  1. Rising Sun
    There’s a real spark to Connery’s performance, but except for that Kaufman has produced a middling contradiction, a thriller too polite to hit its target.
  2. The Commuter
    Peppered with implausibilities and foul-smelling red herrings, The Commuter downshifts from a solid cat-and-mouse joyride to a ridiculous howler, insulting its audience’s patience and intelligence at every turn.
  3. The Lizzie McGuire Movie
    Let's face it: Lizzie McGuire (Hilary Duff) is just too darn polished to be a junior-high underdog, even by the standards of her 'luxe suburban environs.
  4. The Corruptor
    Beneath The Corruptor's explosive body count is a rock-solid, visually slick crime thriller set in the squalid netherworld of Manhattan's Chinatown.
  5. Die Another Day
    The savviest and most exciting Bond adventure in years, and that's because there's actually something at stake in it.

    7 Chinese Brothers
    The movie’s soundtrack is excellent. Too bad that it’s one of the only things this cinematic portrait of a serial screw-up has going for it.
  7. Dark Blue World
    The aerial-dogfight scenes, which are beautiful and shot through with jittery panic, are notable for not being staged for videogame kicks.
  8. Breaking Upwards
    Fitfully amusing, mostly annoying rom-com.
  9. Wine Country
    There’s plenty of drinking, bonding, and bickering. But none of the jokes feel as barbed-wire sharp as the material you know these brilliant comic actresses could have come up with if they tossed out the script and just ad-libbed.
  10. An Everlasting Piece
    In every way dreadful.
  11. Scream 3
    About the only thing the movie kills with any decisiveness is your time.
  12. Eraser
    And the guy is really good at his job: He knows how to combine impossibly macho action plus attractive self-amusement into a reliable rhythm of ooof! and wink-wink.
  13. Adrift
    It’s all done expertly and with an unexpectedly deft sleight-of-hand twist in the homestretch that proves once again that Kormakur is the kind of overachieving director that one pigeonholes at their own risk. He has a knack for making the familiar feel more surprising than it is.
  14. Fever Pitch
    It's been a while since a movie made the game of love this winning.
  15. In the Land of Blood and Honey
    In the Land of Blood and Honey captures the sickening way the war in Bosnia became a gray zone of genocide. Yet that, unfortunately, is not enough to make it a good movie.
  16. Straw
    Straw is not exactly subtle, but the emotions are so raw and the performances are so earnest that you’ve really got to have a heart of stone not to care for these people.

    Winter Passing
    Winter Passing is also being called ''the serious Will Ferrell movie,'' but he's not especially serious in it. Put it this way: His character Corbit is one of those movie types who's into ''kar-a-tay,'' which is a joke that must officially die.
  18. Tag
    It’s a ridiculously raunchy and very, very sweet comedy about staying connected to the most important people in your life.

    13 Ghosts
    The unconvincing wraiths appear whether you like it or not in this good-for-a-few-laughs feature.

    Heart and Souls
    Downey’s deftness is so miraculous, in fact, that it’s a shame Heart and Souls never really lets him cut loose.
  21. Across the Universe
    Goofy, pompous, annoyingly boomer-myopic Fab Four musical.
  22. Harsh Times
    Bale is mesmerizing and Rodriguez keeps up with him as the whole unsafe contraption zooms.
  23. Jackass 3-D
    More than ever, Johnny Knoxville and his boys belong to a very elite club of idiocy. They martyr themselves for our diversion, driven at every moment to ask: Are you not entertained?
  24. A Knight's Tale
    Laddish, one joke, genre scrambling rock & roll fairy tale.
  25. Human Nature
    The movie is too cute to take itself too seriously, but it still feels like it was made by some very stoned college students.
  26. How Stella Got Her Groove Back
    Bassett's natural dramatic fierceness, so powerful when incited to action, is at odds with the knee-weakening sexual surrender required by the story.
  27. A Dirty Shame
    A Dirty Shame isn't dirty fun. It's the perv "Footloose."
  28. The Two Jakes
    The Two Jakes is competent and watchable.
  29. Falling Down
    Demagogic shallowness has its appeal, and Falling Down could turn out to be the Network of the '90s. By the end, you may wish he'd just gone home and popped a couple of Excedrin instead.
  30. Nonnas
    Formulaic, dare-I-say-sappy movies, when done right, can be really good, and Nonnas is one such example.
