Makes (and can only make) derivative gangster films with incoherent plots and babbling dialogue. Swept Away is one of the worst films of the last decade.

I do not disagree with this. I very much enjoy them all the same, though.

don't disagree, but there's nothing wrong with slumming from time to time.

Garden State was pseudo-intellectual glorified teenage-drama bullshit for overly-sensitive, sentimental folks.

I'd rather watch Delta Force than Garden State.

As for Guy, all I can really say is that Lock, Stock and Snatch were well-made movies, if nor original.

Someone will probably be writing philosophical essays on this comparison one day

His movies are entertaining and interesting.

Agreed. In terms of sheer entertainment, it's hard to find a movie better than Lock, Stock.

You got somethin' against gangster movies, dirtyfrank?
