  1. A would-be piece of pulp fiction about a parolee trying to go straight, The Samaritan proves that even Samuel L. Jackson can be boring.
  2. A kid comedy that's been zapped by extraterrestrial suckiness rays.
  3. I went in expecting to be disappointed, but even so, I was disappointed.
  4. Director-writer Shimon Dotan takes this iffy story and makes it nearly unwatchable by jumping back and forth in time, using screens within screens and bouncing between color and black-and-white.
  5. His late father directed "Rambo: First Blood,'' but Panos Cosmatos' debut feature couldn't be more different - this would-be cult classic is the movie equivalent of gazing at a lava lamp for nearly two hours.
  6. Good Luck Chuck, a fungal little sex comedy, doesn't need a review. It needs a tube of ointment and a shot of penicillin.
  7. That Awkward Moment is a rom-com for dudes that seeks to outdo the ladies by being even more insipid, formulaic and contrived than anything Katherine Heigl has ever done.
  8. Four Brothers? Ringling Brothers is more like it, because John Singleton's latest stinks like something the elephants left behind. It's not clear what the film is trying to do, but it seems safe to guess that it's doing it wrong.
  9. Misconceived, bloated and incredibly ugly fantasy epic.
  10. Love Happens is a weepie about the grieving process, mainly my own.
  11. The nicest thing I can think of to say about the doc Neil Young Journeys is that at least it isn't in 3-D.
  12. The only thing that's shocking about Death of a President is how boring it is.
  13. The only possible relief from director Xavier Gens' abusively bleak survivalist scenario is how implausible it is.
  14. The rest of the cast is uniformly awful, including Carmen Electra and Kathy Griffin as a wacky medium who asks, "What do I look like? A comedian?" Not from where I'm sitting.
  15. Romantic comedies are often as contrived and irritating as Loosies, but few feature a lead character so lacking in appeal.
  16. It settles for being a bland and preposterous thriller.
  17. It reeks of contempt for the audience. This is not just a "B-movie" -- it's a B-movie that fails to entertain on any level.
  18. Screamers, one of the most bizarre documentaries you'll ever not see.
  19. Completely lacking in imagination and purpose, this vanity project might suffice as a home movie, but it's hardly worth the expense and bother of seeing it in a theater.
  20. A comedic sinkhole, a dramatic tundra.
  21. Bereft of inspiration, the agonizingly witless screenplay - blamed by the credits on George Gallo - resorts to pathetic cheap jokes about flatulence and impotence, lame slapstick and that juvenile gag about the horror of two men waking up naked in the same bed.
  22. A movie so pathetically lame that hopefully even Spears most ardent young fans will give this stinker a big thumbs down.
  23. The entire movie seems to have about the same budget as a 30-second sneaker commercial. I'm not talking Nike, either. I'm talking a commercial for Steve's Second-Hand Sneaker World and Falafel Emporium that you'd see on NY1 News at 3:08 a.m.
  24. Strings together 60 amateurish short films to tell us drugs are cool, man.
  25. Anything can happen when Michael Cera wanders around Chile without a script on a mission to get high on mescaline. Or, in the case of Crystal Fairy, nothing could happen, too.
  26. A thoroughly amateurish effort at capturing clued-in and smartass teens.
  27. Actual abduction may be preferable to the movie of the same name, but only if your kidnappers don't torture you by forcing you to watch it.
  28. Rookie director Sean Kirkpatrick keeps stomping on the drama pedal while blowing the cliché horn, yielding scene after tired scene of predictable developments as the principals keep shoving guns into mouths and screaming obscenities.
  29. In a culture where Anderson Cooper is out and gay-inclusive shows like "Modern Family" are wildly popular, a dud like Babymakers doesn't even find sticking power in its offensiveness. It just wipes off.
  30. The hero is the Texas prosecutor who won a questionable indictment of DeLay, Ronnie Earle. But he sounds more extreme the more he talks.
