whose father is legendary actor Robert De Niro
"Legendary"? De Niro had an amazing run in the 70s - Mean Streets, Taxi Driver, Godfather Part II. In the 80s, his performance in Raging Bull was probably the best work of his career, and I actually enjoyed his work in King of Comedy. 90s...well, Goodfellas was not primarily his movie, but OK - it was still quality work. Casino - was getting tired of his shtick, kind of meh but whatever.
Since then, I can't think of a single movie he's done that stands out in any way. That's not legendary - one amazing performance in Raging Bull doesn't offset all the crap he's made for the last two decades.

I’ll toss in his performance as a creepy bad guy in 1991’s Cape Fear. Lotta good suspense in that one.

Meet the Fockers was pretty funny. He’s done 135 movies. That’s quite a lot.

He was good as the cross dressing pirate in “Stardust”. Lol. A very good fantasy movie BTW
