Top 10 Ladders in the Movies

There are plenty of ladders, step, rope, extension, attic for example. Have you ever noticed they appear in plenty of movies and can be a great prop for a comedy or action scene.

How exactly does Wonder Woman get out of the trenches and into the most character defining scene of the movie … (er the same way everybody gets out of the trenches), using a ladder. But she makes it grand.

Jackie Chan loves a fight scene with a ladder, but this scene from First Strike using a step ladder as an attack and defence weapon is simply fantastic.

Could we mention step ladders in movies without thinking about Grease 2, quite frankly no. Michelle Pfeiffer climbing up a step ladder mid musical number to continue singing and dancing like it’s no big deal. It is the most memorable part of the movie.

The end action train scene from the over long yet underrated Lone Ranger movie is great and the use of a couple of perfectly timed ladder add to the fun and creativity of the scene.

Sometimes ladders aren’t fun. This rope ladder in Hacksaw Ridge causes a lot of problems and is responsible for a lot of violence.

There are a few ladder scenes across the Jurassic Park franchise, but this poor JP worker hanging round waiting to be unsuspecting T-Rex chow has to be the unluckiest guy on a helicopter rope ladder ever.

The Mummy features some solid comedy librarian on a ladder action.

Kevin has a couple of ladder traps in Home Alone 1 + 2 but this one looks so brutal.

Crazy people riding bungee ladders in Mad Max Fury Road. What.

Ilsa Fausts introduction during the opera house assassination scene of Mission Impossible 5 has everything, suspense, mystery, action, an iconic outfit and she climbs a ladder in massive heels.
