Man, I feel old. I asked a 24 yr old bartendress this same question the other day. She didn't know of any movies he was in other than The Rock, and was shocked at how old he was (and how good looking he was and still is for his age).
My least favorite has to be Highlander, where you have Sean Connery playing a Spaniard with a Scottish accent, Christopher Lambert playing a Scotsman with a French accent, Clancy Brown playing a Kurgan with a junkyard dog's accent, and some of silliest most unconvincing fight scenes every put to film.
But hey, the Queen songs were good. What is it about Queen doing great music for really bad movies in the '80s?
He had some good roles other than James Bond. My favorite is 'Medicine Man' (1992) which he did with Lorraine Bracco. He's a research biologist living in the Brazilian rain forest who accidently discovers a cure for cancer but can't duplicate the formula.
'The Hunt for Red October' was good also.
LOVED Medicine Man. I actually bought that DVD, and I very rarely buy movies.
Got to disagree on Red October. That was one of those occasions where they changed the movie to suit his Scottish accent, even if it didn't make sense. Hello, a Scottish accent on a Russian nuclear submarine? Puleez.
Fortunately, he never tries to fake another accent he can't deliver. So, it's on the producers, etc., of movies who hire him in completely inappropriate roles where a Scottish accent is ridiculous.
The Medicine Man worked, though. I can watch it over and over again.
