Alfie, Hannah and Her Sisters and The Man Who Would Be King are my favorites of Michael Caine!

Elliott in Hannah is a gem. Deathtrap, Dressed to Kill, Sleuth.
Jaws 4:The Revenge.

I've always thought him very talented but I never could quite get there with him as a romantic leading man. I think it was those horrible windshield size glasses he wore for years.

Anyway most of my faves are from his later career.

My top 10 in order:

Cider House Rules
Gambit
Miss Congeniality
Educating Rita
Hannah and Her Sisters
Sleuth
The Quiet American
A Shock to the System
Alfie
The Ipcress Files

bdog -- lol, I almost mentioned Jaws: The Revenge, which is one of my most genuinely guilty pleasures. I grew up loving that movie and saw it countless times as a little kid. I know in my heart that it is abysmal but I don't care, its silliness gets me

I really need to see The Quiet American again
