If there is something that can be said about director David Gordon Green, it is that he's been rather inconsistent. Starting off as a strong, promising director with films like George Washington, he seemed set to become one of the modern greats before sidetracking into abysmal comedies such as Your Highness. When all seemed lost, the brief stint of poor decisions paved the way for essentially his second coming. Then along came Joe, which may be his most enjoyably powerful and authentic film in seven years. To say the least, the Green that you love is back with a strong reminder of his skill at portraying rural characters with complex emotions.
