  1. On the Run
    Though On the Run is a welcome reminder that effective thrillers don't have to be noisy or dumb, the film does contain slightly jarring moments of inadvertent humor.
  2. The Big Bounce
    That The Big Bounce works at all is a testament to Wilson, an Oscar-nominated screenwriter ("The Royal Tenenbaums") who probably could have come up with something better in his sleep.
  3. Win a Date with Tad Hamilton!
    Despite his innate appeal and nimble line readings, Grace can't surmount the deficiencies of the underdog character screenwriter Victor Levin ("Mad About You") has saddled him with.
  4. Touching the Void
    A stunning achievement, every bit the equal of the classic moun taineering book which inspired it.
  5. The Butterfly Effect
    So consistently silly and overwrought that it flirts with the elusive so-bad-it's-entertaining category.
  6. Made-Up
    Tries to be many things -- romantic comedy, mockumentary, a satire on beauty and aging -- but ends up succeeding at none.
  7. Empathy
    A mix of documentary and fiction, it demystifies the profession in delightful fashion.
  8. Along Came Polly
    Recycles gags from various, more successful gross-out and romantic comedies, but without any zest or imagination.
  9. Teacher's Pet
    The animation, supervised by director Timothy Bjorkland, is deliberately crude, but it complements the wacky story line just as well as the excellent musical numbers, one of which is a spot-on homage/parody of Sondheim.
  10. Torque
    It's a simple-minded celebration of speed that pretends to be nothing else, even throwing in the occasional wink to acknowledge its own silliness.
  11. Cuba: Island of Music
    A toe-tapping, booty- shaking look at Cubans' love of music that gets bogged down in political thoughts that go unexplored.
  12. Tokyo Godfathers
    Ends in magnificent fashion, with skyscrapers bowing to Beethoven's Ninth. It's a stirring ending to a sweet movie.
  13. The Tracker
    Dialogue is sparse in this leisurely paced chase; instead, the bluesy vocals of indigenous singer Archie Roach -- singing de Heer's lyrics -- are layered over the action as a kind of musical narration.
  14. Chasing Liberty
    Light, doggedly formulaic romantic comedy that's almost instantly forgettable despite the sunny presence of teen queen Mandy Moore.
  15. My Baby's Daddy
    The finished product looks like it was thrown together during a lunch break -- by a drunk person. The level of ineptitude on display in this urban version of "Three Men and a Baby" is simply gobsmacking.
  16. Aileen: Life and Death of a Serial Killer
    A sobering, if exploitative, portrait of the real-life hitchhiking hooker portrayed so realistically by Charlize Theron in "Monster."
  17. Yves Saint Laurent 5 avenue Marceau 75116 Paris
    There are family photos, interviews with colleagues, newsreels of early shows, a chat with his mother and vintage interviews with an unbelievably young and sexy YSL.
  18. Secret Things
    Silly and pointless film.
  19. Japanese Story
    Snoozy and unconvincing.
  20. Millennium Mambo
    The film is dark, both literally and figuratively. Only at the very end do we get a glimpse of the sun.
  21. Cheaper by the Dozen
    Can be summed up by the fact that Ashton Kutcher, making a glorified cameo as a narcissistic model-slash-actor, is the best thing in it.
  22. Cold Mountain
    An exquisitely crafted Civil War epic that combines the epic romantic sweep of "Gone With the Wind" with a more intimate voice that speaks eloquently to the war-weary nation of today.
  23. Paycheck
    Woo has never been particularly good at human stuff, and to the extent that Paycheck is, or should be, a love story, it feels forced.
  24. Peter Pan
    Overall, though, this new Peter Pan does really soar.
  25. The Company
    Campbell is a sweet presence and a capable dancer, featured in a theatrical pas de deux on an open-air stage during a wild thunderstorm that is one of the film's visual highlights.
  26. The Young Black Stallion
    A visual treat diminished by lifeless dialogue and self-conscious acting.
  27. Children of Love
    Hard-hitting and biting.
  28. Monster
    Jenkins doesn't stint on the sickening reality of Wuornos' abhorrent behavior -- it's Theron's complex, deeply felt depiction of a thoroughly messed-up soul that forces us to look beyond the monstrous nature of her acts.
  29. Mona Lisa Smile
    Isn't boring, but it is sanctimonious, relentlessly predictable and willfully ignorant of the period it's set in.
  30. The Fog of War: Eleven Lessons from the Life of Robert S. McNamara
    An extraordinary documentary about an extraordinary man that brings to urgent life potentially dry questions of American foreign policy in the 1960s.
