    Jing Ke ci Qin Wang
    A quagmire that reportedly has undergone multiple edits to reach its current incomprehensible state.

    Get Shorty
    Though it sounds like a blueprint for either disaster or dynamite, the movie is a bit too controlled to be either.

    Wonder Boys
    Droll mild amusement.

    From Hell
    With almost as many subplots as corpses, the movie maintains its mild watchability only because the Ripper saga still engrosses.

    Bats
    Really just an update of the kind of hapless grade-Z effort that once played the bottom half of a drive-in double bill.

    The Claim
    The actors seem as frozen as the landscape in this unsuccessful attempt at a grand and profound Western about the California Gold Rush.

    The Medallion
    Longer on action than comedy. But with Chan's affable charm and stunning leaps, kicks and jumps, it's a good-natured and amusing spectacle.

    What's Cooking?
    More interesting as a sociological study than successful as a movie, What's Cooking? gets more involving as it strolls along.

    Shine
    Shine has a story to reckon with and powerhouse male performances.

    Light It Up
    A tough little hostage thriller with crackling dialogue, surprising intelligence and an emotional wallop.

    Play It to the Bone
    Another invigorating, extremely raunchy sports movie from Ron Shelton .

    Gridiron Gang
    The best thing about Gridiron Gang is the performance of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. He is engaging, affable and wholly believable as a former football star turned officer in a juvenile detention center.

    Nights in Rodanthe
    It's tough to make it through Nights in Rodanthe without wincing at its sticky-sweet sentimentality.

    The House of Mirth
    Terence Davies' deliberately paced, earnest adaptation of Edith Wharton's breakthrough novel quietly captures the grim complexities of New York's social world nearly a century ago.

    Sugar & Spice
    Ragged but with an appealing comic edge, the movie is certainly funnier than most of the other comedies that studios have tried to keep from critics until opening day.

    Dragonfly
    When Kevin Costner goes into sensitive-guy mode, beware.

    Agnes Browne
    Great slabs of blarney are washed down with tears and Guinness in this yarn about a struggling Irish clan, and the resulting sentiment is blatant enough to wake Ned Devine.

    Diamonds
    This road-trip piffle is basically a male version of a chick-bonding flick.

    The Tao of Steve
    This quirky, winning sleeper from first-time director Jenniphr Goodman has its pokey moments, but it's no insult to say that it is as pleasantly easygoing as its slacker hero.

    Valentine
    A nose-bleeding mass murderer wears a mask that suggests Roger Ebert is knocking off a group of lifelong female friends.

    The Life and Times of Hank Greenberg
    A model of what a largely talking-heads documentary should be, with on-camera testimonials and lots of film clips that offer layers of context.

    Titus
    There's a lot to talk about but so much outrageousness that the end effect is wearying and not a little absurd.

    Supernova
    Good actors seem plastic and plastic actors seem worse in a knockoff of every rocket-ship movie you've ever seen.

    Erin Brockovich
    A first-rate office comedy of prickly exchanges.

    That's the Way I Like It
    A further dose of "been there/done that."

    Increasingly piquant tale of culture clash in 1954 post-independence India.

    Wild West Comedy Show: 30 Days & 30 Nights - Hollywood to the Heartland
    Vaughn could have used an editor, but Wild West still is a romp with a likable bunch.

    Brother Bear
    A sweet celebration of brotherhood in its many forms. It gently encourages human communion with animals, nature and our fellow man.

    The Closer You Get
    It is tough to fight off the ennui created by this comedy.
