I'm not really sure about "rushed" per se but Tombstone (1993) comes close to fitting the bill. Director quit/fired -- they bring in another guy in name only to direct while Kurt Russell freaking actually directs the film while starring. He was drawing up the blocking and shooting schedule every evening the night before. It's by all accounts a masterpiece and given all that transpired really shouldn't have been. The odds were against it.

Movies can be good and not be masterpieces. Tombstone is great but it's absolutely not without its major flaws.

This is a fair criticism. Tombstone has some great scenes, but it's uneven in spots.. the pace seems to be accelerating at points and then pivots to the romantic entanglements and then back to the core plot and then back again.. it's a bit jumpy in that way.

As a fan of tombstone, but not particularly knowledgeable in terms of movie making or film stuff. What are its major flaws?
