  1. Light It Up
    As an actor, Raymond is whiny and annoying, but not nearly so much as the film.
  2. Pokémon: The First Movie - Mewtwo Strikes Back!
    A dismayingly impersonal piece of anime, genial yet chaotic.
  3. Portraits chinois
    A light romantic do-si-do.
  4. Rosetta
    Rosetta is a character of raw pride in a film of lingering power.
  5. The Bachelor
    The mood is ruined by the bitchy 1990s stereotyping of the husband hunters.
  6. Mein liebster Feind - Klaus Kinski
    Herzog's fascinating, rambling, love-hate documentary about their friendship and creative partnership, and in its discursive, anecdotal way it gets at the essence of one of cinema's indelible crackpots.
  7. American Movie
    A tacit auteur-to-auteur endorsement of the inalienable right to make movies--regardless of talent or sobriety or adult responsibilities--is what gives American Movie its uneasy kick.
  8. The Bone Collector
    A skeleton-thin thriller wrapped in glamorous production values.
  9. The Insider
    A good but far from great movie because it portrays truth telling in America as far more imperiled than it is.
  10. Last Night
    A surreal, elegantly melancholy, and yet witty ensemble story.
    • 24 Metascore

    The Suburbans
    By appearing in The Suburbans, a stunningly laugh-free comedy, (Jennifer Love Hewitt)'s already gotten her career-worst movie out of the way.
  12. Music of the Heart
    A sentimental epic that forgets to include the sentiment
  13. The Legend of 1900
    It's usually a good idea to avoid anything billed as ''a fable,'' but The Legend of 1900 offers almost enough merits to warrant an exception
    • 78 Metascore

    Princess Mononoke
    Has the effect of making the average Disney film look like just another toy story.
  15. Being John Malkovich
    The most excitingly original movie of the year.
  16. House on Haunted Hill
    Trash, but always just a little creepier than you expect.
  17. Man of the Century
    A premise masquerading as a movie.
  18. Dreaming of Joseph Lees
    Let loose in a plot that's surprisingly modern about sex and relationships, Morton gives Eva's torn longings an immediacy that transcends a lot of damp, 1950s rusticated preciousness.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    The Best Man
    It's a tribute to the actors' appeal that they can sling this hash and keep our sympathies, but they can't squeeze much drama from pure soap.
  20. Three to Tango
    I didn't think Matthew Perry could find a romantic comedy more inert or inane than the 1997 fiasco ''Fools Rush In.''
    • 23 Metascore
    • 42 Critic Score
    Bats
    The kind of rote schlocker that rarely makes it to big screens anymore.
  22. Body Shots
    A distasteful zeitgeist cocktail tracking the booze-fueled sexcapades of eight repellent L.A. singles.
  23. La Ciudad (The City)
    In their stark, black-and-white visual style, they are redolent of Italian neorealist cinema or fine muckraking WPA photojournalism.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 33 Critic Score
    Crazy in Alabama
    As campy as a flick by Banderas' evident artistic mentor, Pedro Almódovar.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 67 Reviewed by

    Bringing Out the Dead
    Works more in your head than on the screen.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 42 Critic Score
    That's the Way I Like It
    Cute, but there's no movie here -- just a transcultural replication.
  27. Julien Donkey-Boy
    Korine remains unnecessarily smitten with sordidness, and there's plenty of it here.
  28. The Story of Us
    Pungent, funny, and surprisingly forceful.
  29. The Source
    The rare case in which a filmmaker's unadulterated worship of his subjects adds force and resonance--and not just luster--to the way that we see them.
    • 14 Metascore
    • 16 Critic Score
    The Omega Code
    Even Christians hip to TBN preachers' peculiar eschatology may be baffled by the incoherent wrap-up, which provides the stingiest Second Coming since the third ''Omen ''movie.
