    Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace
    Computer technology may be the actual phantom menace, after all.

    The Tao of Steve
    A crowd pleaser, but there's something a bit prim and pre-determined about its conclusions.
    • 33 Metascore
    • 40 Robert Horton
    The Wedding Planner
    She (Lopez) wipes away the unpleasant memories of "The Cell," and serves notice to Julia and Sandra that there's another girl out there who can do romantic comedy-even of the half-baked variety.

    Center Stage
    There isn't a sensible reason to recommend this movie, except that its melange of clichés and conventions is embarrassingly enjoyable.

    Wonderland
    This is a beautiful, surprisingly uplifting movie, made by someone who actually understands people.

    Joe Gould's Secret
    A fitting tribute to an era, a writer, and an unapologetic eccentric.

    In the Company of Men
    One of the best films of the year, a polished, contained piece of provocation.

    The Crew
    A pleasant surprise that The Crew offers up the charms it does.

    South Park: Bigger Longer & Uncut
    The kind of college movie people will be quoting for years.

    • 66 Metascore

    Shadow Magic
    Has a real sense of the wonder of the early years.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 20 Robert Horton
    Just Looking
    A clumsy and tone-deaf comedy.
    • 60 Metascore

    Illuminata
    I'll be damned if I can figure out how its various ingredients are supposed to blend together.
    • 74 Metascore

    The Dish
    If it weren't so pushy about selling itself, The Dish might have been a very special movie.
    • 75 Metascore

    Bulworth
    Bulworth shoots along with great vigor, and its non-politically correct jabs are occasionally exhilarating.
    • 26 Metascore
    • 30 Robert Horton
    Shadow Hours
    A standard morality tale, and looks especially weak in the shadow of "Eyes Wide Shut" and "Fight Club," which it resembles.

    Bridget Jones's Diary
    The movie gives us episodes from her life, and although some of them are charming and all of them well-played, I occasionally found myself wondering why I should want to be interested in this person.

    The Center of the World
    In this case, I have to say, the sense of boredom.
    • 29 Metascore

    Eye of the Beholder
    Not terribly enjoyable to watch.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 60 Robert Horton
    The Green Mile
    I still feel pushed around by Darabont's mysticism, and his overbearing sense of grandness; a little bit of the Mile goes a long way.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Robert Horton
    The Cider House Rules
    Part of the appeal of John Irving's writing is its sense of bounty, the way the world is offered up as a horn of plenty. The Cider House Rules movie, by contrast, feels narrowed down to small slices of experience.

    • 70 Robert Horton
    X-Men
    Nearly the perfect balance between straight-faced pulp action and amused wonder at the outlandish world of comic books.
    • 13 Metascore

    Down to You
    Floating this material slightly above the assembly-line level is the energetic cast and the efforts of writer-director Kris Isacsson.
    • 25 Metascore

    Here on Earth
    So very general in its characters and story that it actively keeps you from enjoying the simple pleasures of a movie like this.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 60 Robert Horton
    Erin Brockovich
    Julia Roberts owns this sweet-natured film.
    • 46 Metascore

    28 Days
    A reminder of why Bullock became a movie star in the first place.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 70 Robert Horton
    Mifune's Last Song
    An acerbically comic fable.
    • 47 Metascore
    • 60 Robert Horton
    Black and White
    Works best as a free-flowing essay.
    • 27 Metascore
    • 20 Robert Horton
    Coyote Ugly
    It probably helps to be loaded while you're watching this movie.
    • 25 Metascore
    • 10 Robert Horton
    The Next Best Thing
    A dismal film, a flop as both 21st-century romantic comedy and gay "Kramer vs. Kramer."
    • 38 Metascore
    • 20 Robert Horton
    The Astronaut's Wife
    One of the least endurable films of 1999.
