Though Zoolander has gone down in cinema history as a stoner film for high school kids, upon its release, it actually received some pretty good reviews from critics. Both Variety and the BBC gave it positive reviews, and Salon even said it, “Serves as glossy, throwaway fun, and it features more cameos than you can shake a mascara wand at.”

In the film, Jovovich plays the evil Russian henchwoman, Katinka Ingabogovinanana, who works for a nefarious fashion mogul.

Paradise Hills is a satire of how women are told to be obedient and submissive in our society. In the film, Jovovich plays The Duchess, who runs a secret facility that helps “retrain” rebellious young women.

5 The Fifth Element (1997) – 71%

Milla Jovovichs 10 Best Movies (According To Rotten Tomatoes)

Easily Jovovich’s most recognizable role aside from Resident Evil, The Fifth Element was a massive hit and remains a fan favorite to this day. In the movie, a great evil appears every 5,000 years, and it can only be stopped by a weapon made of five elements … but the fifth element comes in the form of a human (Leeloo, played by Milla Jovovich).

The movie is loaded with a star-studded cast (including one of the best performances of Chris Tucker’s career), epic effects, zany one-liners, and ample amounts of campy fun. The Fifth Element went on to bank almost $264 million at the box office.

4 Dummy (2002) – 71%

2 He Got Game (1998) – 81%

Milla Jovovichs 10 Best Movies (According To Rotten Tomatoes)

Jovovich stars in Spike Lee’s sports drama He Got Game as Dakota, a prostitute living in a rundown hotel next-door to Jacob Shuttlesworth. Jacob has been granted temporary parole from prison to persuade his son to play basketball for the governor’s alma mater.

Dakota and Jacob become romantically involved and Dakota eventually decides to find a better life for herself. Despite being a box office bomb, only earning $22 million against a $25 million budget, the film was hailed by critics, with Roger Ebert saying, “He Got Game is Lee’s best film since Malcolm X.”

1 Dazed And Confused (1993) – 92%

Easily one of the most recognizable films of the 90s, Dazed and Confused is a stoner comedy that many say perfectly embodies what it was like to grow up in the 70s. It’s one of those “movies about nothing”, and rather than having a flashy plot, it simply chronicles the life of a group of high schoolers over a summer.

The movie starred an impressive cast, including Matthew McConaughey, Parker Posey, Ben Affleck, and Renee Zellweger, along with Jovovich. The Associated Press stated, “Very little actually happens but – like life – it’s not always the events that define a time but the characters in it.”
