    Smother
    It's very sad to watch Keaton here. In the most excruciating scene, she gets drunk in a bar, staggers up to a microphone and starts to sing, or rather squawk. For those of us who still revere Annie Hall and her blissfully unaffected rendition of "Seems Like Old Times," this is sacrilege.
  2. Arthur
    Attempting to fill Dudley Moore's top hat in Arthur, Russell Brand rapidly descends the rungs of the comedy ladder from "unfunny" to "irritating" to "vulgar" to the bottom one - "Andy Dick."
  3. Days and Nights
    The cast, so packed with talent that Jean Reno and Cherry Jones barely register, is stuck with stagey dialogue. Juliet Rylance, in the Nina part, has a particularly hard time. But there are good points, including Janney’s obvious pleasure in her part.
  4. Against the Ropes
    Ryan spends much of the grubby-looking boxing drama Against the Ropes with her face screwed up in distaste, as if a dirty sock is being waved under her nose. Perhaps it's because the movie she's in stinks.
  5. Abandon
    A confusing mishmash.
  6. Jeepers Creepers II
    There are a few good jolts - and a moderate amount of spurting blood - but things pretty much proceed exactly as you think they will.
  7. Biker Boyz
    More "the mild one" than "The Wild One."
  8. The Other Brother
    Holland lets things peter out midway, but it's notably better acted -- and far less crass -- than some other recent efforts in the burgeoning genre of films about black urban professionals.
  9. Returner
    Soporific, shamelessly derivative and barely coherent by American standards.
  10. Shwaas
    An old-fashioned soaper that will please or not, depending on a viewer's tolerance for schmaltz.
  11. A Man Apart
    Violent and unoriginal actioner.
  12. Shanghai
    Hossein Amini’s script leaves good actors like John Cusack, Ken Watanabe and Chow Yun-Fat flailing.
  13. Beware the Gonzo
    A thoroughly amateurish effort at capturing clued-in and smartass teens.
  14. The Tollbooth
    Kirschner's excruciatingly earnest coming-of-age comedy, is about as fresh as year-old matzoh and plays like the unholy spawn of "Brighton Beach Memoirs" and "Fiddler on the Roof."
  15. Remember the Daze
    We keep waiting for a story, or at least some comedy, but none ever materializes. The dialogue makes Algebra II seem fascinating by comparison.
  16. Employee of the Month
    For short stretches, the movie has a touch of surreal "Office Space" brilliance, but it's broadly acted, its characters are thin, and the production values are ragged. Still, it's hard to resist its goofy hostility: "You're like the drummer from REO Speedwagon. Nobody knows who you are."
  17. Phat Girlz
    The film is amateurishly directed and sluggishly paced with an anorexic plot. Even the photography, sound and costumes are substandard.
  18. The Canyons
    Paul Schrader’s The Canyons is not the worst movie of 2013 — it's marginally better than "InAPPpropriate Comedy" and "Scary Movie 5," two even worse bombs that Lindsay Lohan also lent her rapidly diminishing talents to — but it is surely the most boring I’ve seen.
  19. Space Jam: A New Legacy
    Over its interminable, nearly two-hour runtime, the film repeatedly mocks its very existence.
  20. Circuit
    Dirk Shafer's feature doesn't offer much in terms of plot or acting. But it does have oodles of hunky male bodies. The choice is yours.
  21. Big Fat Liar
    Loud and unfunny, this cheesy-looking farce is mostly an excuse for a series of plugs.
  22. Amy's Orgasm
    Its bawdy honesty eventually gives way to convention, sentimentality and a frustratingly silly ending.
  23. Thunderbirds
    Beautiful Brit actress Sophia Myles ("From Hell") is so arch, canny and amusing as the posh, pink-obsessed spy Lady Penelope, it's as if she is acting in the movie this should have been.
  24. Victor Frankenstein
    By going exactly where you think it’s going, Victor Frankenstein doesn’t so much invent a fresh origins story as it essentially repeats, with a few uninteresting new details, all the same stuff we’ve seen in the other 457 Frankenstein movies.
  25. Resident Evil: Apocalypse
    There is nothing startlingly new in Resident Evil: Apocalpyse, but it is delivered with some panache and humor.
  26. Criminal
    Turn off your frontal lobe, and you just might enjoy it.
  27. The Wicker Man
    Profoundly disturbing, blood-chilling suspenser.
  28. Diary of a Mad Black Woman
    Plays like an unwieldy mishmash of "Big Momma's House," "An Unmarried Woman" and "The Burning Bed," with lots of gospel music thrown in.
  29. Are We Done Yet?
    While the latest installment avoids the nonstop parade of potty jokes, it never rises much past the level of mediocrity.
  30. Space Chimps
    I went in expecting to be disappointed, but even so, I was disappointed.
