  1. Son of Rambow
    Luckily, Son of Rambow, a comedy that's part kid-buddy flick, part valentine to filmmaking - and full of heart - has both.
  2. In Good Company
    An amusing and unusually compassionate look at today's corporate culture.
  3. The Phenom
    If there’s an MVP, it’s Simmons. “The Perks of Being a Wallflower” alum tosses off another subdued performance, a good counterpart to Hawke’s more over-the-top coiled rage.
  4. Game Over: Kasparov and the Machine
    Aside from conspiracy theories, Kasparov's undoing inspires a fascinating discourse on genius, competition, humanity and the ghost in the machine.
  5. Cop Car
    Despite the real, bloody stakes, Cop Car keeps a boyish sense of action and adventure through to a twist ending. You have a right to remain thrilled.
  6. La Nouvelle Ève
    Viard plays one of the most intriguing female characters in recent film from either side of the Atlantic.
  7. Chutney Popcorn
    Her story (Ganatra) -- and the rest of the gifted, multicultural cast that brings it to life -- represents another step in the evolving face of film.
  8. Much Ado About Something
    Barely qualifies as a documentary. It's the personal journey of a man hoping to claim a million-dollar literary prize by proving that Marlowe wrote Shakespeare.
  9. Last Dance
    The real highlight is watching the dancers as they progress from their first, tentative improvisations to the final, complex performance.
  10. Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines
    The effects in "T3" are spectacular, and the action sequences -- particularly the fights between the good and bad terminators -- are exhilarating.
  11. Shadow Magic
    A movie-movie about the movies.
  12. On the Outs
    What makes the film feel genuine, however, are the performances.
  13. Julie & Julia
    Streep is the most important ingredient in this recipe.
  14. Avengers: Age of Ultron
    Avengers: Age of Ultron is a kinetic, wicked mix of muscle and magic. Look no further if you want a world of superpowered freaks and geeks. But be aware: It comes at a cost. Vaporized in the parade of action and characters is the wonder and simplicity of its first, superior entry.
  15. Captain America: The First Avenger
    This muscular, red-blooded adventure has a decent heart and the stuff of Saturday afternoon serials running through its veins.
  16. Three... Extremes
    Blood, grotesquerie and humor mix equally in the first two, but the full combo makes a savory witches' brew for Asian-cinema cultists (or Halloween lovers in need of a gore fix).
  17. Born to Be Wild
    Narrator Morgan Freeman manages to be both soothing and somber, so it's not until the credits roll that we realize how much more we want to know.
  18. An Open Secret
    Most of the young men interviewed by Berg will be seen, and heard, by many audiences for the first time. Their voices are hard to forget.
  19. City Island
    The performances are absurdly broad, and each story line is more outlandish than the last. But De Felitta’s approach is so easygoing, and the waterside setting so irresistibly charming, you’re bound to walk out in a great mood. How many movies can do that for you?
  20. Something's Gotta Give
    It's hard to imagine anyone other than Keaton pulling this off.
  21. The Girlfriend Experience
    Nowhere near as kinky or thinky as Soderbergh’s "sex, lies and videotape," Girlfriend pretends it has more on its mind than it really does.
  22. Sausage Party
    There are a few points where Rogen and company go way too far, but even in those cases, you may find yourself trying hard not to laugh and failing miserably.
  23. Shin Godzilla (Godzilla Resurgence)
    Despite the movie's darker tone, there's still room for humor when you have rooms full of diplomats and scientists discussing how to contend with a "giant unidentified creature."
  24. Diary of the Dead
    There are a few clever moments, as when an Amish farmer saves the tech-savvy students. But mostly, we're in it for the gore.
  25. Yossi
    You'll want to see Eytan Fox's acclaimed 2002 drama "Yossi & Jagger" before watching this intimate, often-moving sequel.
  26. Alan Partridge
    So clear your calendar. There’s no better time to get to know a character so obnoxiously stubborn that not even his own creator can shake him.
  27. Innocent Voices
    The many riveting moments will stay with you for days, and Padilla is well up to the task of carrying this intense story on his tiny shoulders.
  28. Me You Them
    The most extraordinary thing about Me You Them is that no one behaves as though anything remotely out of the ordinary is going on.
  29. Stuart Little 2
    Nearly scrapes the bottom of the cracker barrel in search of suspense, now that the humans accept the polite mouse as one of their own.
  30. Bolivia
    Turns the dangerous monotony of poverty and unemployment into something nearly hypnotic.
