Didn’t know he passed. Have seen all his films except the bottom 2 on the list.
I have seen the Top 15 Ivan Reitman movies, including seeing 5 of them in theaters. I did not realize he had made so few movies. The only ones I have missed are the two very early ones…both featured a very young Eugene Levy.
