Robert Zemeckis has had what could be called a chaotic filmmaking career, in all honesty. His body of work is one of staggering highs and occasionally confounding lows, with the director known for crossing genres and pushing certain limits when it comes to filmmaking technology. This has sometimes paid off, leading to the American director making genuinely groundbreaking classics, though when this approach hasn't paid off, the results can be odd, to say the least.
