  1. An uplifting, crowd-pleasing film in the tradition of "The Full Monty" that could easily win Oscar nominations for both its 11-year-old star, Jamie Bell, and first-time director, Stephen Daldry.
    • New York Post
  2. Atrociously written.
  3. The dramatic history of the Soviet space program deserves a far more competent documentary than this amateurish Dutch production.
  4. Generic memoir of lower-middle-class "white ethnic" life in the '50s.
  5. Predictable, rarely scary.
  6. Has its moments, but overall the effect is uneven.
    • New York Post
  7. One
    A rare dud in the Shooting Gallery series.
  8. Excellent performances in an entertaining if less than totally plausible story.
    • New York Post
  9. Should you get Carter? Sure - but make it the Michael Caine classic Warner Bros. is releasing on video next week.
    • New York Post
  10. A charming, (mostly) briskly unsentimental love story, written, directed and acted with remarkable assurance.
  11. Crippled by lame storytelling.
  12. Presents an intelligent, profound and at times heartrending slice of Taiwanese middle-class existence - as seen by characters at different stages of life.
  13. It's actually the surprisingly compelling plot and the often hilarious dialogue that keep you watching this tale of passion and murder in a Samurai militia unit - not the beautiful scenery or the elegant color palette.
    • New York Post
  14. After the monster is subdued, then there's a much less humorous, and more mindlessly violent second half.
    • New York Post
  15. Lee's incendiary and brilliant new film.
    • New York Post
  16. Part sitcom, part comedy of manners - but it lacks the courage to deal honestly with class and ethnicity.
  17. A powerful fable about love and addiction that manages to be darkly humorous when it isn't graphic or harrowing in the extreme.
  18. There's 80 minutes of mawkish, overacted melodrama - laced with gratuitous violence and profanity - before we get to anything more than the briefest snippet of a dance number.
    • New York Post
  19. Refreshing and surprising, the way independent movies are supposed to be.
    • New York Post
  20. Turns out to be a choppily written, unevenly acted exercise, no less shlocky and predictable than any of Hollywood's average second-string heterosexual comedies.
  21. There's something oddly endearing about the Barenaked Ladies. And by the end of the movie, you begin to see just what it is that inspires such intense fan loyalty.
  22. A civics lesson about integration very artfully - and entertainingly - disguised as an upbeat family sports movie.
  23. Rarely does a movie go so thoroughly wrong in so many ways.
    • New York Post
  24. The labor of love of South African brothers Craig and Damon Foster, who directed and photographed this intriguing documentary.
  25. I was laughing so hard, tears were streaming down my cheeks.
    • New York Post
  26. A worthwhile choice in a crowded marketplace.
    • New York Post
  27. Elaborate vanity production.
  28. Lame spoof.
  29. A brave but ultimately futile attempt at adapting a piece that is so quintessentially theatrical that it defies translation to another medium.
    • New York Post
  30. You cease to care as they fall back on a catalogue of clichéd shocks, tired camera angles and an ever-mounting gore quotient.
