  1. Excruciatingly maudlin.
  2. Provides a few minor thrills, but overall is talky and implausible.
  3. Devoid of 21st-century irony, this visually stunning, action-packed yuletide treat is sweet and, yes, magical in a way that will enchant kids and give older viewers a twinge of nostalgia.
  4. Brutally funny documentary.
  5. This is Ebiri's first feature after directing four shorts. He shows talent, but shouldn't give up his day job just yet.
  6. This Alfie has been castrated.
  7. If you're thinking of taking the kids to Bear Cub because the title sounds like something they'd enjoy -- don't!
  8. Campy and clichéd.
  9. An intelligent and entertaining exploration of racial and sexual politics that brings alive the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s, and draws parallels with African-American identity crises of today.
  10. This masturbatory exercise is the least revealing "documentary" since Jerry Seinfeld's "Comedian."
  11. A spectacularly rendered tale of a family of superheroes, takes the art form to a whole new level.
  12. Manages to entertain while saying something about loneliness and culture shock.
  13. A thoughtful, old-school documentary.
  14. Ray
    Contains large helpings of Hollywood schmaltz, stereotype and clich‚, but it's also pretty impossible to resist.
  15. Saw
    Promoted as "the year's scariest movie," it's anything but.
  16. Kidman gives an other stunning performance in Birth, but it is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma that ultimately reveals . . . not much.
  17. Contains impeccable performances, especially by the frightening Ifans.
  18. Has funny moments, but it also has a lot of drag time.
  19. A surprisingly upbeat look at that Middle East hotspot.
  20. A weird hybrid of cloning thriller and futuristic love story, with hints of "The Godfather" and "Ice Castles" - and it wears its disjointed nature like a badge of honor.
  21. Shamelessly press viewers' emotional buttons. But the film is so well-made and the performances so accomplished that it doesn't matter.
  22. A sublime variation on the buddy road movie, infusing the midlife crises of the two main protagonists with hope and poetry.
  23. The Grudge offers a bit more exposition than did "Ju-On," but the plot is still wispy.
  24. A crass, shrill and laughless disaster of a holiday comedy with a desperately mugging Ben Affleck that should be banned under the Geneva Convention.
  25. A joyous, toe-tapping celebration of a musical style born of sorrow.
  26. Anderson gives The Machinist a sickly noirish look that contributes to the creeping horror - but it's the emaciated Bale's spectral presence that leaves the imprint.
  27. A sporadically amusing curiosity that falls short of effectively satirizing the public's fixation with the minutiae of celebrity lives.
  28. Conforms to many of the tropes of a formula thriller but, aided by an evocative Philip Glass score and Tim Orr's beautifully naturalistic cinematography, it transcends the genre.
  29. Never rises above the level of a second-rate TV sit-com.
  30. See it - if you dare.
