Rating the Warren Beatty Movies

I've been more objective in my ratings than usual and  up-rated several movies for being critical and award winning hits. I don't think Beatty ever made a "Great" movie, and there are a lot of flops. In fact, Beatty made more bad movies (as a percentage of his filmography) than any other 20th Century Star.  That's not just my view - 7 of his movies have a 5.9 IMDB rating - or lower.

Very Good
  1. Bonnie and Clyde (1967)
  2. Heaven Can Wait  (1978)
  3. Reds (1981)
Good
  1. Splendor in the Grass (1961)
  2. McCabe and Mrs. Miller (1971)
  3. Shampoo (1975)
  4. Dick Tracy (1990)
Average
  1. Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone (1961)
  2. All Fall Down (1962)
  3. Lilith (1964)
  4. Mickey One (1965)
  5. Kaleidoscope (1966)
  6. Parallax View (1974)
  7. Bugsy (1991)
Poor
  1. Promise Her Anything (1966)
  2. The Only Game in Town (1970)
  3. $  (Dollars)  (1971)
  4. The Fortune (1975)
  5. Ishtar (1987)
  6. Love Affair (1994)
  7. Bulsworth (1998) 
  8. Town and Country (2001)
  9. Rules Don't Apply (2016)
