Was he a great director or wasn't he?
It's a no limits poll, but pls be honest and only vote for those you like in over 5/10 at old imdb!

It’s a mixed bag. Some great movies, others really bad. Really liked Blow Out, The Untouchables. Mission to Mars and Bonfire of the Vanities, not so much.

He made some good stuff and then some not quite good stuff. My favorite remains The Untouchables. I dug both Carlito’s Way and Femme Fatale a lot as well.

Scarface, Dressed To Kill and Mission Impossible are my favourites of his.
Why is Passion not on this list? It's hardly his greatest movie, but I still enjoyed it.

One of my favourite filmmakers. I enjoy the vast majority of his films. I find them technically and stylistically audacious, dazzling and thrilling. I voted for 17 of the films you have listed.

Seeing that Carrie 1976 is a favorite, there obviously must be something about that movie that I unfortunately didn't see myself, I only watched in for the first time a few weeks ago, so I didn't watch it when it was new a fresh like I guess many here did.
Thank you all for participating!

Thank you all for participating! I didn't really like Carrie either, even though many consider it to be the best King adaptation. It was a bit too hysterical for my taste.

He is a great director although he hasn't made a really good film in almost over a decade. He was a disciple of Alfred Hitchcock, and gave us some entertaining thrillers. I recommend anyone who hasn't to watch the documentary De Palma.
My favorites of his so far are:
Carrie
The Untouchables
Blow Out
Dressed to Kill
Scarface
