10 Awesome Robert Pattinson Movies To Watch Before The Batman
4. The Rover
A lesser-known film compared to others on this list, The Rover is an Australian dystopian movie starring Pattinson and Guy Pearce as two men in different walks of life trying to survive ten years after a tumultuous economic collapse.
The film sits at around 60% on most critical sites that combine reviews, so it's not a universally acclaimed film by any means, but it was Pattinson's first post-Twilight. The bleak landscape and brutal character he portrays couldn't have been further from the sparkling vampire audiences had become so accustomed to.
His choice to star in the film was definitely a clear indication of a desire to run as far away from his less than ideal perception in the panned franchise as possible, and while The Rover didn't hit it big upon release, it's worth a watch in terms of getting a sense of Pattinson's capabilities after Breaking Dawn Part 2 hit screens.
