I do sometimes wonder why he’s got the profile he’s got, the last real ‘hit’ film he made was Rango, but that’s animated, Mortdeci, Dark Shadows and Lone Ranger all had terrible reviews and lost money – Mortdeci has just turned up on Netflix suspiciously soon after release which is never a good sign.
He’s made some good films (to my taste anyway):
The Original Pirates film.
Public Enemies.
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Once upon a time in Mexico.
Blow.
Donnie Brasco
Black Mass looks good, I’m looking forward to that, both another Pirates film, sod that.
