  1. Crank: High Voltage
    The result, an eye-popping strobe of flesh and blood, is as visually stunning as it is absurdly offensive, sure to thrill some while leaving others in a state of outrage-induced catatonia.
  2. The Soloist
    It's all a bit shapeless, yet made with sincerity and taste, and the two actors seize your sympathy.
  3. Dance Flick
    Enjoyably dirty-minded sendup of when-ballet-met-hip-hop youth musicals.
  4. Dead Snow
    Cheery, silly, splattery, and respectful of its elders (and betters, particularly Sam Raimi's "The Evil Dead").
  5. The Stoning of Soraya M.
    The Stoning of Soraya M.'s drawn-out torture sequence is harrowing and lurid.
  6. Soul Power
    What's infectious in Soul Power is the almost shocking optimism of its America-meets-Africa '70s world-beat vibe.
  7. Bandslam
    Misfit teens in the process of forming a high school band learn life lessons and raise their goblets of rock. But there's enough of a strong filmmaking backbeat in Bandslam to carry the movie's light tune.
  8. Fifty Dead Men Walking
    Jim Sturgess (Across the Universe) makes a believable cocky lad who signs on for the con; an oddly bewigged Ben Kingsley is fussier and too actorly as his handler.
  9. Disgrace
    Newcomer Jessica Haines is transparent and heartbreaking as the prof's unorthodox daughter, a victim of violence as the old ways crumble.
  10. Capitalism: A Love Story
    At its best, Capitalism: A Love Story is a searing outcry against the excesses of a cutthroat time. At its worst, it's dorm-room Marxism.
  11. Ong Bak 2
    Jaa, mesmerizing as ever to behold with his pinwheel moves, also (co)directs for the first time.
  12. The Wedding Song
    Has a sensuous, intimate filmmaking style that overrides The Wedding Song's more precariously loaded plot parallels.
  13. The Karate Kid
    Fun, and believable, on the most important level: It convinces us that Jaden Smith has what it takes to fight his way to the top.
  14. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
    The film makes excellent use of the cold Scandinavian landscape to emphasize the story's gloomy loneliness. And Rapace and ? Nyqvist have compelling chemistry.
  15. Hot Tub Time Machine
    With sharp riffs on the intersection of '80s pop culture (ALF, Kid 'N Play, Ronald Reagan!) and 21st-century culture (Twitter, Viagra, Second Life!), this Time Machine is a fun dip into a pool of memories that are best forgotten again once the booze wears off.
  16. Frequency
    May be the first time travel fantasy to move grown fellows with 401(k) accounts to tears.
  17. Cradle Will Rock
    Robbins the agitprop celebrity may be blowin' in the wind, but Robbins, the son of a folksinger, knows how to get audiences clapping along.
  18. Biker Boyz
    A blatant re-spin of ''The Fast and the Furious'' that also happens to be a far better movie.
  19. Down to Earth
    When Rock finds his authentic swing as an actor as well as a comedian, he'll be, like, a movie god.
  20. How to Kill Your Neighbor's Dog
    Branagh shows us the comedy of a man who is too clever to understand that in the guise of dreading fatherhood, he is really at war with how much he longs for it.
  21. Pollock
    For all the praise that has been heaped upon it, is a quasisatisfying, half realized vision.
  22. Once in the Life
    Showcases a trio of terrific performances.
  23. Boesman and Lena
    About two people on a stage, talking their way into and out of alienation.
  24. Portraits chinois
    A light romantic do-si-do.
  25. Restaurant
    Tom Cudworth's script nails the ale-drenched details of twentysomething existence.
  26. Pola X
    There's only one Carax, uncompromisingly ambiguous.
  27. Better Living Through Circuitry
    It's got a good beat, you can dance to it.
  28. The Emperor's New Clothes
    It's a royal, finely modulated double performance by an actor who always wears his powers with graceful modesty.
  29. Lovely & Amazing
    This trio is like a looser, funnier version of the family of wrecks in Woody Allen's ''Interiors.''
  30. Lan Yu
    At times too restrained, yet there are moments it captures the erotics of intimacy in a way that makes most American love stories look downright unfree.
