Many would disagree based on The Dead Don't Die. Not me tho.

That's the one? Nonsense


It's certainly not Stranger than Paradise, Down By Law, Ghost Dog, Broken Flowers, Only Lovers, or Paterson

Consistently Excellent is an unfair bar. Which filmmakers have the highest slugging percentage? Kubrick, Jarmusch, Tarantino, all good answers

I think he’s made worse than Cry Macho, which was not very good, but watchable. A bit like The Rookie.

J. Edgar was a mess, The Gauntlet mediocre, and Bronco Billy is his worst that I’ve seen.

The 15:17 to Paris is considered his worst, but I have not yet seen it.

He’s directed another 30 movies though, ranging from good to great. He’s also acted in several other classics. Great career.
