I don't see what the devout following is, around him..
I still enjoy Badlands, but even that film is better directed than written or acted. The storyline and characters are so simple and predictable.
Everything he's done after TTOL is made of one dimensional characters, that voiceover and no stoyline, it bored me.
TTOL is visually stunning and a really good film, and so is the richard gere one.
Didn't like New World too.
So IMO.
He has 2 good films, 1 masterpieces and the rest is meh.
Why some people used to compare him to Kubrick? Imo he's not even as good as PTA or Fincher. a good director but his filmography has a lot of misses.
