Default Danny Boyle

What do you think of him? A waste is what I usually do. His films often start so well and decend into pants come the third act.
The only exceptions are Shallow Grave (guff all the way through) and Trainspotting (excellent all the way through) and The Beach (bit pants all the time).
Looking at his other films; 28 Days Later, excellent start, brooding mean ol' middle, daft as a brush final third. Slumdog Millionare, a similar feel, I enjoyed the film but the final part felt flat and unispiring, when it should of been the most emotional part of the film. Sunshine, this is possibly the worst culprit, great start to the film, fantastic premise and nice to see the human element involved and just as important to the story and the over bearing theme, however by the final third we are left with a daft stalker film which totally ruins it all.
Or am I talking pants?
