I mean, the guy made 24 movies and only 5 of them are really recognized as a great movie or a masterpiece. The Godfather, The Godfather Part 2, The Conversation and Apocalypse Now are masterpieces for sure, and his version of Dracula is good as well, but, I mean, the others 19 movies are just garbage, or mediocre, at best.

Rumble Fish is a masterpiece too, just pales in comparison to his other masterpieces

havent seen most of all that, but to be able to make the movies i have seen, you'd have to be great. i think everybody falls off, or is struck with inspiration for one movie but not another, or the fates conspire, but from what ive seen, he knows a thing or two
