Yes, of course 5'10'' seems reasonable for Rhames

Daniel says on 17/Apr/08
He doesn't look much taller than Cruise because he ISN'T much taller. In Pulp Fiction, Bruce Willis clearly is at least 2 inches taller than Rhames.

kiki says on 16/Apr/08
in out of sight he looked taller than clooney and clooney is 5'11" but in mi2 he doesn't look much taller than cruise? not sure how tall cruise is?

Daniel says on 4/Apr/08
Nope, he is no more than 5'10''. Again, watch "Pulp Fiction" if you don't believe me

Daniel says on 3/Apr/08
Nope, 5'10'' max, and that's pushing it

thekiddd says on 1/Apr/08
I never thought he was even 6ft. I can see why some people would think that because of his burly body and great posture. But he only looked about 1 inch taller than Sandler in Chuck & Larry. I would say exactly 5'11".

Cj says on 29/Feb/08
ving rhames said in a interview in the sky monthly magazine that he is 5ft 10in if i remember what i read a few years back anyway he went on to say people expect to see me at 6ft2in or 3 when they meet me but im smaller than i look im only 5ft 10in it could of said 11in it was quite a while ago but it shocked me when i read it becaues i thought he was a 6ft+ guy.

dmeyer says on 11/Feb/08
rob is 180 maybe 181 possible ,or is he alwais gonna be 182

Lmeister says on 11/Feb/08
Didn't really look much taller than Adam Sandler in "I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry". I think he is a weak 5ft11.

dmeyer says on 10/Feb/08
ths guy is 5'10.5 to 5'11.25 aleast 179 max 181 182 is a bit high

Daniel says on 18/Dec/07
If you watch Pulp Fiction, it's clear that Rhames is at least 2 inches shorter than Willis, who is listed here at 5'11.5''

Adam Brennon says on 1/Oct/07
Chris, perhaps you should consider his 200 lbs of muscle; it could well account his looking 'huge' at 5' 11".

Viper says on 26/Sep/07
You think he would be 6-4.

Chris says on 24/Sep/07
I'm surprised this guy is only 5'11". Most times he looks huge.

dmeyer says on 20/Sep/07
he can look only 2 in on cruise when cruise has lifts cruise looked 0.75 in taller than 5'9 statham in collateral and 2.5 in over rufalo who is a 5'8 flat i met him ving could be 5'10.5

Mr. R says on 20/Sep/07
Thanks for your support Daniel!

Daniel says on 18/Sep/07
I agree with Mr. R. Rhames is 5'11'' or even less than that.

colton says on 13/Jul/07
he was 210 in undisputed cuz he had to get in boxing shape in dawn of the dead he was atleast 260.

vandal says on 10/Jun/07
Sharon, Danny Devito is 5'1 in his dreams.

Sharon says on 10/Mar/07
Well this is different. Ok he is 5'11 1/2, what the big deal? Where is the website that discusses this brother extradionary acting ability, I think that matters a hell of a lot more than how tall he is. Danny DeVito is 5'1 so what. I guess there are no lovers of the arts here, just those interested in outside appearances oh how boring... bye

Glenn says on 25/Dec/06
He was in town last week.knew where to look.didnt see him.

Derek says on 2/Dec/06
I was wondering the same thing. He looks at least 240.

Anshelm says on 22/Nov/06
I remember him saying (more or less accurately) in Premiere magazine "I'm not that big. I'm 6 feet and 210 pounds". He also mentioned that people are often surprised that he's not as big as they've thought.

Ed says on 2/Nov/06
They must have given Cruise some extra special lifts, and used serious camera trickery in Mission Impossible 3 because he looks maybe an inch shorter than Rhames. I have no doubt Ving is this height, I just think it's comical that with boots he'd be near 6ft1, and little 5ft7 Tom Cruise can look near Ving's size. It just shows you that movies are a lousy way to judge height!

Derek says on 30/Oct/06
I was watching Baby Boy with Ving and Tyrese, and Ving looks marginally taller. A tad under 6' is likely for Ving.

Viper652 says on 7/Jul/06
I thought Ving was mad tall back in the day when I was younger.

Jason says on 6/Jul/06
I really took this guy for a 6 footer, maybe even 6'1. I think it depends on your build, because 5'11 seems to be tricky height to spot, some look 6ft or more, some appear 5'9ish.

Anonymous says on 9/Feb/06
even thaugh he is about 5'11.5" he seems tall maybe because he is big when you see him walking by himself he can easilt look 6'1" or 6'2"

Marc says on 3/Jan/06
I'm Watching Pulp Fiction now. When he was next to John Travolta he was about an .5" to 1" shorter than him. 5'11.5" seems about right. He's pretty burly so probably seems larger than he actually is.

MHouillon says on 30/Jul/05
Just saw Con Air. Rob! He´s a 181 cm max !

MHouillon says on 10/Jul/05
Okay, after watching "Pulp Fiction" and having a closer look to Ving yesterday, I´d put him to a exactly 181cm.

Mr. Awesome says on 7/Jul/05
This height seems fairly accurate...I actually don't think he appears as big on screen as people are indicating. In Pulp Fiction, he looks shorter than Bruce Willis, and he is one of the shortest guys in that film, 'cept Harvey Keitel (who looks short next to anyone and I seriously doubt his claim to be almost 5'8''), and Tim Roth (who is never seen with Ving and is sitting 90% of the time). Pulp Fiction was first movie I had ever seen with Ving in it, and the first time I watched it, I estimated him at 5'10''-5'10.5'' not knowing who he was or his real height. Although I tend to think he's slightly shorter than the mark you have him at, Rob, he certainly could be 5'11''. I think Mr. R is right on with his estimate.

Mr. R says on 26/Jun/05
Hey MHouillon, you aer right. I meant to say DARK BLUE as the Kurt Russell/Ving Rhames movie I worked on. When we shot the film in Summer 2001, it was called PLAGUE SEASON, based on James Ellroy's novel.

MHouillon says on 25/Jun/05
Hi, Mr. R. You worked with Ving and Kurt on DEEP Blue ?

I know there´s a movie with Kurt & Ving that´s titeled DARK Blue. Very mysterious...

Scully ? Yes, Mulder...?

I saw him in "Bringing out the dead" and realised he might be very slightly under the 5'11" mark. 5'10.5" is possible...

Mr. R says on 17/Jun/05
Again, I worked with Ving on a film and stood next to him. I am 5'11.5", and he was about an inch shorter. Ving is 5'10.5"

CasperUK says on 16/Jun/05
He looks massive, i thought he was around 6'4 when i first saw him but i was misled by his bulk. I was suprised to see that he is less than 6 foot, he was barely taller than Clooney in that film they did with J-Lo in it. I suppose having big bulk makes you look massive.

Mr. R says on 19/Apr/05
While shooting Deep Blue with Ving and Kurt Russell, the director Ron Shelton called for a break. I left the stage and began to file out with the others. Somehow, I ended up walking directly behind Ving as we left the room. I was at least an inch taller than him. I peg him at 5'10.5".

Excerpted from the article:
"From watching him on screen, people tend to think of Rhames as a behemoth actor like Michael Clarke Duncan of The Green Mile. Rhames says they’re surprised when they meet him and discover he’s only 6 feet tall, half a foot shorter than Duncan."

Mr R says on 14/Feb/05
He is closer to 5'11" at best.
