    Bring It On
    The most exuberantly funny and smartest teen movie this summer, which is something to cheer about.

    Cast Away
    Hanks gives possibly the most compelling performance of his career.

    The Legend of Drunken Master
    Undiluted Jackie Chan, not the watered-down stuff he's been doing stateside.

    Casino
    Eye-popping, exhilarating and occasionally a bit stomach-churning.

    Meet the Parents
    Delivers its humor with clockwork reliability.

    Space Cowboys
    I really wish a younger man than Clint Eastwood had directed it.

    Love & Basketball
    It's Lathan -- with her passionate performance, physical grace and drop-dead-gorgeous looks -- who makes Love and Basketball so entertaining.

    Someone Like You...
    Jackman and Judd are sweet together, so much so that you wish they were in a fresher movie than this.

    Chasing Amy
    What Smith does best in Chasing Amy is write clever, raunchy and emotionally true-to-life dialogue.

    Pleasantville
    Eventually falls into the same candy-coated trap it's trying to expose. But the fact that a movie can acknowledge the trap exists is a step in the right direction.

    Galaxy Quest
    For fans of science fiction...Galaxy Quest is a sweet, funny valentine to their obsessiveness.

    10 Things I Hate About You
    Kat's English assignment, which provides the movie's title, is a sweet finish to an entertaining movie -- and makes 10 Things I Hate About You quite likable.

    Eyes Wide Shut
    A movie with the power and quality of dreams, where reality merges into symbolism and oddly juxtaposed elements crystallize into a single, electrifying whole.

    O Brother, Where Art Thou?
    The risk pays off for Clooney and the Coens, as O Brother, Where Art Thou? is a nicely off-kilter exploration of American gumption.

    Adorenarin doraibu
    A kicky little comedy that shows Quentin Tarantino's influence is alive and well in Japan.

    Braveheart
    Gibson's raw energy and storytelling power in Braveheart are undeniable. If the film doesn't meet his ambitions, it's because he set the bar so high.

    Gladiator
    The warm humanizing element in all the cool stuff is Crowe.

    Scream
    Craven creates his savviest and most frightening movie since the original "A Nightmare on Elm Street" by spoofing the horror cliches and simultaneously reinventing them to scare you all over again.

    The Adventures of Rocky & Bullwinkle
    Has some good throwaway gags -- but far too often, the moviemakers don't throw them away soon enough.

    Seven
    Watching Seven is like cracking open a safe, only to find it crawling with eels

    Southpaw
    It's the hardships that led to Atlanta -- and that he faced after -- that make his story so compelling.

    Bait
    He's hilarious, but through the jokes, you get the sense Foxx knows he deserves better.

    U-571
    Fast-moving, watertight and firing from all tubes.

    Men of Honor
    A bad movie about a great man.

    Unbreakable
    Unbreakable shows Shyamalan as a rapidly maturing filmmaker, taking risks and making them pay off.

    Snow Falling on Cedars
    You just watch one carefully constructed but emotionally vacant image piled up on another - sometimes with regard to an overall effect, but often just for the sake of style over substance.

    Stuart Little
    The single best thing about Stuart Little is Nathan Lane.

    The Green Mile
    Darabont follows King's book fairly closely, allowing the audience to steep itself in the setting and characters slowly, like reading a good novel.
