  1. Hannibal
    Hannibal lacks the rounded emotional elegance of ''The Silence of the Lambs'' (that was a great film; this one is merely good).
  2. Signs & Wonders
    Jonathan Nossiter's second feature (after the intricate and haunting ''Sunday'') strikes unnerving chords of mystery and dismay as it fuses the sinister, jump cut dislocations of a metaphysical thriller like ''Don't Look Now'' with a pain soaked meditation on love, guilt, marriage, and adultery.
  3. Saving Silverman
    In one rotten production -- all involved have managed to create the most unlikable, man hating, woman hating, unfunny idiots since ''Whipped'' ended up on worst movie lists last year.
  4. The Taste of Others
    Jaoui handles her crowd of vivid characters so naturally, and shoots her scenes so unobtrusively, that the diagrammatic cleverness of the plot never overwhelms the intelligence of the observations.
  5. The Million Dollar Hotel
    If any of these characters were half as resonant as Wenders appears to think they are, the film might have seemed charming instead of merely stranded.
  6. Valentine
    Doesn't contain a single scary or imaginative moment.
  7. Head Over Heels
    Bland to dismal.
  8. In the Mood for Love
    Although In the Mood for Love isn't in the mood for action, it dazzles with everything but.
  9. Trolösa
    A domestic tragedy of lacerating vision.
  10. Sugar & Spice
    Fun in its raunchy unwieldiness.
  11. The Wedding Planner
    An out of date 1950s movie.
  12. The Pledge
    Penn is a true talent, but there's just enough languid pretension to The Pledge to make you wonder if he's ultimately more interested in parading his promise as a director than in fulfilling it.
  13. Snatch.
    Guy Ritchie's second feature, is a faux tough caper modeled lock, stock, kit, and caboodle on his earlier film ''Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.''
  14. Antitrust
    While Robbins has a good time playing the boyish devil, the rest of the principals transmit on an awfully low baud rate.
  15. Double Take
    Another racial cartoon buddy movie that eagerly flogs its best laugh -- indeed, its only laugh -- in the trailer.
  16. Save the Last Dance
    This wan, formulaic teen movie from ''Metro'' director Thomas Carter is afraid to pump up the volume on its own interracial, hip hop Romeo and Juliet story, lest it challenge even one sedated viewer or disturb the peace.
  17. Chunhyangdyun
    It's a good bet the average American moviegoer, however familiar with the rhythms of cinematic global culture, has never experienced such a handsomely self contained world.
  18. The Claim
    There's something almost too controlled, cerebral, and overdetermined about Winterbottom's Western notions.
  19. Shadow of the Vampire
    Kicky, elaborately constructed fantasy.
  20. Traffic
    The rare Hollywood epic that dares to entertain an audience by engaging the world.
  21. All the Pretty Horses
    McCarthy's rawhide has become movie Naugahyde, a substance unknown in literature or in nature.
  22. Thirteen Days
    A big, square, rousing political thriller docudrama.
  23. An Everlasting Piece
    In every way dreadful.
  24. Malèna
    You wish that Malena's inner life had been given as much accent as her outer charms.
  25. Before Night Falls
    Arenas' life zigzags before us in a manner as heady and unpredictable as it must have felt to the man who lived it.
  26. The House of Mirth
    This stunning movie -- one of the very best of the year -- makes a much read American classic feel new and freshly devastating.
  27. Dracula 2000
    One of those desultory F/X and no script potboilers that seems to restart itself with every new scene.
  28. State and Main
    Delectably caustic comedy.
  29. O Brother, Where Art Thou?
    Why would filmmakers with this much talent work this hard to thumb their noses at everything they put on screen?
  30. Cast Away
    Hanks towers as a near naked, near biblical man. Zemeckis tells his story -- the screenplay is by William Broyles -- with a control magnificent in what isn't shown as much as in what is.
