Didn't he direct The Neverending Story? think it was him. Garbage.

Yeah, most of his other stuff is not too great. Air Force one really sucks ass big time, some nice CGI when that tanker is it? can't remember, blows up. But yeah, that's a real rent-payer of a movie. Perfect Storm is another one of his isn't it? that's another CGI-fest with a crap story (even if it is based on a true event). Troy is quite possibly one of the worst films ever, 'nuff said. Then you have Poseidon, a pointless remake of what was a crap film in the first place.

But...

Enemy Mine (a remake of Hell in the Pacific) is an outstandingly good movie, and Outbreak is quite entertaining too. But even if he never made another film ever again, who can fault the man that made Das Boot? It's more than most of us will ever do.
