In our tenth and final round of comparing the recent work of well-regarded film directors, we take a look at the best three films of veterans Spike Lee and Woody Allen. Both had their glory days before this decade, but they have continued to create some well-reviewed work over the past ten years. Again, we use the Metacritic meta-score and only look at their top three best-reviewed works of the past decade. Here's how they stack up:
Round 10
Spike Lee
When the Levees Broke (2006) - 88
Passing Strange (2009) - 85
Inside Man (2006) - 76 (tied with The Original Kings of Comedy, 2000)
Average: 83
Woody Allen
Match Point (2005) - 72
Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008) - 70
Small Time Crooks (2000) - 69
Average: 70
So Spike Lee trounces Woody Allen in this final round of the competition. Come back next week for a list of the top ten greatest working film directors.
