  1. Jawbreaker
    A synthetic yet shrill sadomasochistic cartoon.
  2. The Pyramid
    If you're looking for cheap scares and have 90 minutes to kill, you could do worse than The Pyramid. But not a lot worse.
  3. Dirty Work
    Norm Macdonald proves himself to be the new Chevy Chase by following up his ”Weekend Update” stint with Dirty Work, a smug, unfunny feature flop.
  4. One Missed Call
    This garbled American remake of Takashi Miike's already staticky 2004 exercise in J-horror is a wrong number.
  5. Captivity
    Roland Joffé brings an artful video-grunge look, and not much else, to this "Saw" clone.
  6. Juwanna Mann
    As anyone who has peered in on the actual WNBA for five minutes knows, professional women basketball players are as tough as men. That the film treats this as a joke isn't funny -- it's the height of lame condescension.
  7. Universal Soldier: The Return
    Jean-Claude Van Damme's latest dud.
  8. See Spot Run
    Personally, I'd say that it was about time Arquette was leashed.
  9. Kazaam
    It takes the movie all of 15 minutes to descend into sub-Spielbergian banalities about poor Max's search for his absentee dad.
  10. Holmes & Watson
    A brilliant supporting cast, which includes Hugh Laurie, Steve Coogan, Ralph Fiennes, Lauren Lapkus, Rebecca Hall, and Kelly MacDonald, is utterly wasted on this lame and forgettable outing. The only real mystery is why they wanted to be apart of this project at all.
  11. Speed 2: Cruise Control
    Yet Speed 2 is as slow-moving as a garbage scow. Those blinking lights might as well be emanating from a vital-signs monitor. The story is dead in the water.

    Stay Alive
    Videogames are no longer brainless, so why are videogame movies so slow to evolve?
  13. Godsend
    The umpteenth recycled shocker about a mystical dark child with an aura of disaster.
  14. Hollow Man
    An eminently watchable B-movie nightmare.
  15. Saw 3D
    Now that the series is, it can be said that the most disturbing thing about the Saw films is the way that they turn torture into a wink of megaplex vengeance. They're made, and consumed, as a big bloody joke, and that's scary.
  16. The Love Guru
    Myers is trying for another of his endearingly hormonal imp-egomaniacs, but hidden behind a wavy beard, a wax-curled mustache, and an astoundingly ugly squashed fake nose, he's a little too grotesque.
  17. The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day
    Earns points only for being remarkably unself-conscious about its across-the-board ineptitude.
  18. Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked
    Good news: The shrill CG rodents, who last infested theaters in 2009's Squeakquel, are stranded on a jungle island with little hope of survival. Bad news: They've brought us along.
  19. Doogal
    An animated movie designed with very young children in mind. And very young children should be very angry about that. Where is it written that 4-year-olds don't deserve a good story, decent characters, and a modicum of coherence?
  20. Furry Vengeance
    Still, it's refreshing that the animals don't talk.
  21. Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo
    While sloppier than the sloppiest of seconds, is laudable in one important regard: Its obsession with the male body.
  22. Collateral Beauty
    These actors are too good to be entirely sunk by the sheer silliness of the material (with the exception of Smith, who seems fully committed to playing the role of a human frown-face emoji).
  23. The Snowman
    The Snowman is completely bereft of either style or emotion.
  24. Jack and Jill
    In one form or another, you get exactly what you pay for at an Adam Sandler comedy. Otherwise the man wouldn't have earned zillions.
  25. Couples Retreat
    Thanks to Vaughn, Favreau, and the stray sharp lines that pop out of everyone else, the film at least offers the lively sound of egos that still know how to swing.
    • 23 Metascore
    • 42 Critic Score
    Bats
    The kind of rote schlocker that rarely makes it to big screens anymore.
  27. My Baby's Daddy
    A fairly harmless fertility rite with a skewed if not downright ugly view of women.
  28. Ready to Rumble
    It just makes you want to flip on the tube to see the real (fake) thing.
  29. Formula 51
    The film should have been called ''Lock, Stock and Two Wilting Barrels.''
    • 23 Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    The Condemned
    "Battle Royale," if you've never seen it, is a fantastically sadistic and unapologetically brutal Japanese film from 2000 about miscreants dropped on a jungle island with orders to kill each other for a reality TV show. The Condemned is pretty much the same thing with half the satirical wit and twice the number of wrestlers.
