      Ty Burr
    Spice World
    Shabbily filmed, thoroughly harmless Official Product.
  2. Undead
    On the level of a no-budget student film in which the shots barely match up into sequences. It's about as much fun as watching blood dry.
  3. Town & Country
    Just coarse, clunky, jerry rigged, and -- worst of all -- not funny.
  4. Eulogy
    The cast itself is weirdly overqualified.
  5. Ultrasuede: In Search of Halston
    The film's darkly bedazzled view of the '70s is spurred by great dish from André Leon Talley, Liza Minnelli, and Nile Rodgers, who set the stage for Halston's triumphs - and his jaw-dropping fall.
  6. Elektra
    Just as all regular models can't be supermodels, so all action chicks can't be superheroines. Elektra Natchios turns out to be walled off rather than mysteriously alluring; blank rather than deep.
  7. Mr. Destiny
    This high-concept update of It’s a Wonderful Life, Mr. Destiny, is pure formula treacle, but James Belushi, playing a schlub who learns what life would have been like had he become a big executive, is at his most immediate and appealing.
  8. The Mummy
    I’m not sure that this aimless, lukewarm take on The Mummy is how the studio dreamed that its Dark Universe would begin. But it’s just good enough to keep you curious about what comes next.
  9. Vacation
    What’s missing is the pent-up anger that simmered behind Chevy Chase’s doofus grin. His Clark was always on the verge of a nuclear-family meltdown. Helms lacks Chase’s passive-aggressive edginess.
  10. The Bubble
    Both directors have made much better movies; go watch one of those instead.

    A Kid in King Arthur's Court
    Watered-down versions of once-winning formulas, with recycled charms best suited to snowbound preteens.

    My Best Friend's Girl
    The actors (especially Alec Baldwin, as Tank's horndog dad) elevate the material slightly, but such piffle will just fill you with longing...for a better movie.
  13. Jonah Hex
    The star is done in by the deathless mediocrity of the production, an assemblage of random camera shots, messy editing, redundant scenes, and witless dialogue as haphazardly stitched together as the flesh on Jonah Hex's face.
  14. Collateral Damage
    The result is an ''action film'' mired in stasis. The ending piles on the potboiler mayhem, but it's telling that Schwarzenegger's climactic catchphrase is down to one measly word. This time, he's the luggage.
  15. Diamonds
    This condescending story wastes him (Douglas).
  16. Lara Croft: Tomb Raider
    This is just cut-rate, generic daughter of Indy Jones hokum.
  17. Raise Your Voice
    Hilary Duff makes me long for the comparatively Dostoyevskian depths of Sandra Dee.
  18. Shadowboxer
    It doesn't take long to figure out that Shadowboxer 's Helen Mirren, as a cancer-ridden hitwoman, and Cuba Gooding Jr., as her doting stepson, are the most unconvincing team of hired assassins in movie history.
  19. Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip
    The Road Chip fails to even cross to the low bar of Slang & Fart movies — though, in its defense, it’s also barely a movie.
    • 33 Metascore

    Grandma's Boy
    Does a very thorough job of reducing every recognizable member of the cast to probable career lows.
  21. The Grudge 2
    Once again, we're treated to loosely aligned scenes of half-formed characters getting a faceful of director Takashi Shimizu's croaking, implacable, and, yes, still scary housewife-geist.
  22. The Divergent Series: Allegiant
    Allegiant aches to be a thought-provoking, moving allegory of the current world. Instead, it’s an unwieldy two hours too unintentionally silly to validate how seriously it takes itself.
  23. The Stepfather
    The trouble with the movie, apart from its rather monotonous dourness of tone, is that everyone in the family, especially the reformed-delinquent high school son (Penn Badgley), comes off as tougher, smarter, and quicker on the draw than the stepfather who's supposed to be outfoxing them.
  24. Blood and Chocolate
    Werewolves are tame with overuse, and movies like Blood and Chocolate -- where moments of inspiration vie in vain with Goth cliché -- play like underlit "Charmed" reruns.
  25. The Only Living Boy in New York
    Despite the silly and sentimental nature of his dialogue, Bridges, in this wondrous emeritus phase of his career, sells every single line. Well, almost every.
  26. If Lucy Fell
    Quick, get the bug repellent, it’s another infestation of clueless, chatty, goofily dressed Gen Xers flitting around the scary idea of love!
  27. Detroit Rock City
    It's an utterly fake nostalgia piece -- stupid and pandering, a bad-boy teen flick that plays less like a loving look at the late '70s than a terrible movie from the late '70s.
  28. Bedtime Stories
    It's a dispirited, galumphing mess.
  29. House of D
    An overly picaresque first feature written and directed by David Duchovny, who also co-stars.
  30. Welcome to Mooseport
    To a character, every man in this faux-homey burg has been castrated! They're all impotent buffoons!
