  1. The two male actors are very good, but Juuso is particularly amusing and touching as the earthy heroine.
  2. The film's violent finale comes out of nowhere and will leave bewildered viewers wondering if they might have dozed off for a reel or two.
  3. Makes its biggest misstep in failing to persuade the viewer the five family members are charming eccentrics rather than irritating weirdos.
  4. Unfathomable balderdash.
  5. The film is extremely well-acted, and Berri is very good at demonstrating why the relationship is doomed.
  6. Strictly a love it-or-hate-it proposition, it requires viewers to work at a movie with a narrative that could support at least half a dozen interpretations.
  7. Trimming half an hour from this bloated, 143-minute blockbuster would have highlighted the film's treasures, not the least of which is Johnny Depp's endearingly eccentric performance as Captain Jack Sparrow.
  8. One of those films that takes up a potentially fascinating subject only to fumble it.
  9. A blood- freezing German thriller, a very stylish variation on "The Silence of the Lambs" and "Seven."
  10. The only feeling the character seems capable of is lust -- and when he hits on the male nurse looking after his newborn baby in the hospital, this hollow, unfunny "comedy" moves from merely tedious to nasty.
  11. Daring and unique, La Commune makes perfect viewing for the Fourth of July, which commemorates America's own revolution.
  12. Take "Thelma & Louise," throw in hot girl-girl sex and you have Gasoline, a flammable import from Italy directed by Monica Stambrini.
  13. It makes not just the "Thief of Baghdad" and the junky Ray Harryhausen movies of the '60s and '70s but even Disney's recent "Aladdin" seem positively multicultural by comparison.
  14. Along with co-writer Emmanuele Bernhein, Ozon...has crafted a contemplative blend of fantasy and reality that illuminates the mysteries of the creative process.
  15. It's so gosh-darned darling it almost turns your stomach.
  16. Pointless and mind-numbing.
  17. If you give yourself over to it, this romantic tale of a liberating one-night stand proves oddly seductive and generates a warm afterglow.
  18. It's really just about a bunch of pathetic losers whiling away the hours with their hands jammed down their pants.
  19. In place of elaborate sets, clever filmmaking gives the impression of a central London emptied of people and cars, to eerie effect - and this opening reel is nothing short of magnificent.
  20. Proudly airheaded, incoherent, endlessly pandering - yet fitfully entertaining.
  21. In an attempt to understand this phenomenon, Ziv interviews leaders of terrorist groups like Hamas, failed hit men now in jail and relatives of those who died carrying out these attacks. The effect is frightening.
  22. Gripping and thoughtful.
  23. Arguably the most insipid movie released so far this century.
  24. From the incessant rain that blurs the joyless Boston setting to the mysterious decision to make a brunette Hudson look as plain as possible, it's an evanescent fancy devoid of sparkle.
  25. Manages to build interest as it goes along, leading to a spectacular climactic battle with all those elephants.
  26. This messy, disappointing, self-important and utterly humorless version of the Marvel comic book character may be the toughest flick with a green protagonist to sit through since "The Grinch."
  27. There's style and panache to spare. Mournful jazz adds to the mood.
  28. A harmless celebration of idiocy that is the cinematic equivalent of an overeager, block-headed puppy chasing its tail.
  29. Some of the plot points are confusingly vague, the tone lurches wildly between genres, and the film's epilogue pushes the bounds of believability - but The Hard Word could never be accused of being predictable.
  30. Harmless, if slightly hyperactive, fun.
