10. Nicky (Focus) - This movie looks more like a 90 minute LensCrafters advertisement than a feature length film with one of Hollywood's biggest movie stars and the Wolf of Wall Street's decorative centerpiece.
9. Howard (Collateral Beauty) - Smith plays a man going through tragedy who writes letters to Love, Time, Death and Wells Fargo.
8. Deadshot (Suicide Squad) - Smith really stretches his acting chops as a cool, goofy dad.
7. Robert Neville (I Am Legend) - The scene when Smith gets into an intense conversation with a store full of mannequins is a recipe for goosebumps. Also his dog- dawwwwww!
6. Dr. Bennet Omalu (Concussion) - Tell the truth!
5. Hitch (Hitch) - Smith portrays a Manhattan matchmaker who tries to court gossip columnist Eva Mendes while setting up Kevin James on a date. This is either a terribly elitist mad-lib or a romantic comedy that netted $300 million worldwide. Luckily for the director this movie came just prior to the internet dating craze; if not James' character would have been holed up in his apartment eating microwavable burritos and watching reruns of Mets games while surfing Tinder instead of hooking up with a date doctor like Smith. If Smith is such a player, how come he can't win over Mendes? The plot of this flick is so thick it makes me sick.
4. Bagger Vance (The Legend of Bagger Vance) - This sounds like the worst arcade game ever. Smith plays a mystical caddy which I went as for Halloween in fourth grade. Legend from the set of Bagger Vance has it that "Mystical Caddy" is also what Smith calls his junk.
3. Mike Lowrey (Bad Boys, Bad Boys II) - I would like to see a movie where Will Smith and Martin Lawrence's characters from Bad Boys try to catch Denzel and Mark Wahlberg's characters from 2 Guns.
2. Jay (Men in Black, Men in Black II, Men in Black 3) - Smith and Tommy Lee Jones were ahead of the alien, apocalyptic Hollywood curve with the start of this franchise in 1997.
1. Will Smith (The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air) - The best role of Will Smith's career is Will Smith. The Fresh Prince inspired an entire generation with five words: "Now this is the story..." The show bridged cultural and class gaps, touched on controversial topics and brought one of the most talented actors of our time into the spotlight. Also Snapback hats, neon shirts, overalls with one strap undone, bright blazers, argyle socks, crop tops, short shorts...The Fresh Prince's style has been usurped by hipsters.
