  1. Fighting
    Murderously dull stretches of dialogue suck most of the fun out of this sloppy drama.
  2. Little Ashes
    I can't imagine what Dali or Buñuel would have made of such bourgeois sentimentality.
  3. Downloading Nancy
    There are brutal scenes with razor blades and other impromptu devices of erotic torment, but what makes the movie a trial to sit through isn't just the heroine's pain-freak tastes.
  4. Blood: The Last Vampire
    Gory but dramatically inert vampire schlocker.
  5. Shrink
    It wants to be "Good Will Hunting" set in the land of "Entourage," but its bummed-out touchy-feeliness is every bit as concocted as its overly jaded showbiz corruption.
  6. The Other Man
    The Other Man is self-conscious, overproduced, overacted Euro-marital hoo-ha.
  7. Creation
    One of those tepid, genteel biopics that's far too busy ennobling its hero to bother giving him any recklessly interesting personality traits.
  8. Our Family Wedding
    Be prepared to swallow a lot of empty-calorie jokes in which blacks and Latinos insult and misunderstand one another in a spirit of vigorous buffoonery.
  9. Repo Men
    A grisly one-note chase thriller.
  10. Around the Bend
    It's the showy story, script, and even staging that wear a fella out in this relentlessly precious feature debut by writer-director Jordan Roberts.
  11. Analyze That
    It's not just that Tony Soprano is richer, darker, cooler, and scarier. The dude gets more laughs.
  12. The Art of War
    The dialogue is chintzy and rhythmless.

    That's the Way I Like It
    Cute, but there's no movie here -- just a transcultural replication.
  14. The Hard Word
    An Australian crime caper that's one part ''Sexy Beast,'' one part ''The Full Monty,'' and three parts very flat soda.

      Ty Burr
    The Mystic Masseur
    The novel is a sharp, Dickensian comedy; the film is just plain dull.
  16. The Cup
    Little more than a plodding celebration of global television trumping everything in its midst.
  17. Two Can Play That Game
    Along comes Two Can Play That Game to demonstrate that antifeminist silliness is color-blind.
  18. La Ciénaga
    It sounds churlish to argue that a movie can have too much integrity for its own good, but that's exactly the problem with La Ciénaga.
  19. The Watcher
    Reeves is a stiff dancer and he delivers his lines in a full leather jacket monotone.

    Bats
    The kind of rote schlocker that rarely makes it to big screens anymore.

    The Next Best Thing
    (Madonna is) clearly full of good intentions; too bad she's lacking discernible emotions.
  22. A Room for Romeo Brass
    More and more independent filmmakers seem to be cobbling together characters and scenes that have surface hook and flash without organic emotional logic.
  23. Novocaine
    There are many things wrong with Novocaine, but the film's most gnawing pain is its clodhopper farfetchedness.
  24. 8 ½ Women
    Keeps teasing you with intimations of the libidinous animal within.
  25. The Road to El Dorado
    This trip down The Road to El Dorado proceeds under the speed limit all the way.
  26. Bicentennial Man
    Director Chris Columbus...seals this comedy in an impenetrable bubble of hollow humanism.
  27. Heaven
    Further sad evidence that Tom Tykwer, director of the resonant and sense-spinning ''Run Lola Run,'' has turned out to be a one-trick pony -- a maker of softheaded metaphysical claptrap. It's enough to make you want to see him run again.
  28. Zus & zo
    The title translates, roughly, as ''This & That,'' a confectionary shrug that pretty well sums up the blasé inconsequentiality of it all.

    Virus
    The pathogenic agent to fear, however, is the one that evidently turned every line of dialogue into inane gibberish.
  30. Les amants criminels
    This remains the one and only fusion of ''Deliverance'' and ''Hansel and Gretel'' that I ever hope to see.
