So with Independence Day: Resurgence barely making any dents, I figured we might as well rank this guy's notable highs and serious lows.

The Patriot A+
Independence Day A+
Universal Soldier A-
Stargate B+
The Day After Tomorrow B
White House Down C-
Independence Day: Resurgence D+
2012 D+
Godzilla F

Havent seen:

Independence Day D

I doubt I will ever see 10,000 BC (I did start it once but it was a bad copy so stopped watching - from what I saw it wasn't good), and I will actively avoid Stonewall and Anonymous.

The Patriot: A-

Stargate: B+
Universal Soldier: B
White House Down: B-
The Day After Tomorrow: C
10,000 BC: C
2012: C

So I guess, on average, I would place his career in the B- to C+ range.

I have not seen Stonewall. Nor this bad boy:

Yeah, he made films pre-UniSol. All look like garbage.

Putting his career average at B to B-.
Some highs, some lows, but for a sci-fi blockbuster Emmerich is a pretty good choice.

To be honest I don't think I would rate any of those movies higher than a C+ except for Stargate which is around B

I need to rewatch Universal Soldier, can hardly remember it. Mostly, I enjoy his films.

Godzilla gets a lot of bad rep. It's very fun.

I must have completely missed that you like The Patriot so much. Nice to see.
