  1. Masterful, atypically political - and flawlessly acted.
  2. A deliciously elusive mystery.
  3. You could make a very funny comedy about a guy who pretends to be retarded so he can win the Special Olympics, but The Ringer isn't it.
  4. So, should you see The Intruder? Yes -- but only if you're willing to ignore bothersome concerns about narrative and let the poetic images take over your mind.
  5. The point isn't really to make you laugh. The film is supposed to make people feel good about their families, and it does a fine job of it.
  6. The material has been dumbed down for contemporary tastes and Carrey's frantic comic style.
  7. Following his triumphs in "The Constant Gardener" and "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire," Fiennes is superb as Todd.
  8. A satisfying, big-hearted celebration of diversity that will brighten holiday moviegoing.
  9. Oh no, another let's-drag-a-dead-body-to-Mexico flick?
  10. The Chinese pleaser Electric Shadows belongs to a genre they don't teach in film school: Triple S, as in sweet, sappy and sentimental.
  11. From bad to worse - Even in verse - The Producers moves like a hearse -Mildness and blandness -Mugging like madness - Who knew that "Rent" would win this fight? - Murdering a genre's just not all right!
  12. Zippily written and directed by the team of Cory Edwards, Todd Edwards and Tony Leech, Hoodwinked just wants the audience to have fun - something that's been in sparse supply in theaters of late.
  13. Beware of blood-sucking Mormons! At least that's the tongue-in-cheek message in Trapped by the Mormons, a campy sendup shot as a 1920s silent movie.
  14. Break out the popcorn and prepare to be blown away. King Kong is the most pulse- pounding and heart-stirring romantic adventure since "Titanic."
  15. Luckily for us, Grace Lee recorded everything in the fun documentary The Grace Lee Project.
  16. Almereyda's muddled Happy Here and Now should have stayed on the shelf - where it's been gathering dust for several years.
  17. It's based on a novel, but you'd guess it came from a coffee-table book. Marvelous design, photography and costuming mark this period piece.
  18. This is one of the best serious films about homosexuality ever made, but though it's sad and sobering it's still only a rough draft of a great movie.
  19. Constantly battling, Hoskins and Dench have terrific chemistry together.
  20. Overlong, poorly paced and woodenly acted film.
  21. An outrageous horror flick.
  22. A disturbing and daring thriller with an exceptional performance by 13-year-old Laurien Van den Broeck.
  23. White-haired Ronnie Gilbert of the Weavers -- the group was blacklisted during the McCarthy years -- is in especially fine voice.
  24. Pietro Sibille is exceptional as Santiago, and the rest of the cast turn in dynamic performances.
  25. Hopkins' larger-than-life performance as the crusty and crafty Burt rivets your attention for two solid hours in this most entertaining labor of love.
  26. Aeon Flux is by far the year's worst movie, a most dubious achievement.
  27. Like a preoperative transsexual, Transamerica is neither one thing nor the other. It yanks at the heartstrings too much to qualify as an edgy comedy-drama, but it's far too bawdy to make it to the Hallmark Channel.
  28. an overlong and surprisingly dull documentary.
  29. THE mesmerizingly awful The Kid & I is a historic first: a comedy about the making of a vanity production that is ITSELF a vanity production.
  30. A master class on turning a talky, one-man play into a visual delight.
