  1. So bad it's almost (but not quite) good, Dan Ireland's Jolene is an unusually elaborate and excruciatingly long vanity production based on a short story by E.L. Doctorow ("Ragtime").
  2. If Swedish villains are this dumb, put me on the next plane to Stockholm. Just don't make me watch these idiotic movies on the flight.
  3. An unconventional movie that requires an unconventional mindset to appreciate.
  4. Douglas Langway's middling comedy is sort of a "Sex and the City" for big, hirsute gay guys and the younger cubs who fancy them.
  5. There's certainly a good movie to be made about Muslim punk musicians in the US, but this isn't it.
  6. See his movie now, brag about your discerning taste for undiscovered talent later.
  7. There isn't enough plot in this amateurish mope-athon to fill up a half-hour TV show.
  8. A 2010 movie that could have been made in 1940.
  9. Milks the very real problem of "organ tourism" for all the melodrama and car chases it's worth.
  10. Really belongs on Lifetime rather than in theaters.
  11. When an 80-year-old director turns his attention to death, you hope for some insight, or gravitas, or even whimsy or anger. Hereafter has none of that.
  12. A real old-fashioned crowd-pleaser.
  13. Although the film is, by design, an unwatchable mess on one level and its one joke about 8 mm filmmaking would play better as a music video or a TV commercial, there's no denying the crazed dedication to detail.
  14. A movie steeped in sin that squats awkwardly in a cinematic purgatory between tawdry and talky.
  15. If you find hedge funds hard to wrap your head around, the movie Human Capital won’t do much to ease the confusion.
  16. Oh, and one more thing the comedy of Jackass 3D has in common with "The Divine Comedy": Neither of them is funny.
  17. RED
    Red has more snappy joy in store than practically all of last summer's busted blockbusters.
  18. It's full of funny stuff, from a hitman forced to drag along his 3-year-old when he can't get a sitter, to one of the goons being asked, "Do you have a Web presence?"
  19. Carlos is exciting entertainment, even if its subject's two-decade reign of terror is reprehensible.
  20. Secretariat ultimately delivers where it matters, in the home stretch.
  21. Possibly because Heigl is one of the producers, the most beautiful woman in the film -- the stunning Christina Hendricks of "Mad Men" -- dies in an off-screen car crash barely before the opening credits are over.
  22. There's not a moment of true wildness in It's Kind of a Funny Story, which never gets any more outrageous than projective vomiting.
  23. Name names, please. Or shut up.
  24. It's strange enough to be raised by your aunt. For young John Lennon, things get stranger still when he finds himself dating his mother.
  25. First-time director Jeff Malmberg tells Hogancamp's fascinating story with sensitivity, never resorting to exploitation.
  26. Exploitation pure and simple. But it's artistically redeeming exploitation. If you can handle it, see it.
  27. Letters could be dismissed as a soap opera, but that would be unfair to this beautiful work. It features tender performances by Kaarina Hazard (Leila) and Jukka Keinonen (Jacob), as well as beautiful cinematography by Tuomo Hutri.
  28. Quite possibly the first truly great fact-based movie of the 21st century.
  29. The scariest, creepiest and most elegantly filmed horror movie I've seen in years - it positively drives a stake through the competition.
  30. An invigorating and surprising journey.
