feel like, having alzheimer as a mother of 3 children, until she cares for her and understands it clearly with a lovely ending.
Now that I finished watching it, I can understand why the twilight haters are back in place. Actually its very similar what kristen is doing here, you don't see her that much and she couldn't use any of her potential until the end. and that is not enough to shine along with a julianna moore and alec baldwin.
movie: 6/10
kristen: 6/10 - DirectorDavid Gordon GreenStarsJamie BellJosh LucasDermot MulroneyPig farmer and widower John Munn is raising his two sons in an isolated farmhouse, until his troubled brother arrives and changes their lives forever.You can see Kristen at the beginning for not even two minutes.
Movie: 6/10
Kristen: 4/10 - DirectorDavid SladeStarsKristen StewartRobert PattinsonTaylor LautnerAs a string of mysterious killings grips Seattle, Bella, whose high school graduation is fast approaching, is forced to choose between her love for vampire Edward and her friendship with werewolf Jacob.Not much story either. And when it starts getting some action its just as worst as it can be.
