Your number 1 is stupid – it's his best movie sure, but not his only good movie.
Make a top 10 good movies with bad actors
Stargate was better than independance day.
I feel like sometimes WatchMojo knows cinema, and then sometimes they don't know shit about the art.
Take M. Night Shyamalan OFF THIS LIST!! He was a GREAT director turned BAD, But then turned GREAT again with The Visit, Wayward Pines Season 1, and Split!
Clerks
Neither Joel Schumacher nor M. Night Shyamalan are bad directors. Schumacher directed a couple bad movies but he also directed a couple greats. And M Night had a bad streak. But he's still made more greats than most modern directors.
I agree with the List.
The sixth sense the only best Movie of M. night shyamalan.
Called M. Night Shyamalan, but he kinda redeemed himself with split, we'll see what he comes up with next.
paul w s anderson directed mortal kombat and while it is not a great film it is still classic. so…meh.
Michael Bay is a good director. He has his style and his movies always make enormous box office.
For consideration: Renny Harlin (Prison and Elm St 4 being solid films in an otherwise cookie cutter career )
brett ratner also fucked up xmen 3 last stand
Never saw The Rock, but Pain And Gain is Michael Bay's best movie.
Ok stop. Event horizon is terrible. The movie is a jumbled mess of genres, and is probably one of the flat out dumbest movies I've ever seen
Happy Gilmore, Event Horizon, Independence Day, Red Dragon and The Rock are not very good… I guess they're average.
Andrew davis is a good director
Cool Hand Luke?
the price is wrong bitch!.
What about Drafur by Uwe Boll?
michael bay is not terrible
why wasent chronicle added?
Shyamalan's Unbreakable is still one of the best superhero movie ever made.
I liked Day After Tomorrow and 10,000 BC
I liked Unbreakable too
SOLDIER should have been great. It was a space version of SHANE and had an awesome script by David Webb Peoples.
Sadly, it also had Paul W.S. Anderson as director. Anderson claims that weather forced the movie to be entirely shot in a studio, rather than on location.
wonder will i find uwe boll here
ANDREW DAVIS?????????????????????????
M NIGHT SHYAMALAN IS NOTÂ A BAD DIRECTOR
i mean m night made unbreakable, which is probably the best superhero movie about some finding out they have super powers ever but after that fair enough unless u consider the happening a comedy lol but have to split to see if hes back or not
Brett Ratner also did X-Men: The Last Stand and the Rush hour trilogy
These aren't bad directors
Happy gilmour is not a good movie
uhh Unbreakable was fucking amazing.
Gaspar Noe , only one good film Irreversible even though he hasnt made much. Imo Irreversible is a modern masterpiece.
13 Hours was a good Movie too…
And it Directed By Michael Bay.
Sees michael bay in the list
DISLIKE
No, I don't agree with this list – because it's wrong. Several of the directors made more than one good film, as per critics and audiences worldwide.
Andrew Davis is a decent director. 'Code of Silence', 'Above the Law', 'Under Siege', and 'Holes' were all well-received great movies. Just because he's had some shitty movies(Steal Little, Steal Big and Chain Reaction) doesn't mean he's bad at his day job
I demand you take down Shyamalan , he's far from being a bad director.
WatchMojo's must really hate Shyamalan…That's sad, he had some bad movies, but, Split, Sixth Sense, The Village, Unbreakable…
All these movies & directors are great especially Joel Schumacher and Richard Kelly
there is no bad director, there's jus lack of perspective of watchmojo
Serious lack of Uwe Boll with his movie "Rampage". It is NOT based on a videogame and it was actually pretty good!
i enjowed event horazin
excuse me? pandorum is a good movie cunts
Roland is fantastic. he knows what he wants
M. Nigh shouldn't be here. The Sixth Sense is not his only good film. Unbreakable and Signs immediately come to mind. Basically everything before Lady in the Water was gold and then he made a come back with Split.
