    Planet of the Apes
    Good, but, sadly, not good enough. Well-acted, beautifully shot and splendidly costumed, it's superior to the original in its looks, but not as potent or meaningful in its story line.

    Sweet November
    It's classic movie manipulation gone amok.

    Murder by Numbers
    Starts out dark, thrilling and inventive, then, regrettably, becomes sappy, mainstream and mundane.

    The Four Feathers
    Works as pure escapist entertainment, but it's on the cusp of being smarter -- making it all the more frustrating.

    Dreamcatcher
    So often out of control that it becomes absurd and exasperating.

    Sidewalks of New York
    Though the acting in "Sidewalks" is uniformly fine, particularly among the female cast, it's hard to glimpse any meaningful vision, sly insights or cinematic flair.

    Big Bad Love
    It's frustrating and still oddly likable.

    The Way of the Gun
    A movie that drags.

    Bedazzled
    The clothes are worth it; nothing else is.

    The Emperor's Club
    But with a potentially fascinating study of ethics, of how cheating rich boys become cheating rich men while humble souls do more good in the world, The Emperor's Club doesn't take the audience anywhere smart.

    K-PAX
    Just pass on K-PAX.

    Jeepers Creepers
    Balancing homage with creativity, the picture is tight, stylishly filmed, clever and, importantly, scary.

    Scary Movie 3
    One of the funniest things in Scary Movie 3 is Pamela Anderson. She makes us laugh. And not just at her (though she's game to poke fun at her image) but with her.

    Scotland, Pa.
    Has two other notable things going for it: the brilliant Christopher Walken and a soundtrack packed with songs by the drippy power ballad band Bad Company.

    Titan A.E.
    An impressive array of themes, stories and sequences.

    The Banger Sisters
    A flimsy film that's too clean and corn pone to be anything near rock 'n' roll.

    Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle
    You may strain to recall just what happened an hour after you see it, but there are so many worse things to have to remember in life. It's a relief to focus on something so attractively amusing.

    My First Mister
    Intelligent teens will hate this film, and adults will just be embarrassed.

    Vertical Limit
    One of the most wearisome "high adrenaline" movies to come along in a while.
    • 48 Metascore

    The Core
    With a less popcorn-friendly cast and some cheesy special effects, this is a surprisingly engaging, sometimes foolish but often roughly intelligent film.

    Shallow Hal
    Unafraid of walking the fine line between the repellent and the human, Shallow Hal is wickedly funny but heartfelt.

    The Mummy Returns
    So action-packed from start to finish that the final result is grating rather than thrilling.

    xXx
    It's too ridiculous, too flatly acted, too action-packed, too, well, fun.

    Borstal Boy
    Though exploring, among other things, fallibility, homosexuality, injustice and loss, the picture seems afraid to really make any kind of strong statement, whether political or psychological.

    The Guru
    Terrific musical numbers and interesting premise.

    Legally Blonde 2: Red, White & Blonde
    Though there are some funny moments, little in "Red, White and Blonde" is enjoyable.

    Big Trouble
    It's something we might mildly enjoy on an airplane (well, not anymore) or on a lazy Sunday TV day when nothing else is on, but in theaters, it's a clunker.

    The Woman Chaser
    It's a heap of contradictions that will leave your head spinning.
    • 46 Metascore
    • 58 Kim Morgan
    All Over the Guy
    It's still trite and a little too cutesy for its own good. Gay or straight, the cliches remain, but not to a stultifying degree.
    • 46 Metascore

    Pumpkin
    Jas some nice moments, a great soundtrack and some wonderful works by the dark-even-while-light Ricci.
