    The Banger Sisters
    For the most part, it's both sitcomishly predictable and cloying in its attempts to be poignant.

    The Five Senses
    Fake-sounding dialogue, some over-deliberate performances and five amazingly trite linked stories.

    Beefcake
    A campy docu-drama about the secretly gay world of 1950's muscle magazines.

    Say It Isn't So
    Unfortunately, this version of the familiar formula lacks the inspiration, genuine wit and raunchy charm of 1998's outrageous "There's Something About Mary."

    The Sweetest Thing
    An awkward hybrid of genres that just doesn't work.

    Orange County
    In any case, the presence of O'Hara, Kline, Ramis, Black, Tomlin and John Lithgow (who plays Shaun's father) serve mainly to underline the feebleness of the screenplay and the slackness of the direction.

    Cats & Dogs
    Every good joke in the movie is to be found in those trailers.

    The Minus Man
    A slow, self-consciously low-key, very dull film that strains for eeriness with long silences and affectless performances.

    Place Vendôme
    Heavy-handed, predictable and almost completely unbelievable.

    Jakob the Liar
    A particularly gross exploitation of the Holocaust for financial gain.

    Double Parked
    Essentially a downscale TV movie about spousal and child abuse.

    Sex with Strangers
    Even a hardened voyeur would require the patience of Job to get through this interminable, shapeless documentary about the swinging subculture.
    • 62 Metascore

    Train of Life
    A misguided exercise - a crude merger of "Fiddler on the Roof" and "Schindler's List" that somehow reminds you of "Hogan's Heroes."
    • 64 Metascore

    American Psycho
    A misfiring black comedy oddly reminiscent of all those bad 1990s movies about strippers getting killed at bachelor parties.

    The Man Who Cried
    It's a thinly disguised lecture about intolerance, spotted with historical inaccuracies and groaning with dialogue so dreadful that it makes a fine cast look ridiculous again and again.

    Trembling Before G-d
    It's unfortunate that the people DuBowski profiles tend to be self-indulgent or otherwise unappealing. It's still more unfortunate that the film focuses more on relatively easy issues of acceptance.

    Alice et Martin
    Best watched while doing a crossword or reading the paper.

    Exit Wounds
    This movie, cynically and patronizingly aimed at Seagal's predominantly "urban" audience, is sad, tedious proof that even violent exploitation isn't what it used to be.

    Waga jinsei saiaku no toki
    Mostly an unfunny, rather dull affair.

    Glitter
    Helplessly clichéd, predictable and unaware of its own lameness, it could easily become a camp classic on the order of "Grease 2" and "Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band."

    $pent
    The film is only 91 minutes long, but it seemed to stretch out for days.

    Mission to Mars
    It features well-below-par writing, acting, direction, special effects and music, while oozing a nauseating New Age sentimentality that undermines any tension in the underlying story.
    • 51 Metascore

    All the Little Animals
    A surprisingly nasty fable about a particularly silly, very English brand of animal-rights extremism.
    • 70 Metascore

    Quills
    Resembles a period version of "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" - played dead straight.
    • 22 Metascore
    • 25 Jonathan Foreman
    The Watcher
    A crass, mechanical attempt at a thriller that should have gone straight to video.
    • 14 Metascore

    Rollerball
    This oddly scrambled new version eventually falls apart so badly you feel embarrassed for the people who made it.
    • 30 Metascore

    Dude, Where's My Car?
    An almost chuckle-free mess, so amateurish and lame that the cast often has that embarrassed look you see on dogs given ridiculous haircuts.

    Life and Debt
    Self-righteous, economically illiterate and sometimes flatly dishonest.
    • New York Post
    • 35 Metascore
    • 25 Jonathan Foreman
    Ghosts of Mars
    A deep disappointment to fans of sci-fi and the once great John Carpenter.
    • 48 Metascore

    Titan A.E.
    In the end, it is inadequate, juiceless storytelling that deprives Titan A.E. of any dramatic force.
