  1. A devastating indictment of unbridled greed and materalism, made all the more relevant by the Enron and WorldCom scandals.
  2. When the Powerpuff Girls blink those soulful dinner-plate peepers, you could forgive them anything - even their movie's wafer-thin excuse for a plot.
  3. If you like your language blue and your humor coarse, Margaret Cho is for you.
  4. The film is almost worth seeing just for the extraordinary scene in which a stark naked Mortimer has her movie star lover (Dermot Mulroney) deliver an exhaustive critique of her body's flaws.
  5. Psst! Wanna vicariously experience a consciousness-raising LSD trip and watch Sarah Michelle Gellar star in some explicit sex scenes?
  6. Indulgent, tedious documentary.
  7. The story is also engaging and hip enough to make it a far easier sit for parents. And it's hard not to like a hero who takes public transportation to a showdown with the bad guy.
  8. Sporadically funny, dumbed-down version.
  9. The movie, directed by Mick Jackson, leaves no cliché unturned, from the predictable plot to the characters straight out of central casting.
  10. I laughed harder at Pumpkin than at any other film I've seen this year -- but be warned: This dark campus comedy is not for all tastes, or probably even most tastes.
  11. Weatherford and Murphy lead a young and bright cast. All in all, Money Buys Happiness shows that Lachow is a director worth keeping an eye on.
  12. It's all so insincere, you can almost imagine the filmmakers rubbing their hands together at the prospect of ripping off the public.
  13. Lacking quite the zip and zing of "Run Lola Run," this lively indie tale of a drug deal gone awry could be alternately titled "Walk Fast Bobby Walk Fast."
  14. Far more interesting and intelligent than anything coming out of the studios. It fairly brims with superb performances by a terrific cast - you simply can't take your eyes off the female leads, Edie Falco and Angela Bassett.
  15. The film - dimly lit and with an ominous soundtrack that verges on overkill - is largely a showcase for the heavy-lidded Renner.
  16. Kicks off with an inauspicious premise, mopes through a dreary tract of virtually plotless meanderings and then ends with a whimper.
  17. A heart-pounding experience that makes you think and contains a gallery of characters that will haunt your nightmares for years to come.
  18. Drawing inspiration from anime and vintage Looney Toons, this beautifully drafted, offbeat charmer is hip, funny - and a bona fide heart tugger for the whole family.
  19. A misleadingly bland title for a gripping documentary.
  20. The character of ZigZag is not sufficiently developed to support a film constructed around him.
  21. Gets pinned down in a barrage of schmaltz, cliché, stereotype and racial condescension - not to mention a historically dubious premise.
  22. Infused with the hazy golden glow of nostalgia and unfolds at a leisurely pace, reminiscent of "The Virgin Suicides."
  23. Alan Taylor ("Palookaville"), an American, directs with a playful touch, and Denmark's Hjejle is far more assured acting in English here than she was in "High Fidelity."
  24. A lean, deftly shot, well-acted, weirdly retro thriller that recalls a raft of '60s and '70s European-set spy pictures. There are even moments when you hope it could turn into a modern "Charade."
  25. See it only for Paul Bettany's performance.
  26. This excruciating adaptation of the innocuous '70s cartoon show makes the film version of "Josie and the Pussycats" look sophisticated by comparison.
  27. While the performances are often engaging, this loose collection of largely improvised numbers would probably have worked better as a one-hour TV documentary.
  28. Contains all the clichés of the post-prison genre -- but it has some redeeming qualities.
  29. There is much more suspense in this sequence than a similar scene in last week's "The Sum of All Fears" -- which wasn't intended to be funny.
  30. Behind the glitz, Hollywood is sordid and disgusting. Quelle surprise!
