I watched Revolutionary Road for the first time last night and was blown away. Incredible movie! I'm also a huge fan of Road to Perdition - the cinematography in that movie may be the best I've ever seen. Mendes also has American Beauty (Best Picture winner, I believe), Jarhead (haven't seen this since theaters), Away We Go (never seen), and Skyfall (I was actually disappointed with this one). Next up will be Bond 24.

For me, I'd rank the ones I've seen as follows:

1. Road to Perdition
2. Revolutionary Road
3. American Beauty
4. Skyfall
5. Jarhead

The top 3 are all great movies and really tough to separate. I kind of hope Mendes will be done with Bond after 24. His vision and direction are better suited elsewhere IMO, but I realize Bond (like all franchises in this day and age) is a cash cow.

What says the M/TV Board?

I've only seen Road to Perdition , American Beauty and Skyfall. Road to Perdition I think is great and American Beauty I think is crap and Skyfall was just average.
