Movies you dislike by directors you like

[ophone]

I start with:
The Bridges of Madison County (1995, Clint Eastwood)

[jt839]

Manchurian Candidate (Jonathan Demme)
New York, New York (Martin Scorsese) (I'm also not a big fan of Cape Fear but I don't dislike it)

[DR Herbert West]

White Squall (Ridley Scott)

[Cremildo]

Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex* (*But Were Afraid to Ask)

[ophone]

Barton Fink (1991, Coen brothers)
But I guess I might have to rewatch it, maybe I wasn't in the right mood the first time.
Rewatching No Country for Old Men made me change my opinion from mediocre to great.

John Carpenter: either like or lovelovelove every theatrical feature he directed from Dark Star in 1974 to They Live in 1988... but don't like anything after that.

I don't hate it, but The Terminal from Steven Spielberg is by far my least favorite film from my favorite director.

[VictoryAtNight]

The Fabelmans ~ Steven Spielberg

Cabin Fever ~ Eli Roth

[slumcat]

West Side Story - Spielberg
Asteroid City - Wes Anderson

[The hitcher]

I'll do the inverse

I don't like De Palma, but Christine, uh, Carrie is good

Did'ja mean to say "Carrie"? Christine is Carpenter.

Right

Dunkirk - Christopher Nolan. It just seemed that by this point all the press about him being the thinking man’s director had gone to his head and he made a fairly straightforward story far more convoluted and timey-wimey than necessary ‘just cuz’. It irritated me.

The Trouble with Harry - Hitchcock

[traths]

Topaz and Torn Curtain by Alfred Hitchcock

These were the first that came to mind, and I am not a fan of Cape Fear too!

I add also:
A Foreign Affair (Billy Wilder)

[BluBonnet]

Alfred Hitchcock's Waltzes from Vienna - and I even managed to watch it in 35mm.

[Boccaccio]

I'm a big Michael Mann fan but I just saw The Keep for the first time and I thought it was terrible.

[AKORIS]

Spielberg-- ALWAYS, THE TERMINAL

Michael Mann-- MIAMI VICE

Ridley Scott-- ROBIN HOOD, BODY OF LIES, EXODUS:GODS AND KINGS

Matthew Vaughn-- LAYER CAKE, STARDUST

[Damon1281]

Tim Burton - Dark Shadows
