Robert Redford has never directed a good movie. River runs through it is boring to the point where i could never make it past halfway through.
and ordinary people is a horrible film. dont know how it won best picture. would give it 3 out of 10. |

Blu-ray Prince

I think he's underrated actually. Many dismiss him as a genre director with two or three great films, but I think he's so much more. In fact, he's one of the premier visual stylists of the past three decades. |

As a director, nobody really rates him. His past few films were ill received but nobody called them disappointments. Plus, he made a legitimately great film: Quiz Show, and for that I'll forgive three or four bad films. |

I think it's so easy to call Rodriguez a "hack", Tarantino rip-off or whatever, but the man does so much (directs, writes, edits, shoots and sometimes scores) and comes out with enjoyable films at the end of it. Plus, he's just a really nice guy...the opposite of Tarantino. |

yeah i think Rodriguez is one of the most admirable directors working now. he does whatever he wants because he can. hes still working by the same ethic he did when he made El Mariachi for $7,000 he just has more money and resources to work with now thanks to his successful franchise of children's movies. the fact that something like Sin City was made essentially independently in his garage is pretty remarkable. even if you dont like his movies you cant really knock the hustle.

Since noone has mentioned him, I'll get in on this debate (instead of knocking it)
![]() He is a decent writer though. |

I'm with you on Michael Mann! I've never understood why he was so embraced by the film-studies lot. As far as I can tell, his use of neon and minimalist architecture seems to have impressed them.
He made horrible, cheesy 80s TV series and then he made some really pedestrian movies, carrying all his outmoded tropes with him. MANHUNTER was scuppered by Mann's terrible taste in music. HEAT was horribly overlong and pretty vacuous. LAST OF THE MOHICANS, COLLATERAL, PUBLIC ENEMIES - all very average. His worst film by a mile is the laughable MIAMI VICE. The only films of his I've liked were THIEF and THE INSIDER. I guess if you live in LA and spend all day on the beach, he'd make sense to you. If Michael Mann was a hairstyle, he'd be a mullet that someone's turned into a ponytail. Last edited by duggie walker; 02-18-2013 at 12:48 PM. |
