Mark Wahlberg – 10 Best Movies

By Vlad Zakh · February 9, 2026

Boogie Nights shows the most range he’s ever displayed, The Departed and The Fighter built a solid career on grounded, working-class roles since, and Ted proved he could anchor pure comedy too. Uncharted mentors Tom Holland’s Nathan Drake, Patriots Day follows a composite officer in the Boston Marathon bombing, Shooter chases a framed Marine sniper, and Three Kings hunts gold after the Gulf War. The Perfect Storm and Lone Survivor round out the list.
