  1. Shower
    Intimate, deeply affecting family drama.
  2. But I'm a Cheerleader
    Amusing and good-natured, but necessarily thin.
  3. Scary Movie
    The jokes are wild, raunchy, surreal and dead-on.
  4. The Perfect Storm
    Petersen's speculative reenactment makes for gripping summer entertainment -- if you don't mind a little corn floating in your brine.
  5. Trixie
    Trixie has "cult favorite" written all over it. That is to say, the general public is likely to say ixnay.
  6. The Patriot
    Far from the smart historical epic some might have expected, is just another feisty summer shoot-'em-up.
  7. Praise
    Unrelentingly, admirably committed to its own grimness.
  8. Me, Myself & Irene
    Carrey's performance is a tour de force of physical mime.
  9. Boricua's Bond
    If you haven't had enough of the Central Park rampage videos showing human nature at its worst, you could always pay to see Boricua's Bond.

    Chicken Run
    Funny, even thrilling.
  11. Titan A.E.
    The real star of the movie is the background work.
  12. Shaft
    Violent, cool and street-smart, Shaft supplies everything you want in a summer movie.
  13. Jesus' Son
    Movies about junkies are often brutal to watch, but Jesus' Son has such a light touch, you have little to fear. Little to gain, too.
  14. Marcel Proust's Time Regained
    A long sit for those unfamiliar with Proust's literary quest and output, but the view is sensational.
  15. The Woman Chaser
    An only intermittently amusing genre parody.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Humanité
    Under that small but growing category of movies that break the mold but that no one but a masochist could sit through is Humanité.
  17. Boys and Girls
    Stays firmly, depressingly, inside the lines.
  18. Groove
    If you're a rave virgin, it'll more likely make you feel like the guest nobody invited. And why would you pay nine bucks for that?
  19. Sunshine
    The saga might have worked better as a novel, where we could cast the characters with our imaginations, and keep them straight.
  20. Love's Labour's Lost
    The leaden bits do bring the proceedings to a screeching halt too many times, but the costumes are breathtaking, and the details (like color-coordinated martinis) are dazzling.
  21. American Pimp
    Genuinely entertaining and, thanks to a well of self-deluded quotes from the men, shockingly funny.
  22. Gone in Sixty Seconds
    A mindless, cliche-riddled action-cartoon, a blur of metal and fire and screeching tires, with bad dialogue, cardboard characters and a volume set so high, it makes the Indianapolis 500 sound like chamber music.
  23. Big Momma's House
    Big Momma's got game, but she doesn't have much else.
  24. Shanghai Noon
    A silly buddy caper that should delight the adolescent at heart, even if some of the jokes have been sitting too long in the desert sun.
  25. Passion of Mind
    Leaves the viewer exhausted, jet-lagged from the effort of investing equally in competing story lines.
  26. Kikujirô no natsu
    When Kikijuro goes soft, the film falls apart, with him becoming a slapstick clown, mugging shamelessly to entertain Masao and the audience.
  27. Mission: Impossible II
    There's solid chemistry between Cruise and the stunning Newton, a superb actress previously restricted to such ethnic roles as Sally Hemings in "Jefferson in Paris" and the title role in "Beloved."
  28. Dinosaur
    For sheer bravura film making, for creating a cartoon world with real air, flesh, blood and the exhilarating cycle of fear and escape, Dinosaur is tops.
  29. Luminous Motion
    An ambitious film that sticks with you long after you have left the theater -- because of both what it achieves and what it does not.
  30. Small Time Crooks
    Allen was out of his element in creating characters who feel like East Coast cousins of the Clampetts, and his dialogue has never been more banal or forced.
