Making movies is a way of understanding myself and the world.

There are different reasons to make movies.

The movies I like to make are very rich and full of passion. Some people see me as an action director, but action is not the only thing in my movies. I always like to show human nature - something deep inside the heart.

Making movies is like herding cats.

There's no point in making films unless you intend to show us something special, otherwise just go out and watch a play.

We have to make some movies we have passion for, respect for.

What's great about making movies is the sort of additive process of bringing people together and having an idea and watching the idea be added to and at the end you have this thing.

There's no point in making a movie just to be making a movie.

The motivation for making movies is that people actually see them.

The most difficult part of making movies is to keep making them. Maybe, you could make the biggest hit in the world, but then the big problem is what to do next and how to maintain devoted to a certain instinct that I have about films.
