Uwe Boll is better.
shareThey're both interchangeable, but neither of them are that brilliant as directors. Looking at both of their body of work they come across as derivative genre mixers trying to IMP Quentin Tarantino.
shareOther than a stylized way of directing, I don't see a lot of similarities to QT, or even an attempt to be similar.
shareIt's their over-stylized directing that makes their work appear like Tarantino-lite.
Vaughn's "Layer Cake" was more subtle and I actually like it a lot, but his later works seem to regress back to over-stylized meta-action movies.
Matthew Vaughn.
shareThey both do things that I like to see in action movies, but other than a few of their movies, they are often only "OK" to "shitty"
shareIs this really a question? Matthew Vaughn has had a proven track record now of making films that are both financially profitable and critically successful. With the exception of Kingsman: The Golden Circle, Vaughn is one of the very few filmmakers working today who can make big-budget studio fare that wins the hearts of both critics and audiences alike, all while retaining a distinct directorial touch to his work. Guy Ritchie made one successful indie flick, then remade it the next year with a bigger budget, only to follow up by making mostly nothing but flops and disappointments for the rest of his career. Vaughn is clearly the more talented filmmaker.
shareI think Guy Ritchie's good movies outweigh Matthew Vaughn's good ones.
