So, my criteria when compiling this list: Is the movie good? Is Vin Diesel good in it? If the answer to both was yes, it made the list. There's a Vin Diesel movie, and there's a movie that merely has Vin Diesel in it, offering a few lines of voice acting or a single-scene cameo to movies that otherwise don't actually star him. Rather, it's meant to rank them by their Vin Diesel factor. And before all you Saving Private Ryan-heads get all fussy, let me say that this list is not a ranking of movie quality. What to do with all these movies and all these gravelly-voiced performances? We do what we do best: pick the greatest ones and rank them, of course.

Dudes in sports cars who steal a bunch of VCRs? A genetically enhanced criminal warrior who can see in complete darkness? An extreme sports enthusiast recruited by the government to fight crime? The dude's got a certain look, but he also has range, and has made a bunch of unlikely franchises that improbably keep going for years.

In his career spanning 30 movies and counting, Vin Diesel has carved out a niche for himself playing macho good guys, macho bad guys, and tiny little tree children who dance in flowerpots.
