    • 40 Metascore
    • 20 Derek Elley
    Trouble Every Day
    Over-long, under-written and needlessly obscure instead of genuinely atmospheric.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 20 Derek Elley
    Dancer in the Dark
    A 2½-hour demo of auteurist self-importance that's artistically bankrupt on almost every level.
    • 35 Metascore

    • 21 Metascore
    • 20 Derek Elley

    The sheer raggedness of the plotting -- and the pic's cynical disdain toward audiences -- is staggering.
    • 23 Metascore
    • 20 Derek Elley
    Formula 51
    There's an appalling amount of talent at waste up on the screen, starting with Jackson and Carlyle whose tall/short, silent/motormouth double act never clicks.
    • 19 Metascore
    • 10 Derek Elley
    Thomas and the Magic Railroad
    All mish-mash.
    • 38 Metascore
    • 10 Derek Elley
    The Specials
    A vulgar, Z-grade variant on last year's "Mystery Men" for those who didn't get their fill the first time around.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 10 Derek Elley
    Fleeing by Night
    An embarrassing failure at almost every level.
    • 36 Metascore
    • 10 Derek Elley
    No Such Thing
    Deadly dull in stretches, and just plain embarrassing in others.
