  1. Whatever Works
    While the film is slightly better than similar efforts Allen made between the ’90s and his recent time in Europe, it’s both too broad and too shallow.
  2. The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3
    A fast and relentless hostage thriller that never stops.
  3. Food, Inc.
    Though slickly packaged, Robert Kenner's unsparing exposé is harder to watch than any horror film.
  4. Imagine That
    For the first time since "The Nutty Professor," Eddie Murphy successfully mixes his adult and kid-film personas -- imagine that.
  5. Sex Positive
    Intermittently compelling biography.
  6. Youssou Ndour: I Bring What I Love
    Though we see the same man throughout the bumpy tour captured here -- always calm, steady, faithful -- it's bound to prove an enlightening portrait for those who know him only as the guy who once worked with Peter Gabriel.
  7. Tetro
    Despite the overwrought plot and unabashed pretension, there's something admirable about the fact that Coppola clearly made this movie for himself. But he shouldn't be surprised if few others join him in watching it.
  8. The Hangover
    Amusing as it is, it never feels real.
  9. My Life in Ruins
    Director Donald Petrie doesn’t have much to brag about here, but at least he gives us some nice scenery to look at.
  10. Away We Go
    If we learn anything from Away We Go, it’s that a lack of ambition might not be such a bad thing after all.
  11. Land of the Lost
    This lumbering, ha-ha-look-what-we-remade action-comedy is a high-concept disaster.
  12. Downloading Nancy
    Unpleasantly icy film based on a true story.
  13. Tennessee
    The good news for Carey is that she gets to prove she's a pretty decent actress after all. The bad news, of course, is that she's done it in a movie no one has any other reason to see.
  14. Herb & Dorothy
    Director Megumi Sasaki's film feels like a cozy visit with neighbors whose insights are priceless.
  15. Up
    While their latest achievement can't quite one-up "WALL-E," it offers soaring highs that are bound to enchant viewers of any age.
  16. Drag Me to Hell
    Drag Me to Hell is an eyeball-gouging lesson in how to make a genre flick and live to tell about it.
  17. Pontypool
    A horror flick that's all talk and (almost) no action? The risk pays off better than you'd think.
  18. What Goes Up
    Glatzer's self-consciously quirky indie is misguided on every level.
  19. Dance Flick
    There's an art to making a good spoof, but good luck finding it in Dance Flick, not only because the movie goes for easy toilet humor, but because it often relies on it to stay afloat.
  20. O'Horten
    A quiet, oddly serene movie with a curious soul.
  21. Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian
    Far surpasses original.
  22. 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.
  23. The Boys: The Sherman Brothers' Story
    A vital one for movie fans.
  24. Easy Virtue
    We could all use a little more Noel Coward in our lives. But the fizz falls flat in Stephan Elliot's adaptation of a lesser-known play, which, while blithe enough, has little spirit to speak of.
  25. Terminator Salvation
    A fast-moving, rock 'em-sock 'em movie that continues the man-vs.-machines series begun 25 years ago.
  26. Burma VJ: Reporter i et lukket land
    Anyone who doubts that a single individual can make a political impact should see Anders Østergaard’s gripping documentary.
  27. Angels & Demons
    Despite the overlong running time, the action moves smoothly and swiftly.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 20 Critic Score
    The Brothers Bloom
    An overstuffed failure that mistakes sleight storytelling for dazzling entertainment.
  29. Big Man Japan
    When a movie is this strange, it's gotta count for something.
  30. The Big Shot-Caller
    Too many threads are woven together here, but occasionally, it just connects.
