  1. Brother
    Kitano's most enjoyable, flat-out fun movie, provided you can stomach the violence.
  2. America's Sweethearts
    For the farce it so desperately wants to be, the film often feels slack and too reliant on so-so punch lines for laughs.
  3. Hedwig and the Angry Inch
    There's a lot more at work in this raucously entertaining movie than cross-dressing clichés.
  4. Ghost World
    A unique bond still develops between the two outcasts, leading to an unexpected resolution that ends this subtle, deeply humane movie on an ambiguous, but unmistakably hopeful, note.
  5. Jurassic Park III
    The whole enterprise sags and wheezes like the tired, we're-in-this-strictly-for-the-money sequel it really is.
  6. The Score
    If The Score isn't quite in the same league as the classic "Rififi" or even "Thief," its single-mindedness still makes for a refreshing change from the preposterous bloat of most contemporary action movies.
  7. Made
    Vaughn and Favreau are a dynamite pair, and there's enough give-and-take between them to satisfy any diehard "Swingers" fan.
  8. Legally Blonde
    Unashamedly sticks with its light comedy roots.

  9. Bully
    There's a terrible beauty to the work of Larry Clark, the controversial photographer turned filmmaker, that transcends chic nihilism.
  10. Kiss of the Dragon
    The Hollywood action genre, sliding into a lazy dependence on computer-generated fakery, needs this authentic kick to the head delivered by Jet Li.
  11. Lost and Delirious
    Lost and Delirious doesn't need metaphors for the power of strength and healing. All the passion and pain it needs glows ferociously in the eyes of its young women.
  12. Jump Tomorrow
    A quirky romantic comedy with a distinct and pleasing retro feel.
  13. Cats & Dogs
    Undeniably charming, and kids will certainly enjoy it.

  14. Scary Movie 2
    It's a formula and hard to describe as good in any artistic sense, but the viewers who pay to see it -- and many, many people are going to -- will get exactly what they want.
  15. Crazy/Beautiful
    Fast, wacky and bubbling with passion or dark, troubled and doomed. In the unusually titled crazy/beautiful, it's all those things at once.
  16. A.I. Artificial Intelligence
    This is speculative, heady stuff, far removed from traditional Hollywood summer entertainment, which alone will earn A.I. a devoted following.
  17. Lumumba
    The story is worth telling, one that begs the question: Has anything changed?
  18. Baby Boy
    Raunchy, provocative and often very funny.
  19. The Fast and the Furious
    Drowns in its own noxious fumes. Who knew being bad could be so dull?

  20. Dr. Dolittle 2
    Cleaner, cuter animal antics.
    • Miami Herald
  21. Life and Debt
    Often makes for a compelling comedy-drama about family ties. It's only when the cancer takes center stage that the movie feels like a wash.
  22. Russian Doll
    A breezy pleasure.
  23. The Adventures of Felix
    Although the movie never so much as flirts with melodrama, there is still a bittersweet undercurrent.
  24. Songcatcher
    It may not get top billing, but glorious music is the star of Songcatcher, an intriguing and often lovely film.
  25. Lara Croft: Tomb Raider
    The relevant question is: does it rock? And the answer, unfortunately, is no.
    • Miami Herald
  26. Sexy Beast
    It is a riveting and memorable performance and Kingsley finds subtlety in Logan where there doesn't seem to be any.
  27. Swordfish
    The liveliest and most engaging time killer to come out of Hollywood in a long while. It's junk, to be sure, but it is superbly made junk.

  28. The Anniversary Party
    If nothing else, the movie proves even the rich and famous make boring home videos.
    • Miami Herald
    • 52 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Atlantis: The Lost Empire
    A crackling good adventure, a visually sumptuous effort.
    • Miami Herald
  30. Bride of the Wind
    The music is of course majestic, blending well with a loving cinematography.
