  1. La mission
    The warmth comes through, even if the storytelling is simplistic and clichéd.
  2. Letters to God
    A bland, pious yet touching faith-based tearjerker.
  3. When You're Strange
    When You're Strange, a documentary history of the Doors directed by Tom DiCillo, is for people like me who can stumble onto the scrappiest Doors video on VH1 at 3 a.m. and sit there, mesmerized.
  4. Women Without Men
    Stronger on beautiful imagery than on narrative flow.
  5. Don McKay
    The premise of the short-story-size comic thriller Don McKay is as thin and crumbly as a corn chip.
  6. The Greatest
    A histrionic mess.
  7. Leaves of Grass
    The movie bubbles with intellectual curiosity and narrative ambition.
  8. The Thorn in the Heart
    But overall, this lazy, sweet trifle seems to express the banality of well-being.
  9. Why Did I Get Married Too?
    WDIGMT? serves up speeches about trust and fidelity and rolling with the punches and blah blah blah. But it does so with so little energy that the actors might as well be saying the words blah blah blah.
  10. Breaking Upwards
    Fitfully amusing, mostly annoying rom-com.
  11. Clash of the Titans
    As Zeus, Liam Neeson twinkles where Laurence Olivier kvetched, and Ralph Fiennes, as Zeus' dark brother Hades (who has egged on the revolt to challenge Zeus), has a slinky nastiness.
  12. The Last Song
    And here's the revelation: Miley Cyrus is a really interesting movie star in the making, with an intriguing echo-of-foghorn speaking voice, and a scuffed-up tomboyish physicality (in the Kristen Stewart mode) that sets her apart from daintier girls in her celebrity class.
  13. Hot Tub Time Machine
    With sharp riffs on the intersection of '80s pop culture (ALF, Kid 'N Play, Ronald Reagan!) and 21st-century culture (Twitter, Viagra, Second Life!), this Time Machine is a fun dip into a pool of memories that are best forgotten again once the booze wears off.
  14. Chloe
    The film is Moore's story, and she acts the hell out of one sexy scene, but most of Chloe is plodding and drab.
  15. The Eclipse
    What holds The Eclipse together is Hinds' sorrowful and moving performance as a man haunted in more ways than one.
  16. How to Train Your Dragon
    Rouses you in conventional ways, but it's also the rare animated film that uses 3-D for its breathtaking spatial and emotional possibilities.
  17. Waking Sleeping Beauty
    The joy of cartoons meets the agony of office politics in this fascinating, inside- Hollywood-baseball documentary.
  18. Blue Beard
    Catherine Breillat, the French director of "Fat Girl", blends victim feminism with the threat of slasher violence in this arid ''deconstruction'' of Bluebeard, the wife killer of legend.
  19. Repo Men
    A grisly one-note chase thriller.
  20. The Bounty Hunter
    In The Bounty Hunter, the couple that foils a bunch of tiresome grade-C thriller goons together stays together. Whether or not that's a recipe for love, it's certainly not a formula for romantic-comedy magic.
  21. Diary of a Wimpy Kid
    Does a great job of being in two places at once: In the head and gangly bodies of kids, and in the hearts of those of us who have survived grades 6-8.
  22. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
    The film makes excellent use of the cold Scandinavian landscape to emphasize the story's gloomy loneliness. And Rapace and ? Nyqvist have compelling chemistry.
  23. Greenberg
    Baumbach's movies are addictive dispatches from a genteel jungle of white privilege, where highly educated people behave badly. I can't take my eyes off the exotic wildlife.
  24. IMAX: Hubble 3D
    Awesome documentary.
  25. The Runaways
    The most entertaining thing about The Runaways, a highly watchable if mostly run-of-the-mill group biopic, is that its writer-director, Floria Sigismondi, has a sixth sense for how the Runaways were bad-angel icons first and a rock & roll band second.
  26. City Island
    Andy Garcia reminds you of what a cunning, likable actor he can be.
  27. Vincere
    Mezzogiorno (Love in the Time of Cholera) plays Dalser with the kind of fervent intensity once seen in silent films.
  28. The Exploding Girl
    Gray has an artful, understated way of conveying what's going ?on inside, often simply by focusing his camera on Kazan.
  29. She's Out of My League
    If you're hungry to see a romantic comedy about a genetically and culturally imbalanced geek-meets-babe relationship that makes the one in Knocked Up look like the quintessence of plausible human mating, then by all means subject yourself to the one-joke sub–Judd Apatow snark-athon that is She's Out of My League.
  30. Green Zone
    With Green Zone, though, the malaise has finally hit me. So while Damon's Miller uncovers the (inconvenient) truth of why the U.S. invaded Iraq in 2003, all I want to know is: How does he suggest we get out?
