Haven't watched Apt Pupil and Jack the giant slayer.
The Usual suspects and Valkyrie are great. X1 was decent when it came out and X2 is also solid, but neither hold up today. Superman returns was a borefest. Xmen dofp was very good but could have been more.
Personally, he seems better at handling drama/suspense type films.
Xmen can be so much more under a director who embraces the look, colors and wackiness of the comic books and FOX animated show.
