  1. A satisfying Irish stew made from very familiar ingredients.
    • New York Post
  2. It's hard to feel anything but disappointment and boredom by the time the picture grinds to a mystical ending.
    • New York Post
  3. All of the characters in this story of love, guilt and redemption feel like real people, facing real dilemmas, and you truly care about what happens to them
  4. It lurches ineptly from lame comedy to hokey melodrama.
    • New York Post
  5. Isn't Allen's finest work by a long shot, but an undeniable part of its fascination is trying to figure out what -- if anything, even unconsciously -- he's trying to say about how he treated Farrow.
  6. Worth seeing for McTeer's touching, funny and richly detailed performance, which should put her on the map in Hollywood.
  7. A hokey, overblown and deeply unsatisfying movie.
    • New York Post
  8. Toy Story had a simpler, stronger story and the advantage of being the first of its kind. But it's quickly apparent that TS2 represents a major step forward in computer-animation artistry.
  9. De Niro gives a technically brilliant performance as Walt, struggling with a body that will no longer obey him.
    • New York Post
  10. Comes closer to what a Bond movie should be and once was.
  11. As a horror movie, even one inspired by the kitschy Hammer horror films of the 1950s, it's disappointing.
  12. The year's best foreign-language movie an absolute must-see.
    • New York Post
  13. Easily one of the year's best movies.
  14. The latest episode of this ongoing masterpiece of reality TV -- which every seven years revisits a group of English people first interviewed as 7-year-olds in 1964 -- is every bit as enthralling as the earlier ones.
    • New York Post
  15. Kevin Smith's attempt to combine sketchy low comedy with long-winded theological speculation results in a mostly unfunny and occasionally tedious mess.
    • New York Post
  16. But given the potentially gripping subject matter, the film is fatally underedited: Every scene feels too long.
    • New York Post
  17. Well worth seeing for the incandescent Portman.
    • New York Post
  18. Besson is unable to weave the comic scenes together with the serious gory ones, so both seem increasingly jarring and unbelievable.
  19. Light It Up would be a strong candidate for the year's most irresponsible movie - if it were remotely believable.
  20. Some wonderful films have come out of Iran in the past few years, but A Moment of Innocence, by highly regarded director Mohsen Makhmalbaf, is too smug and too self-indulgent to count as one of them.
  21. Strictly a kids' movie, but parents may be relieved to sit back and enjoy the fact that for two full hours, they won't have to hear the kids asking them to buy any more Pokemon trading cards.
  22. So unremittingly vulgar and inept it makes "The Best Man" and "Runaway Bride" look like masterpieces by comparison.
    • New York Post
  23. Isn't particularly funny, romantic or well-acted. It drags on endlessly.
  24. Something most have gotten lost in the translation.
  25. Bleak, demanding stuff, and its hand-held documentary-style photography is harder on the stomach than "The Blair Witch Project."
  26. Entertaining but terminally dopey.
    • New York Post
  27. A misguided exercise - a crude merger of "Fiddler on the Roof" and "Schindler's List" that somehow reminds you of "Hogan's Heroes."
  28. A rare and welcome reminder of how original, provocative and moving a low-budget independent film can be.
  29. A beautifully shot, well-acted movie that manages to make a complicated, real-life story without much drama feel like a thriller.
  30. German director Werner Herzog's fascinating, fond and often bitchy documentary recalling the late star of his most celebrated movies.
