Martin Scorsese- All Movies Ranked

Published 2023-12-26
Ranking every Martin Scorsese movie is no easy task. With a director that has made some of the best films of all time (in most people's eyes at least) with Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, Goodfellas, Mean Streets, The Irishman, The Wolf of Wall Street, Casino, Shutter Island, and The Departed just to name a few, it's easy to see why many consider Scorsese to be the best director working today. With his recent Killers of the Flower Moon, starring two of his favorite collaborators in Robert De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio, I figured I would watch every single Martin Scorsese movie, review every single Martin Scorsese movie, and rank every single Martin Scorsese movie. How does The King of Comedy or The Last Temptation of Christ stand up to some of these classics? What is the most overrated Martin Scorsese movie? Are movies like Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore underrated, or do they deserve to rank pretty low on this list?

All of these questions and more will be answered, as I take on the longest video I have ever made! So grab a beer, bucket of popcorn, cannoli, whatever you want, as we take on this man's legendary filmography!

    Not only is Goodfellas (1990) the best Scorsese movie by quite a margin it is also the best gangster / mobster movie of all time eclipsing The Godfather and The Godfather Part II by a slim margin.
  • @polnaszek5
    Super engaging ranking to quite the beefy filmography, Chase. Have so many of Marty’s features to catch and revaluate before even considering to rank them all haha. Out of what I’ve seen Silence is probably his best technical achievement (though similar to your experience I was not the right age to appreciate it yet, was 16 at the time) but my favorite is probably still Shutter Island. Pretty grim and haunting picture that honestly gets a little better every year for me though like Hugo definitely a black sheep for Scorsese. Ya got me pretty pumped to check out Last Temptation of Christ. Been on my watchlist for years, and I think after watching Inside a couple of times (so far the best movie I’ve caught in 2023 and which I hope to make a video on someday) Dafoe has officially become my favorite actor/performer of all time which makes motivated to check out all his credits.

  • @mr.sand7899
    There's a joke with Shutter Island that it was really directed by Christopher Nolan instead of Soccesse.
  • @cooliognr16
    Man, your Casino ranking is killing me. I respect your opinion but damn.
  • @kinghiggins24

  • @samhasanain4841
    Irishman ahead of Casino is beyond insane sorry...this is not even an opinion....it's just objectively better in every way and to rank it that low is an abomination.

  • @batemanlife
    Great video. I just didn't get on with Wolf of Wall St, characters were so shallow I didn't care for them and surprised you put Casino so low but you got the number 1 the same as I would. Marty is a legend.
