  1. Toast
    Based on a memoir by Nigel Slater, a British celebrity chef who makes a cameo appearance, Toast also charts the budding chef's growing interest in hunky, scantily clad guys. Be warned: Some of the regional British accents would benefit from subtitles.
  2. Cirkus Columbia
    A family getting evicted from its home is no laughing matter, except if you're watching Cirkus Columbia, a satiric comedy from, of all places, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
  3. Right at Your Door
    As frightening as it intends to be, but not enjoyably so.
  4. Cold Pursuit
    Cold Pursuit is stark and refreshing, like taking an icy swim with the Polar Bear Club. A jolt. The movie makes you want him to stay around for a while longer.
  5. Generation War
    The densely plotted Generation War sweeps past implausibilities and offers the can’t-put-it-down qualities of a superior airport novel; its last third is affecting. But a bold confrontation with the past? Not so much.
  6. Strangers with Candy
    The Amy Sedaris comedy based on the failed TV show isn't the least funny film of the year - but for that it should send a thank-you note to "United 93."
  7. Shut Up Little Man! An Audio Misadventure
    The film achieves near-poignancy in its final act, when we finally meet one of the two elderly tipplers, plus a friend who occasionally stayed at their apartment and endured their shouting matches.
  8. Saudate for the Future
    A summer delight that also provides a quick cultural education.
  9. Bubba Ho-tep
    It's a credit to the actors, particularly the superb Campbell, that completely preposterous material can be made strangely touching.
  10. Snow White and the Huntsman
    The nearly two preceding hours often feel like three, as the patchwork script keeps introducing characters and subplots and dropping them, all while rushing characters through eye-popping environments.
  11. Greetings from Tim Buckley
    Director Daniel Algrant chose well with Badgley, who transcends the rather made-for-TV vibe with a decent rendition of Buckley’s haunting falsetto.
  12. Coach Carter
    Predictable.
  13. Assisted Living
    Jarringly insensitive and amateurish debut feature.
  14. 1,000 Times Good Night
    The movie is about a situation, not a story — there’s little narrative momentum — and as is often the case with movies about journalists, the mood of smug sanctimony becomes unbearable.
  15. Brighton Rock
    Graham Greene's guilt-and-gangsters tale "Brighton Rock" gets an even more melodramatic telling than in the 1947 film version courtesy of first-time director Rowan Joffe, whose histrionic adaptation screams "student film" with practically every frame.
  16. High School Musical 3: Senior Year
    There is also something surgically sterile. The movie sounds as though it was recorded in a padded chamber instead of a bustling school, and it looks like it came from some alternate world, one that basks in the eternal sunshine of the spotless skin.
  17. The Great New Wonderful
    In the future, more and more filmmakers will do exactly what The Great New Wonderful has done: conceal their lack of ideas by bringing up 9/11.
  18. Confetti
    A strained, ultra-predictable and headache-inducing mockumentary.
  19. A Walk Among the Tombstones
    They don’t make ’em like A Walk Among the Tombstones any more. Mainly because everyone got bored with ’em and stopped watching ’em.
  20. Backstage
    There's a pleasing tension in the air as their relationship comes to seem like something of a contest: With two women this needy, who will out-crazy the other?
  21. Morning Glory
    It includes more than a few clever lines, and boasts a stellar cast, including the underutilized Diane Keaton.
  22. The Last Kiss
    If I were a member of Generation X, I would be fed up with Hollywood's obsession with the idea that its men are genetically incapable of growing up.
  23. The Tavern
    A worthwhile choice in a crowded marketplace.

  24. Sasayaki
    Newcomer Akihiko Shiota shows talent as a director, but he allows Sasayaki to go on too long.
  25. Up at the Villa
    There are a few interesting moments, but basically Up at the Villa is dangerously short of sympathetic characters.
  26. The Man from Elysian Fields
    Suffers from an air of frosty detachment and a disappointingly stiff performance from Jagger, who also provides an unnecessary voice-over narration.
  27. Alila
    Gitai's characters are meant to represent the Israeli people as a whole. Just as they question their lives, the filmmaker questions 21st-century Israel.
  28. Wrath of Man
    Wrath of Man isn’t as blatantly funny as “The Gentlemen” is, though it has its laughs, but it is taut and exhilarating without a single wasted moment.
  29. Today's Special
    Charming and mouthwatering.
  30. Last Chance Harvey
    Slight but utterly charming.
