  1. East Is East
    East Is East is "The Full Monty" of 2000, a fresh, funny and poignant film filled with sparkling performances.
    • New York Post
  2. Est - Ouest
    The movie that deserved to win the Oscar for foreign-language film, and one of the best movies ever made about life behind the Iron Curtain.
    • New York Post
  3. Southpaw
    Does not offer much in the way of exciting boxing footage.
    • New York Post
  4. The Filth and the Fury
    This bizarre, original and brilliantly crafted documentary about the Sex Pistols is funny and at times moving -- despite all the ugliness and stupidity it depicts.
    • New York Post
  5. Joe Gould's Secret
    An elegant, quietly comical but slightly constricted period piece whose stately pace is all but offset by several impressive performances.
  6. Rules of Engagement
    As mechanical and predictable as a cuckoo clock, it shouldn't work half as well as it does.
  7. Return to Me
    The cinematic equivalent of meat loaf -- comfort food that's reassuring in its utter lack of sophistication and surprises.
  8. Ready to Rumble
    Has its moments of interest, including two excruciating vocals by Arquette and Caan -- and a George Clinton score that contains a theme eerily similar to that of "American Beauty."
  9. Black and White
    At heart a cliché-strewn melodrama about a bunch of white, upper-class Manhattan kids who aspire to ghetto culture.
    • New York Post
  10. Price of Glory
    Price of Glory isn't an embarrassment on the order of the last major boxing movie, "Play It to the Bone," but it's not especially worth intercepting on its way to the video racks.
  11. The Road to El Dorado
    Ends up taking enough detours to keep DreamWorks' latest animated epic from striking cinematic gold.
  12. Beau Travail
    So minimalist in characterization and dialogue that the plot all but evaporates -- and so does any dramatic power.
    • New York Post
  13. High Fidelity
    The quirky High Fidelity really deserves being called the first must-see movie of the century.
    • New York Post
  14. Here on Earth
    Hokey, inept tear-jerker.
    • New York Post
  15. Waking the Dead
    Structurally flawed, occasionally shlocky, but written with unusual intelligence and subtlety.
  16. The Color of Paradise
    Doesn't have the emotional heft of his "Children of Paradise," but it's still moving.
    • New York Post
  17. Such a Long Journey
    An unusually well-written and satisfying multilayered drama that conveys the feel of urban India with more vivid accuracy than anything made in the subcontinent in recent years.
  18. Buddy Boy
    First-time writer-director Mark Hanlon lands only glancing blows in this grim black comedy.
  19. All I Wanna Do
    You have to sit through 90 minutes that feel like three hours.
    • New York Post
  20. X
    Ignore the furiously overplotted, headache-inducing story -- derived from a series of comic books -- and focus on the exquisitely drawn Japanese animation.
  21. Whatever It Takes
    An assembly-line high-school comedy that flunks miserably in all three subjects.
  22. Winter Sleepers
    A cold, emptily stylish exercise -- and one that sorely lacks the speed and vigor that made "Lola" run.
  23. Erin Brockovich
    The kind of stand-up-and-cheer movie Hollywood is supposed to have forgotten how to make.
    • New York Post
  24. Beyond the Mat
    Doesn't shy from the ugly side, though it's far from the no-holds-barred exposé being touted in the ads.
    • New York Post
  25. Babymother
    Writer-director Julian Henriquez does a great job staging the lively musical numbers.
  26. Final Destination
    OK premise quickly deteriorates into a silly, badly acted slasher movie -- minus the slasher.
    • New York Post
  27. Soft Fruit
    Honest but also derivative and crude.
  28. Les convoyeurs attendent
    Delightfully quirky.
  29. The Disappearance of Finbar
    Part of the problem is that the Finbar character is both underdeveloped and unattractive - you don't get a sense of why anyone would miss him, let alone go searching for him in the snow. [17 Mar 2000]
    • New York Post
  30. Mission to Mars
    It features well-below-par writing, acting, direction, special effects and music, while oozing a nauseating New Age sentimentality that undermines any tension in the underlying story.
