  1. 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.
  2. Proudly airheaded, incoherent, endlessly pandering - yet fitfully entertaining.
  3. 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.
  4. Gripping and thoughtful.
  5. Arguably the most insipid movie released so far this century.
  6. 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.
  7. Manages to build interest as it goes along, leading to a spectacular climactic battle with all those elephants.
  8. 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."
  9. There's style and panache to spare. Mournful jazz adds to the mood.
  10. A harmless celebration of idiocy that is the cinematic equivalent of an overeager, block-headed puppy chasing its tail.
  11. 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.
  12. Harmless, if slightly hyperactive, fun.
  13. There's little action in this snail-paced bore, you'll need a high-powered magnifying glass to spot the comedy and the "buddies" have about as much chemistry as a pair of wet socks.
  14. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. That about sums up the amazing story of Edith Hahn Beer, an Austrian Jew who survived the Holocaust by passing herself off as Aryan.
  15. Wait for the video, then fast-forward through every scene except the ones featuring Maria Mironova as a cheating wife.
  16. Dull and creaky soap opera.
  17. A leisurely, scene-setting start, peppered with authentic banter and winning localized humor, fleshes out the characters in Manito so well you feel as if you live alongside them.
  18. An alarmingly unfunny French comedy where the two main characters are constantly yakking on a cell phone at an airport.
  19. A toothless, dated Seventh Avenue satire with shaky script, direction and acting - is the movie equivalent of something you'd find on the deep-markdown rack at Daffy's.
  20. Wildly uneven romantic drama.
  21. Its "I see dead people" premise is shopworn, but Hong Kong brothers Oxide and Danny Pang manage to deliver real skin-prickling jolts with their minimalist horror film.
  22. A lark for anyone who's willing to check their brains at the concession stand for 100 minutes.
  23. An excellent way to teach children that movies don't begin and end with Hollywood blockbusters.
  24. Filmmakers Sam Green and Bill Siegel tend to shy from tough questions, allowing their subjects to wax nostalgic about bomb-throwing as yet another youthful folly of the '70s. That's tougher to swallow than some boomers' claims they didn't inhale.
  25. Plays like a bad daytime soap opera. The acting is amateurish. Ditto the uninspired script (continuity? what's that?) and direction.
  26. The leaden pacing, somnambulant performances and incessant symbolism in nearly every shot will soon have you thinking that The Three Marias is three too many.
  27. Low-end schlock that will likely land with a dull thud in the video remainder bin before the frost is on the pumpkin.
  28. An unforgettable and complex portrait of a nuclear family in meltdown.
  29. Watching The Italian Job in a theater makes you long for a fast-forward button - to skip past 90 eyeball-glazing minutes of generic caper plotting and cut to the chase, as it were.
  30. Summer hasn't even started, but you won't likely find a better catch this season than Finding Nemo, a dazzling, computer-animated fish tale with a funny, touching script and wonderful voice performances that make it an unqualified treat for all ages.
