  1. Serendipity
    The lightweight bauble is perfect entertainment for now.
  2. Napoleon Dynamite
    With the exception of one truly glorious dance solo, the movie treats its hero - and his equally uncool family - with undisguised disdain.
  3. Gay Sex in the 70s
    Lovett's history is heavy on hedonism, but he does deliver a succinct perspective on this celebratory era - between the sad bookends of repression and loss.
  4. Red Doors
    There's enough affection and insight here to make Lee's next movie worth watching for.
  5. Mambo italiano
    So desperately eager to please: Gaudreault doesn't offer much in the way of wit or originality, but he's determined to win us over with sheer enthusiasm.
  6. El leyton
    Given the subject matter, the movie is almost fatally lacking in passion.
  7. Facing Windows
    Ozpetek moves things along at a snail's pace and lays the sentiment down thickly. But it's a potent tale, wonderfully acted by Mezzogiorno and Massimo Girotti as the old man.
  8. CQ
    May have more enthusiasm and attitude than good story sense, but it, too, is the work of someone who might be at this game for a long time.

  9. eXistenZ
    David Cronenberg is one of the most intellectual film makers around.

  10. Inside Deep Throat
    Beautifully assembled and edited by Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato ("The Eyes of Tammy Faye") and is often very funny.
  11. An American Haunting
    There are jolts galore in a movie stuffed with the basic tricks of the evil-spirit trade - banging noises in the attic, slamming doors and windows, spinning clocks, shaking beds, rabid beasts, disappearing children and the occasional moment of eyeball-rolling possession.
  12. Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters
    There's nothing here for kids, or, for that matter, anyone who claims to be an adult. But if the title makes perfect sense to you, the movie probably will, too.
  13. Price of Glory
    Fathers and sons with problems expressing their feelings makes for a story that is universal, and that has also been done to death. Thankfully, the boxing scenes are extensive and pack the appropriate punch.
  14. Southpaw
    Less a complete story than a work-in-progress.
  15. Amélie
    Whether you're charmed or bored by the movie depends entirely on your feelings for Amelie, a young woman whose hyper-quirky personality both takes some getting used to and grows old fast.
  16. A Good Baby
    This intelligently acted and well-paced story avoids most of the clichés.
  17. Pie in the Sky: The Brigid Berlin Story
    Doesn't probe quite as deeply as it should.
  18. Slipstream
    Writer, director and star Anthony Hopkins releases his inner muse with Slipstream, and guess who shows up - David Lynch!
  19. The Eye
    It's unabashedly derivative and spooky enough to keep you up at night.
  20. The Jacket
    Adrien Brody is cornering the market on roles where he's hunted, haunted and under-nourished.
  21. Cradle Will Rock
    A missed opportunity to shed light on one of America's most turbulent times.
  22. Primer
    One of those purposely head-scratching films meant to be viewed more than once. The extra ticket sales should easily cover Carruth's initial $7,000 budget.
  23. Fade to Black
    A loving tribute to one of the most important figures in hip hop. From Jay-Z to himself.
  24. Evan Almighty
    Carell and Freeman are great together and Wanda Sykes' acerbic humor is perfect for her role as Evan's perplexed assistant.
  25. Head-On
    Unremittingly explosive, Head-On is not an easy film to watch. It is, however, a memorable one.
  26. Cléo from 5 to 7
    If French film makers would consider the story they have to tell as paramount to the technique of telling it, I'm sure they would interest a wider audience than they do now. [05 Sep 1962, p.37]

  27. Camp
    There's humor and expected back-story pathos.
  28. Catch That Kid
    A passable, but entirely uninspired "Spy Kids" wanna-be.
  29. My Wife Is an Actress
    Although the movie is not as hilarious as you'd hope from the screwball setup, Gainsbourg and Attal make a solid comedy team.
    • New York Daily News
  30. Bicentennial Man
    A fragmented, episodic feel and a conclusion that seems both remote and remote-controlled.
