    Jing Ke ci Qin Wang
    Meanders along in a confused, confusing way for what feels like hours.

    Harry Is Here to Help
    Often darkly funny and very well acted, it's a pleasingly subtle, Hitchockian thriller with dark comic overtones.

    Bring It On
    Essentially a feature-length commercial for both the growing sport of competitive cheerleading and ESPN2 .

    Secret Ballot
    With its endless takes of characters silently waiting, say, or getting out of bed, this is the kind of film that can be seen only after a full night's sleep. But it is also clever, funny and sometimes moving.

    About a Boy
    Hilarious, acidic Brit comedy.

    Solas
    A lovely, intelligent film from Spain about recognizable human beings with real-life problems.

    Divine Intervention
    Thereare moving moments in this over-hyped satire by the Israeli-Arab writer-director-actor Elia Suleiman, and it's fascinating to get a picture of daily life in prosperous Palestinian neighborhoods.

    Code Unknown: Incomplete Tales of Several Journeys
    The thing that makes Haneke’s Code Unknown so enjoyable and effective is that that he says it in such a wonderfully restrained and light-handed yet suspenseful way.

    Black Hawk Down
    A beautifully filmed, scrupulously authentic but strangely evasive exercise in combat ultra-realism.
    • 57 Metascore

    What's Cooking?
    Lighthearted and smart enough to be one of the best Altmanesque ensemble comedies of the last couple of years.

    Joe Gould's Secret
    An elegant, quietly comical but slightly constricted period piece whose stately pace is all but offset by several impressive performances.

    Wonder Boys
    The smartest movie to come out this year, and it could hardly be better cast.

    Judy Berlin
    Boasts several fine performances and some elegant, eerie black-and- white photography.

    East Is East
    East Is East is "The Full Monty" of 2000, a fresh, funny and poignant film filled with sparkling performances.

    Billy Elliot
    An uplifting, crowd-pleasing film in the tradition of "The Full Monty" that could easily win Oscar nominations for both its 11-year-old star, Jamie Bell, and first-time director, Stephen Daldry.

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

    In July
    Never less than breezily entertaining.

    Such a Long Journey
    An unusually well-written and satisfying multilayered drama that conveys the feel of urban India with more vivid accuracy than anything made in the subcontinent in recent years.

    The Limey
    It's clever, cool fun and it looks great.

    Behind the Sun
    A gorgeously photographed, sun-baked fable.

    Les Destinées
    Elegantly photographed family saga that brims with period detail. Unfortunately, the underlying story is less than compelling,

    The Man Who Wasn't There
    Despite its visual brilliance, its all-round cleverness, and the way it demonstrates a profound understanding of genre, the Coen brothers' The Man Who Wasn't There doesn't quite come off.

    Joe the King
    A poignant, graceful little film.

    The Execution of Wanda Jean
    Compelling but self-undermining documentary.

    Spider-Man
    Surprisingly charming and even witty match for the best of Hollywood's comic-book adaptations.

    Meet the Parents
    Part sitcom, part comedy of manners - but it lacks the courage to deal honestly with class and ethnicity.
    • 73 Metascore

    Our Lady of the Assassins
    Flat dialogue and stiff performances (especially by the street kids, like Ballesteros, turned into actors by Schroeder) don't help.

    Not One Less
    A sweet, lushly photographed but occasionally slow film.
