Most Creative Directors

There are hundreds of movies made each year that hit our local movie theaters and cinemas. Some are good and some are bad. Some go on to win Academy Awards and some go on to win Razzie Awards. Most of the time, whether or not a movie does good or not is judged by how well the director did on well... directing the movie. Whether or not a movie is critically acclaimed to be a masterpiece or tends to be disliked by movie critics I will give any movie a chance at watching. Why? Because I like to look at the different directing styles and creativity of the director. I want to see if it really is the directors fault that a movie does bad or if the director deserves the credit he is given when a movie does well. Most of the time creative directors can be liked or disliked pretty easily. I tend to love watching creative movies and I am sure there are many others out there who also do. These five directors are who I believe to be the most creative in Hollywood and who are never afraid to step outside of the box and make something different and unique.
