  1. It doesn't measure up to Schlondorff's 1979 Oscar winner, "The Tin Drum," but it's compelling nevertheless.
  2. If there is a poetry to losing, then this film has as much as the collected works of John Milton.
  3. It could turn someone who never heard of the Flaming Lips into a devoted fan.
  4. Tender and often extremely funny.
  5. Eleonore Faucher, first-time director (and co-writer) of the French charmer Sequins, is well aware of Neymark's allure and sees to it that the young woman is seldom out of the frame.
  6. A relentlessly dull film that's shot on eyeball-gougingly ugly digital video.
  7. Maybe nothing here is supposed to be as scary as in the 1973 movie because this is merely the opening act. That's the problem with prequels, isn't it? It's like being asked to pay full price just to watch batting practice.
  8. If it weren't for "Sideways," Second Best probably wouldn't have been released at all, but the earlier film made you root for a hapless schmo. This one doesn't, mainly because its protagonist is so obnoxious.
  9. It remains for a tougher documentary to more forcefully trace exactly who benefits from this shameful practice -- multinational corporations and consumers who don't ask enough questions.
  10. Arguably the darkest episode in the entire series (and the first to carry a PG-13 rating) the visually stunning "Sith" is also the fastest-paced and most accessible.
  11. Fails to elicit any substantive information from his (Tommy Davis) subjects. And he fails to put their plight into perspective.
  12. The filmmakers follow this compassionate and articulate man as he returns to Rwanda a decade later to revisit his demons.
  13. So bad it's awful.
  14. R0bert Duvall as a pee wee soccer coach? Great idea, but Kicking and Screaming should have had him roar, "I love the smell of juice boxes in the morning."
  15. Fonda is a hoot and a half.
  16. A preposterous mix of sentiment and brutality that casts martial-arts star Jet Li as a music-loving killing machine, turns out to be his most entertaining movie in quite some time.
  17. A crowd-pleaser of the first order.
  18. Huppert is wonderful, as usual, and she's to be congratulated for taking this daring role. But, alas, even she can't save Ma Mere.
  19. This is a smart, vivid, thrillingly real gangster picture that nevertheless resembles many others.
  20. A long, messy cinematic novel full of hate, love, murder, ghosts, madness, poetry and Catherine Deneuve.
  21. An Iranian comedian named Omad Djalili plays Picasso, that sexually combustible Spanish bull, with all the earth-shaking allure of, say, Andy Richter.
  22. Breezy and informative. It offers a view of the talented, opinionated man that only his son could pull off.
  23. Treats us to some feverish decapitating, juicy stabbing and non-anesthetized fingertip removal.
  24. A rousing, politically correct, Muslim-sympathetic, $140 million take on the Crusades.
  25. Tommy Riley is a ten-cent "Baby."
  26. One of that film's funniest performers, John Michael Higgins, is on hand as a maniacal European celebrity handler who keeps swearing, "I am no homoist."
  27. Not for the squeamish, but it is a beautifully crafted and thoughtful film that genuinely provokes.
  28. A wry, "Rashomon"-like tale.
  29. A shaky effort to make a point about art triumphing over all.
  30. Director Susanne Bier is helped by a well-chosen cast, especially the glowing Nielsen, a Danish-born actress best known for American films like "Gladiator."
