  1. Ken Marino of "Dawson's Creek," who wrote the somewhat autobiographical script, plays one of Rudd's pals.
  2. Never reaches the heights of "Short Cuts" or "Magnolia" -- two multi-story films that clearly provided inspiration -- but it's a thoughtful road trip well worth taking.
  3. Capping off the year that transgender stopped being transgressive, the story of artist Lili Elbe (Eddie Redmayne) makes for one of the year’s finest films.
  4. A riotous dark comedy in which a cute suburban get-together becomes a lethal nightmare.
  5. The film is most effective when Geier, accompanied by a granddaughter, goes to Ukraine to speak at a school.
  6. Short, sweet, raunchy and often screamingly funny.
  7. Its "I see dead people" premise is shopworn, but Hong Kong brothers Oxide and Danny Pang manage to deliver real skin-prickling jolts with their minimalist horror film.
  8. An energetic, feel-good blend of comedy, romance and benign drama -- with a side dish of social commentary -- that works despite its strict adherence to the culture clash/generation gap formula.
  9. If it weren't for the estrogen-fueled action scenes -- choreographed by director Cory Yuen with wit and style -- So Close would be as disposable as the shampoo ad it all too often resembles.
  10. Unfolds leisurely, in anecdotal style, with deadpan humor and a sense of the absurd.
  11. A surprisingly upbeat look at that Middle East hotspot.
  12. On the M. Night Shyamalan scale of stupid endings, The Prestige isn't as bad as "The Village" but it's comparable to "Unbreakable."
  13. Like the Master of Suspense's best films, Double Take (which makes great use of Bernard Herrmann's haunting "Psycho" score) is an intellectual puzzle that also works as a thoroughly accessible entertainment.
  14. If I weren't already being paid to watch this movie, I'd feel entitled to compensation for having to sit through this many product plugs.
  15. No matter how well you know “Over the Rainbow,” you may never hear it as heartbreakingly performed as Zellweger sings it here.
  16. Absent of any edge or layered characters, Wonka is at its most enjoyable when you forget the novel and classic Gene Wilder film and strap in for routine pleasantness.
  17. T's formulaic interview style gives the proceedings a bit of a student-project vibe - perhaps understandable for a guy who clearly thinks artists should always be open to learning more.
  18. Truth also ignores Rather’s famous showboating, pettiness and hubris. He’s worked in lower-profile gigs since, but trust me, there’s a good reason why no news organization will touch Mapes with a 10-foot pole.
  19. After sitting a while in front of my computer trying to come with the right word to describe the Argentine soaper Family Law, I've settled on "diverting." You will be entertained, but you won't tax your brain.
  20. A windbaggy film of Phillip Roth's novella "The Dying Animal."
  21. A disarming but low-impact documentary that amounts to an odd dual biopic, Shepard & Dark can feel a bit like intruding on a conversation between two old friends.
  22. It's the Food Network meets The Weather Channel meets . . . the Scary Doomsday Preachers Channel.
  23. October Country doesn't really have a point, or a story, but it's an almost unbearably vivid portrait of four generations in a single working-class family.
  24. A wicked little horror film in which nearly all of the violence takes place in your head, In Fear expertly builds terror out of not much more than two people driving around in a car.
  25. A technical and performance success. The chemistry between Sosa and Lujan heats up the screen as their lives spiral out of control.
  26. IF you like rap, you'll probably enjoy The Hip Hop Project. I don't like rap.
  27. A movie bursting with nothingness.
  28. an overstuffed, overlong epic with a tongue-in-cheek approach.
  29. It's fascinating and moving all the same, both in its depiction of Iranian daily life and in its powerful portrait of female oppression.
  30. This wacky former Andy Warhol superstar more than holds your interest in an offbeat documentary.
