He's sneering at you
That's right. At you.
shareI mean he is one of the modern top 5 directors for me and in the runnings of top 15 of all time. I get the whole "he's overrated" feelings from many and how he can feel like he's being too lofty.
But if I get some fart sniffing films with high ideas vs Paul w.s Anderson or Michael bay ill take a film snob film any day over that mindless horrible trash.
