Comprising a list of the greatest directors in the business is not an easy task. There are many individuals who consistently create some of the best movies of the year.

There are a chosen few directors that will be considered amongst the Hollywood greats. The following directors are my top five favorites at the moment.

Martin Scorsese is simply put, one of the best. When all is said and done, he will go down as one of the greatest of all time. If you are not all too familiar with Scorsese’s work, some of his better movies to see include Raging Bull, Gangs Of New York, Taxi Driver and Goodfellas.

Another incredible director working today is Christopher Nolan. In fact, Nolan might be the best director in Hollywood right now. He has yet to put out a movie that I haven’t absolutely loved; Memento, Inception, The Prestige and The Dark Knight are just some of his best.

One director who has been quietly putting out great movies without getting much recognition until recently is Danny Boyle. Danny Boyle finally won the Academy Award for Best Director, as well as Best Picture, for Slumdog Millionaire.

Another director that must be mentioned in any combination of directors is obviously James Cameron. The man has put out some of the most iconic movies of all time, not to mention the top two highest grossing films of all time, Titanic and Avatar. If you haven’t seen Avatar, you are missing out.

One other director that has to be mentioned on any list of mine is Quentin Tarantino. Where do I even begin? Some of his best movies include Kill Bill: Vol 1, Pulp Fiction, Inglorious Basterds, and Reservoir Dogs.

These are just some of the best directors in the game right now. As long as they continue to make movies, we’ll have great films for years and years to come.
