  1. Gripping, made more intense by the knowledge that all is true.
  2. One of the most rewarding and engaging movies of the year. Don't miss it.
  3. It does boast loads of cool gadgetry and some impressive special effects. It's not much, but at least the movie always gives you something to look at.
  4. In an effort to turn Brashear's life into a larger-than-life sermon, Men of Honor almost manages to make it all feel like an overbearing crock.
  5. Deliciously confusing.
  6. Sweet but colossally dull relationship movie.

  7. The lack of cynicism is refreshing, but someone needed to tell Redford pixie dust and a nine-iron will only get you so far.
  8. Glover and especially Bassett give strong performances, shaking off their Hollywood patina and losing themselves in these gritty roles.
    • Miami Herald
  9. Shot mostly with a hand-held camera and in the gray hues you expect from the gruesome landscape, Kippur is highly sophisticated in its action scenes.
    • Miami Herald
  10. The most charming bad movie ever spun off a hit TV show.
    • Miami Herald
  11. Lucky Numbers is like stuff bought at an outlet mall. Sure, it's got the brand names and designer labels, but the color's a little strange, the style a little off, and nothing fits just right.
  12. A wrenching film.
  13. The movie is a little long for kids.
  14. If you're going to direct a piece of crass, nonsensical junk, at least have the decency to release it straight to video, where it belongs.
    • Miami Herald
  15. It's a cute and clever good-vs-evil parable.
    • Miami Herald
  16. The rapturous power of music has rarely been captured as purely and joyously as it is in Calle 54.
    • Miami Herald
  17. A mix of slapstick, melodrama and jaw-dropping stunts.
  18. The only thing the movie lacks is a pulse.
  19. Winds up making a very good case for never going out of your way to help anybody.
    • Miami Herald
  20. Gere has never been better cast.
    • Miami Herald
  21. Unsurprisingly, relentlessly awful.
  22. Compared to manipulative tearjerkers like "Pay It Forward" or "Men of Honor," Billy Elliot is a model of restraint, one that earns its warmth the hard way -- by making us care about the people who are going through familiar steps.
    • Miami Herald
  23. The characters are easy to overplay, but the ensemble keeps its feet on the ground.
  24. The most intriguing thing about Lost Souls is how it managed to attract so much talent.
  25. A brilliant film by Lynne Ramsay.
    • Miami Herald
  26. Heavy-handed and manipulative, it also proves formidably engrossing.
    • Miami Herald
  27. So impressive you welcome each and every one for the film's 48 minute duration.
    • Miami Herald
  28. Angry, potentially offensive movie.
    • Miami Herald
  29. Calling a comedy old-fashioned nowadays might seem like a backhanded compliment, but that's precisely what this genial, funny movie is.
  30. Easily the most searing movie-going experience of the year.
