  1. With no climactic showdown and no comforting revelation of motive or reassuring psychoanalytic diagnosis, the nerve-rattling potential of this sly, paranoia-inducing story may sink in only later.
  2. Even blood, spilled so freely, has a distinctive intensity of red in this beautiful and harrowing film.
  3. You may roll your eyes a bit at the glib, transparent, indie-grunge romanticism.
  4. Rancid, misogynist comedy.
  5. A crude, silly supernatural thriller.
  6. An inept low-budget thriller.
  7. A warm embrace of tradition and boisterous, ethnographically rich local culture.
  8. Just... bad. As in BAD bad.
  9. Where the movie falters is in sustaining the tricky balance between pastoral life lessons and creepy suspense.
  10. This unexceptional 1970s coming-of-age story is neither outrageous, new, nor comedic.
  11. God-awful?Gooding screams out lines like ''I'm about to get in yo' ass like last year's underwear!''
  12. An embarrassment--a fairy-tale showbiz satire that seems to defang itself, scene by scene.
  13. Nothing but mood... it simply has too few surprises to justify its indulgent atmosphere of malignant revelation.
  14. Features the dullest, least lifelike collection of pals this side of "Eyes Wide Shut."

  15. If you've been longing to see the worst family entertainment of 1966, A Dog of Flanders may be the movie for you.
  16. The most unexpectedly audacious, exhilarating, wildly creative adventure thriller I've seen in ages.
  17. The balance of inspired idiocy to hackneyed buffoonery is out of whack.
  18. A weakly scripted shambles.
  19. Never lets Grant develop his pidgin-Italian nice-guy-gone-sociopath routine.
  20. A derisively vicious show-off satire, a plastic exercise in authority bashing.
  21. Jean-Claude Van Damme's latest dud.

    It's strangely enjoyable to see her(Danes) and Beckinsale busted on a bogus heroin-smuggling rap and thrown in the slammer with bad 'dos and no makeup.
  22. Disciplined script -- bitingly funny.
  23. It's an utterly fake nostalgia piece -- stupid and pandering, a bad-boy teen flick that plays less like a loving look at the late '70s than a terrible movie from the late '70s.
  24. Rohmer treasures the undervalued glories of discourse and the intimacy of conversation over the obviousness of action or sexual display.
  25. This hip send-up of the superhero lifestyle has a bunch of great comic bits from a group of great, eccentric talents, but not enough bourgeois discipline to see the story through.
  26. A romp of romantic larceny built out of spare parts we've seen in countless other films.
  27. Three stories by the guy who wrote Trainspotting, banged and smashed into a film by Paul McGuigan with none of Trainspotting's charm and all its grotesquerie.
  28. The production feels self-congratulatory and illuminated only dimly.
  29. At times, The Iron Giant is more serene than it needs to be, but it's a lovely and touching daydream.
