It is a bit depressing that he started at a creative high and just became a director of movies that are more just pure entertainment that don't have much more too them besides surface level stuff. I still like some of his later movies though. Unfortunately he ended his Hollywood career with a lazy remake.
1. Das Boot - 8/10 2. The NeverEnding Story - 7.5/10 3. In the Line of Fire - 7/10 4. Troy - 7/10 5. Enemy Mine - 7/10 6. Air Force One - 7/10 7. The Perfect Storm - 7/10 8. Outbreak - 6.5/10 9. Shattered - 5.5/10 10. Poseidon - 5/10

Peter O'Toole is terrific in Troy. Das Boot has been sitting in my DVR for over a year. I really need to watch it. Troy has been on my watchlist for awhile too. I’ve heard of Enemy Mine, I’ll add it. Thank you for the recommendations.

Outbreak - 5/10 I rate the extended cut of Troy 7/10, but the adding of the Planet of the Apes (2001) theme to the Hector/Achilles fight scene is confusing and ridiculous.

Replacing the badass drumming or whatever in that scene is almost singlehandedly what dropped it down a point. That and the generally inferior pacing.

1. Das Boot - never sen it 2. The NeverEnding Story - ehh 6/10 I guess 3. In the Line of Fire - 8/10 They sure knew how to make a movie like 30 years ago 4. Troy - 5/10 bad version of the book but I like the jumping stab Brad Pitt does at the beginning 5. Enemy Mine - 7/10 yeah I forgot he did that 6. Air Force One - 7.5/10 It was pretty damn good. 7. The Perfect Storm - haven't seen it but I remember it notable for Karen Allen being in it--she wasn't out of circulation that long before Crystal Skull 8. Outbreak - havent seen it 9. Shattered - nope 10. Poseidon - no way
He's a good director --it is a shame he seems to have disappeared. Too damn white probably. Even worse-German.
