  1. Jurassic World Rebirth
    Jurassic Park Rebirth is one of the more successful and satisfying entries in the franchise precisely because it, uh, finds a way to keep Loomis’ mantra close, foregrounding the film’s sense of wonder above a mere blatant cash grab.
  2. The Hunt
    The Hunt stuffs a satire grenade down America’s pants, hoping the shrapnel spreads from sea to shining sea. The explosion is messy, but it sure is an explosion, with a brisk hour-and-half runtime full of violent twists and cackling turns.
  3. Little White Lies
    The trouble with Guillaume Canet's French gloss on "The Big Chill" is that it has no underlying chill.
  4. War on Everyone
    Crass, senseless, and relentlessly talky, War on Everyone mostly seems like a movie at war with itself.
  5. No Reservations
    It's fun to see the glamorous actress turn down her movie-star flame, but it's a pity she's stuck with so many trite gestures on Kate's journey to fulfillment.

    Honey, I Blew Up the Kid
    Honey has enough charm, good humor, and wry gut laughs to smooth over the dull patches and flaws in logic.
  7. The Equalizer 2
    Apart from the film’s occasional spasms of rousing, lightning-choreographed ultraviolence (a confrontation with an apartment full of date-raping finance bros is particularly great), the film is too enamored with its own morose righteousness to be very engaging.
  8. Life After Beth
    The premise would make for a great Funny or Die video, but stretched out to feature length, it runs out of ideas pretty quickly. Still, Plaza is terrific. She commits so fully to her rabid, Romero-esque alter ego, she chews the movie up.
  9. Introducing the Dwights
    Sometimes Brenda Blethyn is content merely to nibble the scenery. In Introducing the Dwights, a drippy Australian family comedy caper, she chomps it to a pulp until we long for her straightforward monstrosity as a mother in "Little Voice."
  10. Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs
    The movie settles into a mode of nice, sweet, safe, and -- sorry, I have to say it -- slightly dull family fun.
  11. Snow White
    That balance of giving the audience the story they know so well but with just the right amount of newness and unpredictability is the true magic of Webb's Snow White.
  12. The Brothers
    Passionate and saucy comedy.
  13. Flawless
    It says a lot for Joel Schumacher's Flawless that you can see the picture's high-concept heart a mile away and still be won over by it.
  14. Mama Africa
    It understands, in a way that speaks forcefully enough about the mechanisms of poverty to transcend the rather simplistic filmmaking.
  15. The Mirror Has Two Faces
    No modern romantic comedy could be more manufactured or … awful.
  16. Tombstone
    If only director George P. Cosmatos (Rambo) knew how to do something with cliches other than throw them into the pot and stir. A preposterously inflated 135 minutes long, Tombstone plays like a three-hour rough cut that’s been trimmed down to a slightly shorter rough cut.
  17. Don McKay
    The premise of the short-story-size comic thriller Don McKay is as thin and crumbly as a corn chip.

    Fat Man and Little Boy
    There is scarcely a performance in Fat Man and Little Boy that is less than commendable. Almost every scene is thoughtfully and tastefully (though not imaginatively) devised. But the characters and shots do not work together to tell a story. Instead, we get a bunch of inconclusive vignettes.
  19. Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga
    If it all feels like less than the sum of all that wig glue and flop sweat and silver lamé — and far short of Ferrell's best — it's also still the kind of movie that frankly, the lowered expectations of These Times are made for: Not a new song or even a very good one, but somehow still enough to hum along.
  20. Zus & zo
    The title translates, roughly, as ''This & That,'' a confectionary shrug that pretty well sums up the blasé inconsequentiality of it all.
  21. The Crocodile Hunter: Collision Course
    The mad genius of this cheerily bonkers feature is the integration of a documentary-style safari into an outlandish fiction involving a fancy-pants CIA pursuit of a downed spy satellite, and a shotgun-wielding outback widow.
  22. Duplex
    Runs into construction problems, maybe from too many foremen. DeVito favors pushy slapstick; Stiller prefers hotshot sarcasm. Barrymore's comic talents are wasted; she's there for decoration.
  23. Face
    Face becomes a study of the immigrant embrace of freedom in America - a bridge built over time and generations.
  24. Going in Style
    A lazy hash of cheap geezer gags and spoon-fed sentiment.
  25. Passenger 57
    In a few of the action sequences, director Kevin Hooks evokes the entertaining preposterousness of the James Bond series. Still, as high-wire action melodrama Passenger 57 is almost laughably implausible.
  26. Prom
    Will Miss Perfect fall for the Leader of the Pack? It helps that he's played by Thomas McDonell, who's not only a dead ringer for the young Johnny Depp but also has a comparable charisma.
  27. Last Night
    Last Night is on to something fascinating. It meditates on the meaning of adultery: the purposes it serves, beyond sex.
  28. How to Talk to Girls at Parties
    What saves it is the casting (Fanning especially is fantastic, both winsome and wonderfully strange) and Mitchell’s obvious fondness for his milieu. His giddy, knowingly camp direction has a sort of glitter-stick DIY spirit that keeps the movie aloft long after the story itself has run out of road.
  29. The Guilt Trip
    The Guilt Trip is not about Rogen, bubbeleh. Streisand is her own once-in-a-lifetime trip, looking gawjuss with that divine voice and those killer fingernails, and the sight of the lady scarfing down four pounds of beef at a Texas steak joint is one a Streisand lover can now cross off her bucket list.
  30. American Ultra
    Check your brain at the popcorn-butter pump in the lobby and enjoy it.
