  1. Blue Beard
    Bluebeard revisits themes often found in Breillat's films -- sibling rivalry, pedophilia, gender conflict -- but it remains fresh and new.
  2. The Conspirator
    Redford's history lesson illustrates the old maxim that those who forget history are bound to repeat it.
  3. Scottsboro: An American Tragedy
    A well-researched picture of how racism led to nine men being falsely accused and wrongly convicted. One only wishes that the filmmakers had more than 84 minutes in which to tell the story.
  4. Lost in La Mancha
    When Gilliam is finally forced to admit defeat, it is nothing short of heartbreaking - for audiences, too, as the few shots that made it into the can hold such promise.
  5. Earth
    Earth, you had me at baby polar bears.
  6. The Last of the Unjust
    Lanzmann, for his part, begins the interview with a sharp, probing manner; by the end, the filmmaker’s questions and body language are conveying something altogether different.
  7. Mr. Nice
    You don't have to be stoned to watch Mr. Nice, but it might help to be in the same state of mind as its real-life anti-hero, drug kingpin Howard Marks.
  8. Land of the Dead
    Brains! Brains! Why can't they make a zombie movie with brains? This is one. Romero has given us, as well as the zombies, a lot to chew on.
  9. The Beat That My Heart Skipped
    Even when deadly silent, though, as he is through most of the film, Duris is brutally eloquent.
  10. This Is the End
    There is stuff in This Is the End that had me laughing so hard, I sensed new body parts joining in to help out — my pancreas was heaving, my bile ducts ripped.
  11. The Signal
    Its young director, however, has a considerable flair for surprise and visual gusto, and he even, on a shoestring, delivers sharp-looking special effects.
  12. Crazy in Alabama
    Risks trivializing history and pandering to feminist fantasies, but it may be the year's most fearless movie.
    • New York Post
  13. Moonlight
    A disturbing and daring thriller with an exceptional performance by 13-year-old Laurien Van den Broeck.
  14. Inside Man
    Has a doozy of a surprise ending that doesn't really stand up under close scrutiny - but you'll have so much fun getting there, it's easy to go along with Lee and company for the ride.
  15. The Guys
    A devastatingly straightforward chamber piece that goes straight to the heart of what this city was feeling in the days right after Sept. 11.
  16. The Weight
    Familiar though it is, the skillfully made movie finds vigor in the been-there-done-that.
  17. Dedication
    A pleasingly weird, dryly funny little indie.
  18. The Sheep Detectives
    The evidence adds up cleverly and the script doesn’t coast on its status as a nice family movie in order to avoid delivering a satisfying conclusion. It’s meaty, like a roast leg of, well, you know.
  19. Howl
    This multi-pronged labor of love doesn't always work, but it often does, sometimes in ways that take your breath away.
  20. Rubber
    Picture Monty Python writing an unusually odd "Twilight Zone" episode directed by surrealist Luis Buñuel. Or just empty your mind of all sense: This is Rubber.
  21. The Cloud of Unknowing
    Sylvarnes, who scripted, directed, edited and photographed this amazing first feature, makes spectacular use of digital video.

    The Gospel According to André
    Unlike previous glossy docs such as “The September Issue,” Gospel is far more than a dressed-up Vogue infomercial.
  23. Cropsey
    On several levels, this film is a real-life horror story that puts most Hollywood movies to shame.
  24. The Princess of Montpensier
    Viewers unfamiliar with the politics of the era might feel lost as the plot unfolds, and the 139-minute running time might be a bit much. But why quibble?
  25. Shake Hands with the Devil: The Journey of Roméo Dallaire
    The filmmakers follow this compassionate and articulate man as he returns to Rwanda a decade later to revisit his demons.
  26. Find Me Guilty
    Find Me Guilty belongs to the odd couple of Dinklage and Diesel, whose volatile performance finally proves he is much more than an action star.
  27. Little Miss Sunshine
    A smart, dark road comedy.
  28. Man on the Train
    A thinking man's buddy movie.
  29. Enter the Void
    From the rapid-fire, purposely unreadable opening credits to the final baby POV shot of a birth, this is a dazzling and brutal exercise in cinematic envelope-pushing.
  30. Straight Outta Tompkins
    Only in his early 20s, Zephyr Benson makes a remarkably assured debut as writer, director and star of Straight Outta Tompkins, his tongue-in-cheek title for his past as a middle-class drug dealer in lower Manhattan.
