Every Ridley Scott Movie Ranked From Worst To Best (Including House of Gucci)
Ridley Scott has been a consistent fixture in the movie industry since 1977, but what does his filmography look like when ranked from worst to best? From taut historical dramas such as The Last Duel to a new Alien franchise entry, Ridley Scott's movies have offered up some of Hollywood's best pieces of entertainment in recent years. Indeed, Scott's latest release in the form of House of Gucci drew a mixed critical reception, with the film's standout character performances existing in contrast to a poorly paced script.
Hailing from the predominantly working-class area of South Shields, England, Scott and his brother, the late director Tony Scott, were influenced by sci-fi classics such as 2001: A Space Odyssey and The Day the Earth Stood Still. Ridley Scott began his own career making short movies and commercials before finding work with the early serials of Doctor Who in the 1960s. Since making his feature debut, Scott has never stopped; dabbling in various styles and stories, but he remains best-known to the world for his science-fiction entries in the late 1970s and early 1980s that helped establish a whole new era of the genre in cinema at the time.
