    Thunderbirds
    Beautiful Brit actress Sophia Myles ("From Hell") is so arch, canny and amusing as the posh, pink-obsessed spy Lady Penelope, it's as if she is acting in the movie this should have been.

    This Thing of Ours
    It's not surprising that This Thing of Ours -- the title refers to the literal translation of La Cosa Nostra -- rings with authenticity and solid acting.

    Phantom
    An interesting addition to a genre that tends too often to disregard artistic technique.

    Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star
    The majority of Dickie Roberts winds up looking like a tame episode of the "Brady Bunch" -- spiked with Spade-esque crudity.

    On_Line
    It's really just about a bunch of pathetic losers whiling away the hours with their hands jammed down their pants.

    No Such Thing
    If you've come to appreciate Hal Hartley's idiosyncratic style through films like "Flirt" and "The Unbelievable Truth," his take on the monster movie genre will intrigue you. But, ultimately, disappoint you.

    Stateside
    Anselmo handles sensitive issues not with kid gloves, but with a metaphorical baseball mitt, fumbling with tone and obviously laboring to force quirks upon characters and situations.

    Returning Mickey Stern
    Prywes has produced a technically accomplished nostalgia piece on a shoestring budget, but the plotting is too sitcom-lite to support its aspirations to magic realism.

    Basic
    Chases its tail for so long, it morphs from a whodunit into a who-cares.

    Hair Show
    The story is so slight, a low-wattage hair dryer could blow it away.

    The Real Cancun
    It actually works as a sometimes funny, occasionally scandalous, but mostly involving narrative.

    Chasing Papi
    This pursuit farce is harmless (if stale) entertainment, but the sledge-hammer attempt to appeal to the country's fastest-growing movie-going demographic makes for a clunky narrative and one-note characters.

    Welcome to Mooseport
    Screenwriter Tom Schulman, who won an Oscar for "Dead Poets Society," gives us a narrative reminiscent of a pup chasing its tail, as characters struggle to catch up with inexplicably chopping and changing motives.

    Crazy as Hell
    The script is so overstuffed with painfully obvious clues (the constant patina of sweat on the cocky doctor's face, for one) that we don't need the ominous rumbles on the soundtrack to tell us where we're headed.

    Catch That Kid
    The family at the center of "Catch" is likable and authentic, but the seriousness of their plight sits uneasily with the shoddily assembled escapist goof it generates.

    Soul Plane
    This one-joke comedy vehicle is flying through a laugh-free zone.

    New York Minute
    In trying to straddle both the grown-up and kiddie worlds with this inappropriately sexualized effort - their first theatrical release since 1995's "It Takes Two" - the Olsens have lost their footing.

    It's All About Love
    A weird hybrid of cloning thriller and futuristic love story, with hints of "The Godfather" and "Ice Castles" - and it wears its disjointed nature like a badge of honor.

    Snipes
    Enough to give you brain strain -- and the pay-off is negligible.

    Beyond Borders
    Makes an earnest stab at illustrating the hardships and sacrifices humanitarian workers contend with - but in the end, all the suffering merely forms an amorphous backdrop for a Harlequin romance.

    Alex & Emma
    From the incessant rain that blurs the joyless Boston setting to the mysterious decision to make a brunette Hudson look as plain as possible, it's an evanescent fancy devoid of sparkle.

    House of 1000 Corpses
    Kicks off as a cheap piece of retro schlock and quickly devolves into a putrid bloodbath with a thin narrative made utterly indecipherable by the first-time director's clueless approach to filmmaking.

    Love in the Time of Money
    An exercise in cynicism every bit as ugly as the shabby digital photography and muddy sound.

    The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
    Unfathomable balderdash.

    Knockaround Guys
    Any one episode of "The Sopranos" would send this ill-conceived folly to sleep with the fishes.

    Never Again
    Clayburgh is the most dignified thing about this dreadfully overwrought, often preposterous romantic comedy.

    Without a Paddle
    A likable trio of actors struggles valiantly but ultimately fails to keep this dopey buddy comedy afloat.

    The 24th Day
    Boasts one of the most ludicrous plots ever committed to digital video.
    • 27 Metascore
    • 12 Megan Lehmann
    Taxi
    This witless action comedy begins to insult the audience's intelligence from the opening scene.
    • 26 Metascore

    Nola
    The film is lousy with cartoonishly off-putting characters.
