  1. You Can Count on Me
    It's a compassionate story about what makes people tick and what really matters.
  2. Le Cercle Rouge (1970)
    If you've got the patience, this is still one of the all-time exercises in cinematic cool.
  3. Monsieur Ibrahim
    Omar Sharif certainly doesn't disappoint in Monsieur Ibrahim. The casting alone promises something extraordinary.
  4. Finding Neverland
    Delightful and moving - although fanciful.
  5. Mission to Mars
    Earthlings beware: The dialogue and characters have less weight than bodies freed from gravity's grip.
  6. Naqoyqatsi
    Images wash over you like wind-blown rain, fierce and beautiful at the same time, largely shaped into themes by the haunting music of Philip Glass, who is here joined by cellist Yo-Yo Ma.
  7. Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie
    In a movie theater, at least, there are other people to hear you laugh, and the film of MST3K already seems a more communal, less onanistic experience.
  8. Last Orders
    It is remarkably, unsentimentally dramatized by Fred Schepisi, courtesy of the pitch-perfect performances of its ensemble British cast.

  9. Boiler Room
    Energetic, provocative.
  10. King of California
    Cahill deserves major credit for keeping the story from becoming mawkish or twee. He was also wise enough to realize it's Douglas' show, and as soon as he steps into the frame, you'll know it, too.
  11. Pauline and Paulette
    Plumbs the issue of sibling love and family responsibility in quietly powerful ways, and the performances of the two stars surpass convincing to reach a level of biographical realism.
    • New York Daily News
  12. Titanic Town
    She (Walters) may be working with old news, but she shores up this shaky film with a heart the size of an ocean liner.
  13. The World's Fastest Indian
    Whether he'll achieve his goal of setting the world land-speed record for motorcycles is never in doubt, of course, but getting to a film's climactic scene has rarely been more fun.
  14. In the Bedroom
    It's a human drama, drawn in such careful emotional detail, its two acts of violence -- one shown, one not -- are almost incidental.
    • New York Daily News
  15. Hollywood Ending
    A bouquet of snappy one-liners and disarming nuttiness.

  16. Dear Frankie
    It is a sweet, wonderfully acted cameo of a movie about the lengths to which a lioness will go to protect her cub.
  17. Herbie Fully Loaded
    Just like the can-do VW Beetle of the title, Herbie: Fully Loaded succeeds adorably despite the obstacles in its path.
  18. Last Holiday
    It's too bad there's so little of LL Cool J as the secret object of Georgia's fantasies. He'd make a funny, nimble, sexy romantic lead with just a bit more screen time.
  19. My Super Ex-Girlfriend
    As cool a summer lark as you'll find.
  20. America's Sweethearts
    The result is a back-lot studio tour that's not exactly good-natured, but terrific fun and it gives the ensemble cast plenty of clowning opportunities.
  21. Catch a Fire
    The movie belongs to Luke, who brings the heroic Chamusso to life as richly as Forest Whitaker does the evil Ugandan dictator Idi Amin in "The Last King of Scotland."
  22. Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter... and Spring
    Where Kim's best-known movie, "The Isle," was a stomach-churner, this beautifully composed canvas is the sort of film one falls into, resurfacing at the end with great reluctance.
  23. Stick It
    Peregrym's performance as fiery, troubled teen Haley Graham is a triumph of charisma over technique.
  24. Bridge to Terabithia
    Csupo needed two very gifted leads to do this beloved story justice, and found them in AnnaSophia Robb and Josh Hutcherson.
  25. The Holy Land
    Masterly coming-of-age drama.
  26. Winter Solstice
    Very little actually happens in the movie. There are no cathartic breakdowns or soul-changing epiphanies. Instead, we're offered a collection of small moments that feel so familiar, they remind us how false most films really are.
  27. The Guru
    The first pleasant surprise of 2003, a cross-cultural romantic comedy that doesn't stint on romance or comedy, and- - when you least expect and most need it- - throws in some jaunty musical numbers of its own.
  28. Strike
    The dubbing from German to Polish is off-putting, but it is Schlondorff's best film since his classic "The Tin Drum."
  29. Chicago 10
    A provocative reflection of its rule-breaking subjects, Brett Morgen's political documentary re-examines the past while drawing unmissable parallels to the present.
  30. Twin Falls Idaho
    Has the gentlest feel of any movie I can remember.
