What other really good movies has Danny De Vito been in? How does "Diner" compare to this?

The Big Kahuna

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0189584/

very similar, a LOT of dialogue

I just saw Bridge to Terabithia, and I simply can't talk about it.

Three others that come to mind are:
Twins
Matilda
Big Fish

Tin Men is ten times better than Diner

[–] sherlock-37 16 years ago

Agreed. But interesting to see how Diner was a pre cursor to Tin Men. A lot of the same dialogue used.

Try Ruthless People. It's not just a great comedy, but teaches lessons in negotiation.

I second that!

Honourable mentions include Ruthless People, Heist, Get Shorty among DeVito movies I've seen.

I second, third and fourth that one. Renaissance Man is one of the most underrated films in history. I've seen it dozens of times and love it every time.

DDV wasn't in Diner! Diner was more fun, Tin Men more poignant
