  1. Shooter
    Suspended over a deep gully of disbelief, where logic takes more bullets than the bad guys, Shooter still makes the grade as hard-ass action escapism.
  2. Annabelle Comes Home
    Annabelle Comes Home is not out to reinvent the wheel, or to even rotate the franchise tires. It may not leave you petrified to the core, but it won’t you leave angry, and in this, the Summer of Our Perpetual Disastrous Sequel, that’s no small feat.
  3. Robin Hood
    What this Robin Hood lacks in fun it makes up for in epic sweep.
  4. RocknRolla
    RocknRolla is a kickass crime drama that just doesn't know to quit while it's ahead.
  5. The Mauritanian
    Kevin Macdonald’s drama is determined to put a name and a face to the legion of largely anonymous casualties of the War on Terror — not the victims of attacks, but the other ones, i.e. mostly Middle Eastern men who, by some circumstantial evidence, slivers of association or maybe just their nationality, became wards of the state held in a perpetual purgatory.
  6. Imaginary Heroes
    What the movie damagingly lacks is a personality of its own.
  7. Multiplicity
    By the fourth clone, played as a babbling simpleton, Keaton has exhausted the gimmick and the audience. I’d trade a dozen Dougs for one Beetlejuice.
  8. Aladdin
    That the movie itself is a treat, beyond its good intentions, is icing on the cake, though clichés and ethnic stereotyping still sneak in.
  9. Piranha 3-D
    Piranha 3D ends the summer on a note of shamelessly entertaining B movie bottomfeeding.
  10. John Dies at the End
    Coscarelli junkies won't be bothered by the film's herky-jerky rhythms. Go for the freaky fun of it, though a little soy sauce on the side sure wouldn't hurt.
  11. Emancipation
    Emancipation is not better off for laying any claim to the actual man that it purports to be about. It is a historically dubious, morally incurious piece of genre fare that satisfies as entertainment and not much else. Pure Hollywood heroism.
  12. Ma
    So it’s a kick to see Spencer dig into the title role in Ma, a Blumhouse scarefest that tries but rarely lives up to the irresistible dynamo at its center.
  13. Jungleland
    We sing O’Connell’s praises so loudly because he’s really the only reason to check out Max Winkler’s tale of blood bonds, brotherly love and bloody bareknuckle bouts, and to remind you that sometimes, even the best and brightest can’t save something so banal and by-the-book.
  14. Vanity Fair
    In an effort to blend Thackeray and "Sex and the City," Vanity Fair ends up nowhere.
  15. De-Lovely
    At its best, De-Lovely evokes a time, a place and a sound with stylish wit and sophistication.
  16. Johnny Suede
    There's no denying the kick of Pitt's memorably offbeat performance and writer-director Tom DiCillo's stylish debut.
  17. Palindromes
    Solondz likes to put the screws to moral hypocrisy. As always, he goes too far. As always, you don't want to look away.
  18. Narrow Margin
    This is vintage B-movie material, and if you really want to catch a vintage B movie that uses the material effectively, try the original 1952 version of the same name.
  19. Amateur
    Amateur is Hartley heaven, a sharp-witted thriller that takes off into dark and uncharted territory.
  20. Hamlet
    This big-screen Hamlet, pumped up to operatic scale by overkill director Franco Zeffirelli, exposes Gibson's shortcomings.
  21. We Are Marshall
    No go. Marshall deserved better than this misbegotten tribute.
  22. The Phantom
    Zane, a good actor in the right circumstances (Orlando, Dead Calm), is trapped by screenwriter Jeffrey Boam (Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade) and Australian director Simon Wincer (Free Willy), who don’t give him anything to act.
  23. She's the One
    Enough Burns pungency remains for She’s the One to qualify as a setback, not a drop into quicksand.
  24. The Amazing Spider-Man 2
    Things go wrong quickly with Amazing 2. Am I the only one who hates the word Amazing to describe a movie that isn't? Just asking. If I had to pinpoint where this epic goes south, I'd start with the tonal shifts.
  25. Focus
    No denying the relevance of the tale.
  26. ABCD
    In this funny, touching and haunting film, Patel cuts through stereotypes to show the hard truths of straddling two cultures.
  27. Enemy at the Gates
    Any flaws in execution pale against those moments when the film brings history to vital life.
  28. Free State of Jones
    Like the worst civics lesson, this movie bores away at you till your reactions are dulled.
  29. Sharp Stick
    What makes Dunham’s art worth watching is what makes so much of it feel like a gamble. It invites projection.
  30. A Good Woman
    Hunt's flat delivery is mercilessly cruel to Wilde's delicious epigrams. That sound you hear is Oscar spinning madly in his grave.
