  1. Cry_Wolf
    Which is scarier: a maniac in an orange ski mask wielding a hunting knife - or Jon Bon Jovi as a journalism teacher? Cry_Wolf gives us both, and though Bon Jovi is livin' on a prayer if he thinks he's an actor, the movie is a find.
  2. Just Like Heaven
    Just Like Heaven isn't far short of a classic among romantic comedies with a teary chaser, sure to please fans of "Ghost" and "Heaven Can Wait."
  3. Lord of War
    Picture how insufferable "GoodFellas" would be if it climaxed with a federal agent making a speech about the victims claimed by organized crime.
  4. Everything Is Illuminated
    Liev Schreiber's film version of "Everything Is Illuminated" achieves the impossible — it's even more annoying than Jonathan Safran Foer's gratingly precocious novel.
  5. Corpse Bride
    An instant classic.
  6. Hard Goodbyes: My Father
    Hard Goodbyes could easily have been maudlin, but isn't. Credit an adult script and realistic acting, especially by Giorgos Karayannis as Elias.
  7. Thumbsucker
    The actors can't escape the confines of the warmed-over, coming-of-age-in-suburbia script by Mills, from a novel by Walter Kirn.
  8. The Thing About My Folks
    Director Raymond de Felitta, who directed a little-seen gem called "Two Family House" a few years ago, gives Falk plenty of room to do his thing. There's an underlying emotional truth even in scenes that seem terribly contrived.
  9. Stupid Boy
    Garcon Stupide features the best gay seduction scene ever filmed on a Ferris wheel. Unfortunately, you have to sit through the entire movie to get to it. Whether you want to will depend on your interest in explicit gay sex.
  10. G
    This poorly acted, directed and written (but slick-looking) vanity project was produced by Andrew Lauren (Ralph's son also ineptly plays G's major-domo) and shot at least four years ago.
  11. Venom
    All hopes for suspense and plot twists are snuffed out about as quickly as the film's black characters.
  12. Separate Lies
    A soufflé that begins promisingly but never quite rises.
  13. Piggie
    Proves that you don't need a big budget to make a dynamite film.
  14. The Future of Food
    Enlightening documentary.
  15. Trilogy: The Weeping Meadow
    In his fourth outing with the director, cinematographer Andreas Sinanos produces stunning scene after stunning scene, almost as if each frame were a small painting.
  16. The Man
    Yet another screwed-up mess that will give audiences another excuse to shun the multiplexes this weekend.
  17. An Unfinished Life
    Freeman is Freeman, all homespun dignity. Surely it's time for him to play a saucy interior decorator or a crazed dictator.
  18. The Exorcism of Emily Rose
    This windy courtroom drama is punctuated by cheesy flashbacks.
  19. Cote d'Azur
    It's hard to make a dull movie with copious nudity and all kinds of sex (straight, bi and gay), although French filmmakers Olivier Ducastel and Jacques Martineau manage to do so in Cote d'Azur.
  20. Keane
    Lewis, from the TV series "Band of Brothers," gives a super performance, but the revelation here is young Breslin, who was in Garry Marshall's "Raising Helen" and M. Night Shyamalan's "Signs."
  21. Steal Me
    Solid performances can't save Melissa Painter's pretentious teen drama Steal Me, which plays like a cross between "Dangerous Skin" (without the gay sex) and "Picnic" (without the production values or credible situations).
  22. Green Street Hooligans
    Director and co-writer Lexi Alexander choreographs the fight scenes with thrilling chaos, and the plot unfolds expertly if melodramatically.
  23. Kamikaze Girls
    What Kamikaze Girls doesn't have is a plot. As nice as the film looks, it soon grows tiresome -- though I could listen to the Johann Strauss II soundtrack forever.
  24. Make It Funky!
    Despite the attention focused on New Orleans these days, though, the film won't win many new converts. The musicians swear this is dance music, but the beats are far too ponderous to get a rise out of the hip-hop generation.
  25. Walking on the Sky
    A tediously self-absorbed variation on "The Big Chill" and "The Return of the Secaucus 7."
  26. Edge Codes.com: The Art of Motion Picture Editing
    Could do with a tad of editing itself. Other than that, there's nothing bad to say about this cool homage to the film world's unsung heroes: editors.
  27. Touch the Sound: A Sound Journey with Evelyn Glennie
    Call this a profile in courage.
  28. Transporter 2
    It busts the credibility meter early on, quickly becomes preposterous, and then really lets its imagination rip.
  29. A Sound of Thunder
    If 65 million years of evolution have been building up to this movie, then Darwin was wrong. But there's no intelligent design here either.
  30. Underclassman
    The only hint of professionalism comes from Cheech Marin as Cannon's boss, who at times seems to be acting in a different movie.
