  1. 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.
  2. See Spot Run
    It's enough to encourage the aspiring film makers in the audience, no matter how wee in age, to yell "Cut!"
  3. The Gospel According to Philip K. Dick
    Both a fan's dream and a moviegoer's nightmare: It ends up being all about those who remember and interpret Philip K. Dick and not about the man himself.
  4. Hit and Runway
    Does have a sort of endearing, earnest charm. But it would take much more than good intentions to save a film that rehashes cliches and concepts so unabashedly.

  5. The Mexican
    Flails about desperately for a genre to call home.
  6. 3000 Miles to Graceland
    Showcased in 3,000 Miles are two of the longest, noisiest, bloodiest and most ludicrous shootouts ever staged.
  7. Monkeybone
    A shell of a romantic fantasy festooned with characters inspired by and resembling those in the bar scene in "Star Wars," the waiting room in "Beetlejuice" and the circus in "A Bug's Life."
  8. Last Resort
    A slice of life in the most profound sense.
  9. The Widow of Saint-Pierre
    It doesn't get much more romantic than this.
  10. Rhythm 'n' Bayous: A Road Map to Louisiana Music
    Unpolished and clearly made on a low budget, the results seem a little like a home video by someone who spent an especially cool summer vacation.
  11. Yom Yom
    Though the results are only moderately compelling, the film's problems stem not from a lack of ideological thrust, but rather from a protagonist who is so phenomenally unlikable.
  12. The Price of Milk
    A modern-day fable about love and commitment — it's different.

  13. Down to Earth
    It's Rock's first venture into leading-man territory, and the material is carefully tailored to his measurements. He's fully believable as a standup comic. How he'll fare as a character other than Chris Rock is yet to be determined.
  14. Company Man
    A painfully flat spoof of the 1961 Bay of Pigs invasion.
  15. Recess: School's Out
    Seems to have been made entirely for people who were kids during the Johnson administration.
  16. Sweet November
    A hellacious stew of romance and tragedy that gives the words "screwball" and "pathos" a bad name.
  17. The Taste of Others
    A charming little valentine to the mysteries of attraction.
  18. Journey to the Sun
    A remarkable second feature from writer-director Yesim Ustaoglu.
  19. Signs & Wonders
    The best performance is by Rampling. (The) camera hangs on her, knowing that nothing escapes those wise, sad-lidded eyes.
  20. Love, Honor and Obey
    It's never a good thing to notice that the actors in a movie are having a better time than you are. It's so unfair. They're paid to work, you're paying for fun.
  21. Saving Silverman
    Screenwriters look to many sources for inspiration. In the case of Saving Silverman, they looked behind them, and liked what they saw.
  22. Hannibal
    It's certainly not scary; it's not even suspenseful. The tension in Hannibal is purely sexual.
  23. In the Mood for Love
    A love story told from the point of impact, at the heart, and no conventional resolution could be more profound.
  24. Fever
    While this paranoid thriller is overly familiar, it's still plenty unsettling.
  25. The Invisible Circus
    Director and screenwriter Adam Brooks, adapting Jennifer Egan's novel, doesn't seem to understand what makes a movie relevant.
  26. Nico and Dani
    Director Gay deals so honestly with the boys' emotions, it's almost a revelation when compared to Hollywood fabrications.
  27. Left Behind
    With an appealing lead in Cameron, and a nicely brisk pace, there's a decent, midlevel Apocalypse movie here. But be aware that you will have to peel away several pages of the Bible to get to it.
  28. The Million Dollar Hotel
    Conceived by U2's Bono, it's not quite as bad as it might have been. After all, its own star, Mel Gibson, has famously called this tale of destitute misfits "as boring as a dog's a——."
  29. Valentine
    Lacking the requisite post-"Scream" irony, the film is simply a package of gougings, stabbings, drillings and guttings, all tied up with a "twist" ending that anyone with a still-functioning brain could figure out in a matter of minutes.
  30. Head Over Heels
    Thekind of misfire that makes you understand why every waiter, parking valet and sushi delivery boy in Beverly Hills has a screenplay under his waistband.
