Thrillist's 13 Best Ridley Scott Movies, Ranked
Littered with the bodies of dreamy-eyed androids, sweat-drenched warriors, and the occasional chest-bursting space oddity, the movies of Ridley Scott are filled with carnage. Humans battle aliens, robots, and, most frequently, each other in pursuit of power, honor, and glory. Unembarrassed by visual excess and capital-T themes, Scott shoots all these conflicts, whether they play out in a cheering colosseum or in the dark of space, in his maximalist style, capturing every field of wheat and neon-drenched street in all its shiny, light-strewn splendor. He makes the bloody and the brutal look downright pretty.
