  1. Punisher: War Zone
    Dominic West (The Wire) plays a facially mutilated Mob boss as if he's in a broad SNL sketch.

    Vampire's Kiss
    Playing a sleazeball who has stumbled upon an excellent excuse for his bent, Cage holds the movie together as best he can. More important, he nails down his unique approach to acting, managing to be simultaneously stylized and naturalistic. [7 June 1996, p.66]

  3. The Spirit
    As the vamps, Eva Mendes and Scarlett Johansson might be posing for a fashion spread with just one note to play -- gorgeous high-bitch mockery.
  4. Feeling Minnesota
    Feeling Minnesota suggests Sam Shepard trying to be Quentin Tarantino. It makes even gun battles seem pretentious.
  5. Saw VI
    The thinnest, draggiest, and most tediously preachy of the Saw films.
  6. Bulletproof
    Universal should have marketed this formulaic drivel as the taboo love story it really is, and then watched its stars run for cover.
  7. Over Her Dead Body
    Rudd's talents as a thinking woman's charmer are wasted -- as are those of amiable Jason Biggs in a weak variation on the pop theme of being a gal's gay best friend.
  8. The Babymakers
    This comedy about a couple who can't get pregnant is stuck between Judd Apatow's humane raunchiness and the American Pie series' smirky broadness.
  9. The Hangover Part III
    You should stick around for the end credits because there's a Helms sight gag that's absolutely priceless. The movie could've used more laughs like that one.
  10. The Pacifier
    A yawn-by-numbers romper-room dud.
  11. Love in the Time of Money
    The characters who cross paths here in the hard shadows of late-'90s New York City are meant to convey loneliness, bitterness, neediness, loss, and bad karma. Mostly, they convey bad Sundance.
  12. The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
    The movie is based on a 1999 series of comic books by Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill, but the original tone of deadpan historical audacity has been replaced by a kind of wax-museum literalness.
  13. Gods and Generals
    Bloodless and false.
  14. Oh My God
    The answers he strings together are babble in this superficial vanity documentary. Nice shots of awesome, God-approved scenery, though.
  15. Affluenza
    The generational conflict — overly ambitious parents and their disaffected millennial children — plays so on-the-nose it almost seems like satire, but it’s really just bad writing.
  16. The Boy Next Door
    Boy's premise reeks of stalker-movie mothballs, and it's too timid to fully dive into the high camp it hints at. Instead, this cookie just crumbles.
  17. The Art of War
    The dialogue is chintzy and rhythmless.
  18. Queen of the Damned
    Maybe in a few years the incoherent gaudiness of this underperforming sequel to ''Interview With A Vampire'' -- will have transmuted into a kind of appreciable camp. Until that time, however, we're stuck with this damned production
    • 30 Metascore
    • 42 Critic Score
    Waiting...
    With its sweet stupidity and shoddy production values, Waiting... knowingly evokes bad '80s R-rated comedies, but the differences are telling.
  20. White Noise
    What might have been a rote horror exercise becomes instead a twitchy, mannered, often amusing rote horror exercise.
  21. American Virgin
    This ''satire'' of triple-X raunch and ''Jerry Springer'' sleaze starts off at a pitch of preening dementia and just grows more hysterical from there.
  22. Exorcist: The Beginning
    The new movie is a dusty piñata stuffed with omens and not much more.
    • 30 Metascore
    • 25 Critic Score
    The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning
    Unlike "Hostel" or "Wolf Creek," TCM:B is rank and depressing.
  24. Marmaduke
    An afterthought of a plot ships the family from Kansas to the O.C., offering SoCal set pieces -- like a doggie surfing contest -- to spackle the few gaps between big-dog-small-world jokes.
  25. Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore
    No movie -- whether aimed at adults or kids or canines themselves -- has the right to be as tiresome and unoriginal as this action-comedy mutt.
  26. John Q
    The movie could have used a brain transplant. It doesn't explore injustice -- it just exploits it.
  27. Grown Ups
    For a while, the movie looks like "Couples Retreat" or a Tyler Perry house party, only instead of cookie-cutter conflicts, everyone just grows happier and more relaxed.
  28. The Unborn
    Indeed, Goyer has penned many scripts superior to this one (he co-wrote cult gem Dark City), but he does make sure you're never far away from a big "Boo!"
    • 30 Metascore
    • 25 Critic Score
    Stonewall
    There’s bad, and then there’s offensively bad.
  30. Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo
    Just when you're sure that Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo can't get any less funny, the movie douses the trailer's best gag, as that prosthetic leg turns out to be attached to Deuce's true love.
