Midnight Run.

I thought he did well in Men of Honor

I liked The Score.

Meet the Parents is good too.

He's halfheartedly trying. "City by the Sea" was supposed to be a "serious" role, but the results were unimpressive. Now he gets paid off doing Stiller comedies and voiceovers for CGI animated films. But its nothing another hookup with Scorsese or DePalma wouldn't fix.

I though Analyze This and That were possibly the two worst movies ever made. They're closely followed by Showtime.

The Score was o.k. but had potential to be much better. Same with Ronin.

Meet the Parents and the fockers were both funny.

City by the Sea was awful.

15 Minutes was also o.k.

His performances are generally very good, but he needs to have someone else pick his scripts.

Godfather, Goodfellas, Casino... I mean it isn't like those caliber of movies come along very often. So he set the bar pretty high for himself, for the rest of his career.

And by far Godsend was the worst DeNiro movie ever.

And for my money Analyze this is much much much better than Meet the Parents.

Ben Stiller = hack.

He was great in Copland, though his role was somewhat small.

'Hide and Seek' was so bad I wept for him.

I could never sit through Heat. Bored the hell outta me.

I think nobody's making good movies like his old ones anymore, that's a problem. It also seems Martin Scorcese would rather work w/ Leo DiCaprio than anyone else these days, God knows why.

Can be added to the list of crap

Heat was pretty good tho

Heat was fantastic, and his acting was extraordinarily good in it.

Ronin was a mediocre movie, but DeNiro's ability was still good in it. The man seems almost incapable of making a less than interesting acting choice. I thought Meet the Parents was very disappointing, but he was serviceable in that movie, too.
