Scott certainly had a lot of misses since Kingdom of Heaven, but... American Gangster (2007), Body of Lies (2008), The Martian (2015) and maybe The Last Duel (2021) ?

Forgot he did The Martian. Enjoyed the book, movie was okay. Haven't seen any of the others.

I'll check them out.

Last duel is fucking ass. It's riddled with, "PWOERFUL WHAMAN"! bullshit.

Never watched the original version, and if I remember a lot of people said it was pretty disappointing.

Wonder if this will do for the film like the director's cut did for Kingdom of Heaven, what's the directors cut really made that into a good film.

That might be the last Ridley Scott movie that I actually enjoyed.

Only if it chops like an hour out of the film and ideally all the parts with Josephine.

The Martian is great. Assuming one isn't a Matt Damon hater.

doubtful. The complaints weren't just that its bad, but also that its offensively false history.

indeed. I imagine there is a world where its a solid movie. solid direction, etc.... except... he took a real world event, with actual documentation, and rewrote history into a modern feminist lens. Again, so the two male versions of the story are actual real documents, which are altered to increase the wifes participation. and then completely invented the wifes side of the story..

this is evil.
I didn't make it through the whole thing.
