I watched the 1980 movie The Island last night which just came out on Blu-Ray but was not really worth the Blockbuster online rental.

This critic picks Michael Caine's 5 best movies. I really liked him in the recent Batman movies as Bruce Wayne's butler. http://www.craveonline.com/film/articles/182719-five-great-movies-michael-caine

What are some of your favorite Michael Caine films?

I watched the 1980 movie The Island which just came out on DVD and Blu-Ray but was not really worth the Blockbuster online rental.

The critic picks Michael Caine's 5 best movies. I really liked him in the recent Batman movies as Bruce Wayne's butler. Five Great Movies: Michael Caine | CraveOnline (http://www.craveonline.com/film/articles/182719-five-great-movies-michael-caine)

Saw and really enjoyed most of those movies. I have always liked what he said were the 5 stages of an actors career:

Who is Michael Caine?
Get me Michael Caine!
Get me someone like Michael Caine!
Get me a younger Michael Caine!
Who is Michael Caine?

Len Deighton's unnamed spy hero novels, which were turned into the Harry Palmer movies.
The Ipcress File, Funeral in Berlin, and Billion Dollar Brain.
Great books, great movies, and Michael Caine was a great choice.
