It really depends on the age bracket, however if you’re a student of film literally it would be King of New York, Biloxi Blues, Pulp Fiction, The Deer Hunter, True Romance, Catch me if You Can and last Joe Dirt. Others meh.
 
I don't know, but one of his most underrated films is "communion", which I thought was excellent and weird as hell.
 
The Deer Hunter
The Dead Zone
King of New York
 
True Romance is my favorite but Deer Hunter is his greatest role.

Will always be King of NY for me. First movie I ever saw him in
 
Brainstorm and Communion are his odder films.

Walken has been around for some time. Since the 1960's. Although he was great in Deer Hunter, I would pick a film where he played the primary character.

Anytime Christopher Walken hosted SNL (1990-2008), it was a special event.
I was being a bit facetious but yeah, Brainstorm is weird to say the least. Lots of crazy conspiracies about death and government propaganda surrounding that one. And Communion with the dancing alien bit is gold but yeah, Walken has put in a lot of work.
 
Deer hunter was his best acted role, but I liked him the most in Catch me if you can.
 
Probably The Deer Hunter but I think The Dead Zone is where his weird tall hair quirky guy persona kind of became established.
