    The strapping Damon's lived-in performance makes us happy to follow Bourne wherever he may go.

    Tries to be many things -- romantic comedy, mockumentary, a satire on beauty and aging -- but ends up succeeding at none.

    An amusing McGimmick.

    • 75 Megan Lehmann
    Delivers its provocative message in the measured tones of a college professor -- yet there's no danger of falling asleep in this lecture.

    A sensual performance from Abbass buoys the flimsy story.

    For a movie that's trumpeted as providing a probing look beyond the comic's onstage patter, there's an awful lot of onstage patter -- and what nasty, hateful stuff it is.

    Campbell is a sweet presence and a capable dancer, featured in a theatrical pas de deux on an open-air stage during a wild thunderstorm that is one of the film's visual highlights.

    This slow-moving Swedish film offers not even a hint of joy, preferring to focus on the humiliation of Martin as he defecates in bed and urinates on the plants at his own birthday party.

    • 38 Megan Lehmann
    Vivid visuals can't save an insipid plot.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 75 Megan Lehmann
    Leigh's uncanny ability to mine emotional truth packs the usual punch. And the trademark flashes of humor sprinkled throughout ease the bleakness of the landscape.

    • 63 Megan Lehmann
    Doesn't have the polish of "Ocean's Eleven" - but it does have George Clooney.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 25 Megan Lehmann
    This furious finger-pointer's doc is so one-sided, it undermines its own integrity.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 75 Megan Lehmann
    A pleasantly diverting period romp that Annette Bening turns into a wickedly funny tour de force.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 75 Megan Lehmann
    It's a hushed work of restrained emotions, elliptical storytelling and spare dialogue, peopled with smart, authentic characters who have drawn you into their lives before you know it.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 63 Megan Lehmann
    The plot is thin as consomme, and the thudding score is distracting, but the heartfelt storytelling and Michael Bertl's disarming cinematography make this a food film to savor.

    • 63 Megan Lehmann
    Corcuera's unflinching documentary Back of the World is a real-life horror story told in three parts.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 75 Megan Lehmann
    As transporting as its otherworldly title suggests.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 63 Megan Lehmann
    There's nothing particularly startling or new in the script by Siegel and his co-writers Lisa Bazadona and Grace Woodard - except that it, refreshingly, draws its characters in real-life shades of gray.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 75 Megan Lehmann
    A leisurely, scene-setting start, peppered with authentic banter and winning localized humor, fleshes out the characters in Manito so well you feel as if you live alongside them.

    • 75 Megan Lehmann
    While immersed in the horror of their plight, you might forget to breathe.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 88 Megan Lehmann
    A comedy as black as the asphalt desert of a mall parking lot.
    • 71 Metascore

    Hilariously overblown, "Cruelty" fairly pops at the seams with the beloved eccentricity of Joel and Ethan Coen, from the fiendishly ludicrous scenarios and casually tossed off visual gags to the razor-sharp repartee.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 75 Megan Lehmann
    Dialogue is sparse in this leisurely paced chase; instead, the bluesy vocals of indigenous singer Archie Roach -- singing de Heer's lyrics -- are layered over the action as a kind of musical narration.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 63 Megan Lehmann
    Less of a "You go, girl" manifesto than its title would suggest.
    • 33 Metascore
    • 25 Megan Lehmann
    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.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 75 Megan Lehmann
    Some of the visual flourishes are a little too obvious, but restrained and subtle storytelling, and fine performances make this delicate coming-of-age tale a treat.

    • 63 Megan Lehmann
    Along with co-writer Emmanuele Bernhein, Ozon...has crafted a contemplative blend of fantasy and reality that illuminates the mysteries of the creative process.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 75 Megan Lehmann
    Succinct yet detailed storytelling, evocative cinematography (by Ellen Kuras) and arresting central performances add up to a trio of engaging character portraits.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 75 Megan Lehmann
    It manages to be both kinetic and dream-like at the same time -- "Run Lola Run" by way of David Lynch.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 38 Megan Lehmann
    Frustratingly superficial.
