    Nothing But the Truth
    It is a rock-solid entertainment, made by adults, starring adults, and intended for adults.
  2. Aviva
    Aviva is a palindrome, reflecting the film’s ouroboros-like narrative. It’s also a Hebrew name, which translates as “spring-like” or “fresh”–both adjectives applicable to the sensual and passionate Aviva. Love it or hate it, it’s… well, it’s art. I loved it, warts and all. Perhaps Yakin has finally discovered his style.

    The Dinner Game
    Easily the funniest and most charming film that has been or will be released in 1999 -- period.
  4. Cape of Good Hope
    A heartwarming, cleansing film that's simply good for the soul.
  5. Casanova
    A delightfully silly romp which reinvents the legendary Italian lover's adventures into the realm of broad farce.

    Over the Hedge
    Aside from having some great animation, the writing is funny and clever.

    Bathtubs Over Broadway
    You’re definitely going to laugh and laugh out loud. Young has several hilarious moments with his subjects, and the absurdity of these musicals and songs create an endless stream of silly giggles.

    LOL
    For non-actors, everyone in this film really pulls their character off extremely well.
  9. The Dancer Upstairs
    The movie does an admirable job of juggling political, dramatic and comic elements.
  10. Amrum
    The film works so well because of the development and portrayal of Nanning. He’s such a compelling character, slowly uncovering his family’s moral failings as the film progresses. He displays an inherent empathy for the world around him.

    Predator
    Predator is a classic action/sci-fi film, albeit a dated action/sci-fi film.

    Los Lobos
    Los Lobos is like a short diary of less-privileged immigrants. Though the settings and characters are from a specific geographical and ethnic origin, the issues addressed by the filmmaker are prevalent, experienced by millions of immigrants all over the world. This universal appeal and incredible acting make the drama an absorbing watch.
  13. A Tale of Two Sisters
    No hack job. It has more impact than your Rings, Grudges, Eyes, Dark Waters…out there and it does it with a minimum of actual on-screen scares. Finally, a real filmmaker gives it like it should be given...and it hurts so good.
  14. Barron's Cove
    It’s rare that something as formulaic as an action thriller could be so moving.
  15. Happy Holidays
    The story of Happy Holidays starts out fragmented, so it’s a bit disorienting. But when the puzzle comes together, it clicks in a satisfying way.

    Quinceañera
    A pretty great little movie.
  17. The Planters
    While the more dramatic side of The Planters does not totally gel, when the movie works, it is a slice of delightfully idiosyncratic comedic genius. The cast is terrific, the screenplay is amusing, and the whole affair is immensely rewatchable.
  18. No Man's Land
    While the audience has its laughs along the way, the violent tension of war often threatens to erupt, and slowly, subtly gathering force is the film's emotional weight, which is potently felt by the film's indelible (if not exactly unexpected) concluding image.
  19. Legally Blonde 2: Red, White & Blonde
    Has an underlying charm that drags its audience, kicking and screaming to have a good time.
  20. Skin: A History of Nudity in the Movies
    If you are interested in the history of cinema, this is a very unique lens to look at it through.
  21. Tuner
    What Daniel Roher has done with well-worn forms is to use them as setups, but put them together with a twist in a way that seems fresh and exciting.
  22. Mutual Appreciation
    Authentic and hilarious. This film sparks with a natural comic rhythm.
  23. Everything Went Fine
    No stranger to eliciting powerful performances from his entire cast, Ozon does it again here, with nary a foot stepped wrong.

    Together Together
    I love Together Together because it’s a sweet and straightforward story surrounding surrogacy. It’s void of Hollywood dramatics and firmly places Ed Helms into that older best friend category on screen.

    Wardriver
    The whole thing is perfectly cast.
  26. Jakob's Wife
    While there are some serious themes at play, the movie still has plenty of gooey gory fun for horror fans.
  27. Romy and Michele's High School Reunion
    Garofalo is amazing, as always, and the film is almost about her as much as the leads. The recreation of the casts' high school years is wickedly funny and dead on.
  28. Intoxicating
    While Intoxicating is far from a perfect film, it is nonetheless a highly effective -- and affecting -- clash of two fiercely independent talents, Kirk Harris and Mark David.
  29. Benjamin
    The story is feather-light, but the pain, either felt or indirectly caused by Benjamin, can be harrowingly authentic. We want to simultaneously hug him for reassurance and physically restrain him to keep from the next nerve-induced verbal volcano.
  30. Whirlybird
    To both the filmmaker and subject’s credit, neither feel that the transition to Zoey should excuse past behavior, and the director lets her sit with her thoughts. She processes her actions in front of the camera as she surveys the wreckage of her life. This is what makes Whirlybird such a wholly unique story, ultimately resonating as a portrait of a deeply flawed person.
