Definitely. He is praised by the media because his stories are always about a white guy who does bad things and never learns from his mistakes.
He is a good technical director-like Hitchcock, but his employment is entirely due to him providing a message that pleases the studio owners.
The one film where he has a character who does learn from his errors is Nick Nolte in Cape Fear. His relationship with his family improves due to the crisis--however, unlike the original, Nolte's character does not defeat Cady--an act of Nature does (though he puts the handcuffs on Cady's foot-and I think Cady took the handcuffs from a cop?).
