  1. Antz
    Sophisticated, funny, and joyously subversive animated bug epic.
  2. Toy Story 2
    It's a great, IQ-flattering entertainment both wonderful and wise.
  3. Toy Story
    The first animated feature produced entirely on computer is a magically witty and humane entertainment, a hellzapoppin fairy tale about a roomful of suburban toys who come to life when humans aren't around.
  4. The Godfather: Part III
    In this brilliantly sustained climax, Coppola unveils a vision of corruption that embraces the entire world, but he's also reveling in sheer theatrical magic in a way that only a master can.
  5. Moolaadé
    The result: This great work of art has the potential to change the world.
  6. Lilya 4-Ever
    A haunting and incandescent work of art.
  7. Gods and Monsters
    Achieves its exquisite tension--deepening beautifully from a "Death in Venice" setup to an imaginative meditation, on art and life, of uncommon sensitivity.
  8. Wet Hot American Summer
    The movie is so hilariously sly about something so fetishistically trivial that at times it appears to take in an entire culture through a lens made of cheese.
  9. Talk to Her
    Like everything else in this superb work of art, ''Shrinking Lover'' is exquisitely Almodóvarian. It's funny, tender, a little shocking, and it pays homage to what we know about movies: that they can move us beyond words.
  10. All About My Mother
    Almodóvar's masterwork, is a spectacular synthesis of everything that has always interested him -- proud women, lovely boys, beautiful drag queens, grand movie stars, gorgeous frocks, wild wallpaper .

    A Room with a View
    A movie with exquisite period detail. [8 Apr 1994]
    • Entertainment Weekly
  12. Guerrilla: The Taking of Patty Hearst
    A gripping documentary that uses voluminous period evidence — unedited news footage, tape recordings of SLA leader Cinque's rants — to brilliantly reconstruct the entire freak event.

    Princess Mononoke
    Has the effect of making the average Disney film look like just another toy story.

    Reservoir Dogs
    You may not like the terms Tarantino sets, but you have to admit he succeeds on them.
  15. Capturing the Friedmans
    An extraordinary film; it may be the most haunting documentary since ''Crumb.''

    Jaws
    Steven Spielberg overcame the lumpy plotting of Peter Benchley's novel to create an efficient, graceful fright machine in Jaws.
  17. Malcolm X
    With Malcolm X, Lee has created a galvanizing political tragedy, the story of a leader who, through his very perception and daring, recognized that death — and only death — would be his final evolution.

    Pulp Fiction
    [Tarantino's] ability to take what seem like minor conversational themes and dovetail them onto later exchanges for maximum comic effect is close to genius. And the action can be literally heart-stopping.
  19. Super Size Me
    A deliciously amusing socio-culinary prank.
  20. Titanic
    Titanic floods you with elemental passion in a way that invites comparison with the original movie spectacles of D.W. Griffith.
  21. Schindler's List
    Spielberg restages the Holocaust with an existential vividness unprecedented in any nondocumentary film: He makes us feel as if we're living right inside the 20th century's darkest-and most defining-episode.
  22. The Truman Show
    A beautifully sinister and transfixing entertainment-age daydream.
  23. Beau Travail
    (Denis's) visual style is hypnotic, rapturous, and she makes barren landscapes look gorgeous, hard men look vulnerable.

    Brazil
    One of those rare gems that prove equally stunning on both aesthetic and cerebral levels.
    • Entertainment Weekly
  25. Breaking the Waves
    True art is a journey to somewhere you've never been, and there has never been a movie quite like Breaking the Waves.
  26. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
    Soaring and romantic, wild and serene, feminist and gutsy, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is one of the best movies of the year.
  27. Ed Wood
    A comedy of the ridiculous in which the ridiculous turns unexpectedly sublime.
  28. Rushmore
    Murray, meanwhile, turns in a thrillingly knowing, unforced performance--an award-worthy high point in a career that continues, Max Fischer style, to defy the obvious at every turn.
  29. Dawn of the Dead
    Don't leave before the final frame -- if you're still breathing.
  30. Lost in Translation
    What's astonishing about Sofia Coppola's enthralling new movie is the precision, maturity, and originality with which the confident young writer-director communicates so clearly in a cinematic language all her own.
