  1. Charlie's Angels is finally Cameron Diaz's movie. Her Natalie has a heart as insecure as her body is smokin'.
  2. Showcases a trio of terrific performances.
  3. Would like to be a Halloween treat, but it's more like a nightmare of blandness.
  4. More and more independent filmmakers seem to be cobbling together characters and scenes that have surface hook and flash without organic emotional logic.
  5. The nonprofessional cast of Bahman Ghobadi's remarkable, slow, rough edged feature reveals a simple, piercing grimness and determination framed by the gray, icy landscape of Iranian Kurdistan.
  6. Clever and smooth, yet, like Angèle herself (or Nathalie Baye), the film is almost too placid for its own good.
  7. It may be the first movie that mirrors, in its very syntax, the ''snap crackle and pop'' narcotic superficiality of the E! channel. I mean that as a compliment.
  8. A flat, heebie jeebies thriller.
  9. The laughs are few in this inert, ungenerous comedy.

    Like the meal itself, the movie's both filling and familiar.
  10. A peculiar combination of willful meandering and matter of fact violence, and it occasionally confounds in its attempts to exalt.
  11. A work of intimate and wrenching humanity.
  12. A drama about corruption in the city's transit system that's not only hard boiled but also dipped in egg batter dialogue and deep fried.
  13. May be the most kick ass demonstration yet, for the majority of American moviegoers, of what the fuss is all about.
  14. Pushes and pushes and pushes the emotional throttle without respite.

    A little more script work, at the very least, should have gone into the manufacture of the black comedy Bedazzled.

    The pacing is lumpy, the acting's all over the map.
  15. Silly, undone by lack of faith in its own subject.
  16. Funny and ebullient look at a man in full confusion.
  17. Engages in the cinematic equivalent of not inhaling.
  18. Even as the director, Stephen Daldry, places his star front and center, he doesn't know how to highlight him.
  19. One more case of a winning ''SNL'' character tamed by the wan, fizzled farce around him.
  20. The charm and art of De Felitta's gentle domestic sketch expand far beyond biographical borders.
  21. Nothing Lee has done is as flashy or as mucked up as Bamboozled.
  22. The only fun is in watching Stallone square off against Alan Cumming and Mickey Rourke.
  23. Aa shockingly chintzy spin-off of Fox's post ''Pokémon'' cartoon hit.
  24. These 173 minutes don't drag, they waltz.
  25. It's a bouncy, loose limbed, ''families do the darnedest things'' sitcom that elicits ungrudging laughs.
  26. May be the first movie to fully capture the way that drugs dislocate us from ourselves.
  27. Not one female character escapes mockery or patronizing.
