It's quite amazing how he releases film after film that has been acclaimed by critics and audiences without a single dud for almost 3 decades now. What is your favourite pedro film that came out within the last 2 decades?
shareHe has had a lot of good ones, but not so sure about the premise. If you look here he has at least 13 rated under 6.

I would probably rate Talk to Her as his best.
I was clearly referring to the last 25 years, not his whole career. He has not had a single critical dud since the early 90's.

I'm So Excited wasn't well-received.
Julieta was poorly received by me, although generally it was well-enough liked.
His movies are totally not my cup of tea.
share"I'm So Excited" is a 5.6 and a 48% on RottenTomatoes. "Kika" is also. 6.6 and 57% on RottenTomatoes. That on is just outside the 25 year limit.
share1. I said since the 90's. Not his whole career.
2. Pedro only produced I'm so excited. Underrated masterpiece by the way
Nope. He wrote and directed it.
shareHe only produced it. He was scheduled to have directed it but left before filming.
shareNope. Written and directed by him. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/I%27m_So_Excited_(film)
shareAnyone can edit wikipedia pages. He only produced it. Not directed it
shareThe other poster gave you an IMDb link which you claimed was broken, now you're denying what it says on Wikipedia. You're delusional. Try these.

The first link shows someone else directing it and the second felt like a poor photoshop.
shareI think you need to call your dealer back because he laced his product with something that's making you not think right.
shareThe first link is clearly showing that the director was Pedro AlmodΓ³var.
And the IMDb link is not broken.
Then he hired someone with the same name as director, which must have been awfully confusing on set.

Link is broken
sharei've watched a 1/2 dozen or so almodovar films, many of them recently since the criterion channel was featuring him for a spell. honestly, i was a bit underwhelmed by several of them, & flat out hated tie me up tie me down.
but i left the best for last in that i caught the skin i live in & talk to her most recently, & i thought both of those were absolutely terrific.
I had never heard of him either, so I googled him. Haven't seen any of his films.
