  1. Shanghai Noon
    The martial arts wizard shows a nice feel for the Butch and Sundance thing.
  2. Kikujirô no natsu
    Provides an arresting journey through the Japanese countryside and culture.
  3. 8 ½ Women
    Greenaway's film is about making people's jaws drop.
    • Baltimore Sun
  4. Dinosaur
    Offers jaw-dropping visuals, but its troubling images of violence may cause this revolutionary effort to miss the evolutionary boat.
    • Baltimore Sun
  5. Small Time Crooks
    Can be recommended even if just for the presence of Elaine May, who turns in her most charmingly ditzy performance since "A New Leaf."
  6. Road Trip
    The animals in Road Trip are pretty hilarious; as a five-minute short on cable TV's "Animal Planet," this film would be a stitch.
  7. Kadosh
    A wonderfully understated work offering insights to a world where no emotion is simple.
  8. Center Stage
    All that artistry is surrounded by a hackish, paint-by-numbers storyline that makes the time between dance numbers seem endless.
    • Baltimore Sun
  9. Battlefield Earth: A Saga of the Year 3000
    An underlit, overlong, underwritten and overloud albatross of a movie.
    • Baltimore Sun
  10. Hamlet
    Almereyda has done a splendid job of rendering Hamlet as expressive visually as it is verbally.
    • Baltimore Sun
  11. Up at the Villa
    Genteel but ultimately unnecessary entertainment.
  12. I Dreamed of Africa
    Here's hoping your own dreams of Africa are more interesting -- and better acted -- than this movie.
    • Baltimore Sun
  13. Gladiator
    Well, it's better than "The Phantom Menace."
    • Baltimore Sun
  14. Adorenarin doraibu
    There's plenty to like about Adrenaline Drive, including the appealing, sympathetic performances of its two young stars and the tongue-in-cheek humor that pervades the film.
    • Baltimore Sun
  15. The Big Kahuna
    Forgive me for being underwhelmed.
    • Baltimore Sun
  16. Frequency
    An enjoyably complex sci-fi suspense thriller.
    • Baltimore Sun
  17. The Idiots
    Von Trier has assembled a fearless troupe of gifted actors - especially Jorgensen - to explore the outer reaches of human cruelty and vulnerability.
    • Baltimore Sun
  18. The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas
    A tired piece of hackery, made only slightly less distasteful by a couple of inspired moments from supporting player Alan Cumming.
    • Baltimore Sun
  19. Timecode
    Once you get the hang of Figgis' own brand of coercion -- one based on an intricate sound design and musical score -- you find yourself happily going along for the ride.
  20. Croupier
    A marvelously subversive, slyly manipulative effort.
  21. Gossip
    The strong young cast keeps the film from being a total waste.
    • Baltimore Sun
  22. The Last September
    Instead of a sweeping epic, this adaptation of a novel by Elizabeth Bowen is much quieter, a work perhaps too understated and stereotypical for its own good.
  23. U-571
    Sets up a mood of tensile suspense from the beginning and never lets it go.
  24. The Virgin Suicides
    It gets under your skin and into your head, and you don't want it to leave.
  25. Love & Basketball
    The conventional and the cliche are slam-dunked in favor of a fresh, authentic take on passion, ambition and coming of age.
  26. Keeping the Faith
    Depends on breezy attitude and effortless delivery for its success.
  27. American Psycho
    A withering condemnation of a culture where greed is a virtue, a culture that you don't have to feel guilty for laughing at.
    • Baltimore Sun
  28. 28 Days
    Bullock's character goes through some changes, but she never turns into some unrecognizably serious actress.
    • Baltimore Sun
  29. Where the Money Is
    It's just another modest, unsurprising little heist flick. So why is it so much fun? Newman.
  30. East Is East
    Unwisely bills itself as a comedy.
