Every Ryan Coogler Movie Ranked, From ‘Fruitvale Station’ to ‘Sinners’

He’s done a lot in five movies

Marvel Studios

With just five movies, Ryan Coogler has already established himself as one of the most talented and influential filmmakers of his generation. The fact that he is so young – he has yet to turn 40 – and has so many movies ahead of him, makes his promise even more exciting.

Coogler’s latest – a period-western-slash-gangster-movie-slash-vampire-chiller called “Sinners” cements himself in this rarified stratum. It’s his first original movie since his debut in 2013 and applies everything he has mastered in the years since, on several big-time studio movies, into something stranger, more personal and more profound. And while this would have been a cornerstone of another filmmaker, it feels like an artist who is just getting started.

We are running through his filmography, ranking his features from least-great to greatest, while also keeping an eye on the future. Coogler’s potential seems limitless. We can’t wait to see what’s next.
