  1. But even if The Cat's Meow is unsubtle and overlong, in its jaundiced way it convincingly captures a fascinating period in Hollywood history.
  2. An awkward hybrid of genres that just doesn't work.
  3. Easier to sit through than the typical, earnest Christian movie.
  4. A worthy addition to the cinematic canon, which, at last count, numbered 52 different versions.
  5. Viewers willing to accept the contrived plot at face value will find much to like.
  6. Pleasant and has not a few laughs.
  7. Rates an "E" for effort -- and a "B" for boring.
  8. The documentary's director, Arnon Goldfinger, may have had a chance of expanding on the limited audience for such a film if said clan, the Bursteins, exhibited either talent or likability.
  9. Elegantly photographed family saga that brims with period detail. Unfortunately, the underlying story is less than compelling,
  10. It's terribly predictable and often risible stuff.
  11. There are some decent jokes along the way. And none of the performances is bad. But they are limited by the script, which allows each character only one comic note.
  12. Much of the movie's gentle charm comes from Mehta, the director's younger brother, making his acting debut.
  13. This is the sort of low-grade dreck that usually goes straight to video -- with a lousy script, inept direction, pathetic acting, poorly dubbed dialogue and murky cinematography, complete with visible boom mikes.
  14. Middleton deals with the various male and female perspectives in an even-handed way, concocting a slice of New York life that's frothy as meringue pie.
  15. With heavy emphasis on cliché and stereotype, has at least four false endings -- and drags on for nearly two hours -- before it finally contrives to reunite its sitcomish pals for a last drink together.
  16. Qualifies as perfect family entertainment.
  17. If you've come to appreciate Hal Hartley's idiosyncratic style through films like "Flirt" and "The Unbelievable Truth," his take on the monster movie genre will intrigue you. But, ultimately, disappoint you.
  18. Looks great but moves like molasses, is more interesting than truly involving.
  19. Thanks to a superb performance by Isabelle Huppert, it's compulsively, gruesomely watchable.
  20. So off-the-wall that it may well ultimately acquire the cult status of Resnick's earlier Chris Elliot vehicle, "Cabin Boy."
  21. They may not have made another "Back to the Future," but to their credit, the makers of Clockstoppers don't patronize or underestimate their pre-teen audience nearly as much as has become customary.
  22. Acceptably diverting Saturday night at the movies, especially if you're willing to check your brains at the popcorn stand.
  23. Beyond-lame satire.
  24. Koteas and Ribisi, as two very different brothers, give realistic performances, and play off the differences brilliantly.
  25. Much sillier - and the movie's nearly two-hour running time seems to last nearly as long as a vampire's afterlife.
  26. Lee gives his childhood hero altogether too much face time to defend himself against the numerous allegations and charges of assault, both physical and sexual.
  27. Unoriginal but effective raunchy drag comedy.
  28. Strong contender for the weirdest movie released this year.
  29. Has some truly touching and funny moments. But it goes on for too long and bogs down in a surfeit of characters and unnecessary subplots.
  30. At once, a joyful celebration of female friendship and an unusually honest look at newly responsible young women wistfully saying goodbye to the dreams of their youth.
