\”pride…\” was mediocre while \”atonement\” and \”soloist\” were simply bad. \”Hanna\” as well looks terrible (blue eyes kid trained as the perfect weapon – what is it, 1990s already?). Director like that calls out guy who made 300, watchmen and dawn of the dead? Come on. Even Uve Boll is more director than Wright.

The guy who directed \”The Soloist\” has no right to call out any other director. Sorry

Watch the 6 minute Steadicam shot from \”Atonement\” & I think you might chance your mind.

Spoken like a true professional, slagging of another directors work as if it were a pissing contest, how encouraging

There\’s a lot of editorialising in this article, not much content. The only direct quote from Joe Wright concerning the film; “I think that’s bullshit.”

Well, I think that’s bullshit.

Wright isn\’t wrong for calling \”bullshit\” on Snyder, but he is being a hypocrite. The idea that a child is mature enough to comprehend the psychological effects of murder is no different than assuming a child can understand sex. Anthony Lane said it best in his \”New Yorker\” review of \”Kick-Ass\”:
\”…it is violence, not sex, that our pre-teen heroine learns, but that is a cowardly distinction.\”

If Joe Wright wasn\’t such a shitty filmmaker (Atonement was nauseating) I might take his opinion seriously.

Both aren\’t very good directors. Snyder doesn\’t know what he\’s doing. Hollywood is just getting shittier…

A 6 minute steadicam shot doesn\’t make a director great. It can be indulgent and distracting. A good director does what\’s best suited for the story.

Wright shouldn\’t have pilled on, even though he was correct. Sucker Punch!

Zack Snyder is a hack of epic proportions. That guy doesn\’t have a single original bone in his body and every one of his films shows that. With the exception of SUCKER PUNCH, his films have consisted of a terrible and insulting remake (DAWN OF THE DEAD) and two god-awful, near panel-for-panel adaptations of graphic novels (WATCHMEN and the abysmally awful 300).
So needless to say, his first pathetic attempt at a piece of original material was cloyingly awful to say the least. And yes, all it was, was a prepubescent geek fanboy\’s wet dream of seeing scantily-clad \”chicks\” shooting guns and fighting samurai robots. Give me a break!
And now that Snyder proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that he is a terrible director with no idea how to properly shoot or pace a story (this is what happens when we let said video game nerds who have NO knowledge of cinema whatsoever or even basic storytelling skills, helm a narrative feature. All they know is first-person shooter games and how to operate a game paddle) he is going back to what he does best – working from previously published material in the form of SUPERMAN.

If you thought Bryan Singer\’s version of The Man of Steel was bad, wait \’til you see Snyder\’s crap version.

[\”Watch the 6 minute Steadicam shot from “Atonement” & I think you might chance your mind.\”]

Are you referring to the Dunkirk beach scene that seemed to go on forever?

Try actually watching crap like Atonement and not vomitting. I\’ll take 300 over Joe Wright\’s sickening pap anyday.
