Any time I discuss my favorite directors with friends, one person who I usually forget to mention is Tony Scott. Tony Scott is a good director, but he doesn’t have a legacy attached to his name like so many other great directors. But when you take a closer look and go through all the movies he has directed, you will see that he has definitely had his share of gems.

Let’s discuss some of the better Tony Scott films from throughout the years.

One movie that I will definitely include on this list is True Romance. Supposedly, up and coming screenwriter Quentin Tarantino (this was the early 90s) sold this script to the minimum amount to a studio who put Tony Scott at the helm. Scott may have directed this movie, but its got Tarantino written all over it.

Man On Fire with Denzel Washington is another great film. Denzel is as good as it gets as the hero who plays by his own rules in this film. Dakota Fanning also is great as the supporting actress, although I always thought that swimming was an odd sport choice for her.

One movie that is certainly worthy of mentioning is Crimson Tide. This 1995 underwater suspenseful thriller stars Denzel Washington as a young officer who stages a coup against a ill intentioned general, played by Gene Hackman.

It is tough to make a list of Tony Scott directed movies without giving praise to Enemy Of The State. Will Smith plays a wrongfully accused lawyer who unknowingly ends up with some seriously classified government information and is being hunted down by the government.

The final movie on this list is Top Gun. Top Gun truly defined the late 80s action movie. This film stars Tom Cruise, Val Kilmer, and whoever that guy is who played Goose.

After you go through his catalog, it is clear that Tony Scott is an accomplished director and has had his fair share of great films.

Besides movies, the author additionally regularly contributes articles regarding LED interior lights and the small rug.
