Are you doing just their performances, the movies themselves, or a combination of the two?
The movies overall quality and rating is the primary factor. Expendables 1 was difficult with Arnold, snce his part was so small, same with GOTG 2, and Stallone. If Arnold was somehow great in Junior, but the movie overall, the idea, the story and the execution, was shit, it doesn’t deserve to be high on the list.

Man her movie list is actually pretty awful. What a wasted talent.
Hoping for some magic in the ten I haven’t seen. Still I think she has done well in the two pulp series she’s been in. I can enjoy that stuff (marvel, sw, st, x-men, ya), like I do regular dramas or artsy stuff.

I do own Lilies Of The Field and Edge Of The City. I'm fairly certain I've seen To Sir, With Love in my youth. Still a lot more to see. Haven't been able to find A Raisin In The Sun, A Patch Of Blue, No Way Out or The Slender Thread.
Tried to find out what a proper top ten Sidney Poitier list would look like from someone who has seen all his movies. Used GoldDerby, BFI, IMDB, Letterboxd, various user compiled lists:
1. In The Heat Of The Night 2. A Raisin In The Sun 3. A Patch Of Blue 4. Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner 5. The Defiant Ones 6. Lilies Of The Field 7. Edge Of The City 8. No Way Out 9. To Sir, With Love 10. Blackboard Jungle
Runners up: The Slender Thread, The Bedford Incident, Porgy and Bess, Paris Blues, Buck and the Preacher
Escape Plan - own this. Expect it to be fairly good. Something like Eraser/Raw Deal in quality would be good. At best something like The Last Stand
Sabotage - expecting this to be fairly low on the overall list
Maggie - expecting this to be fairly low on the overall list
Killing Gunther - expecting this to be near the bottom of the list
Iron Mask - expecting this to be near the bottom of the list
Escape Plan was decent, but a better movie for Sly than for Arnold.
Will watch the other four when going through a list of movies from their year.
Watching Sabotage now. Really disappointed on David Ayer’s behalf. Can not have turned out the way he wanted. Not the worst movie I have seen, but far below End Of Watch (or most early Arnold movies) in quality.
