  1. The Twilight Saga: New Moon
    Ever since "True Blood" glamoured me, Twilight seems even more sexless and toothless. I prefer my undead with a little life in them.
  2. Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps
    Maybe money never sleeps, but this missed opportunity of a movie will have audiences dozing.
  3. The Emoji Movie
    Before the jacked-up antics get to be too much, director Tony Leondis and co-writers Erich Siegel and Mike White get in a few satiric licks at a technology we've all come to call home.
  4. Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows
    So the sequel, A Game of Shadows, is more of the stupid same. It wouldn't matter so much if Downey and Jude Law, as the bromantic Dr. Watson, didn't look so ready to turn on the cerebral dazzle. Instead, Ritchie treats them like action goons out of his "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" basement.
  5. Buried
    Ninety minutes of being buried alive with Ryan Reynolds: Didn't we all suffer that in "The Proposal"?
  6. X-Men Origins: Wolverine
    It's all a jumble and, worse, a damned impersonal one.
  7. Fever Pitch
    The movie is so soggy and anonymous, I had to remind myself that the Farrelly brothers, Peter and Bobby, directed it. It's sad to watch the kingpins of gross-out try to dial down to cute. Swung at and missed.
  8. Only God Forgives
    Where "Drive" shrewdly mystifies, Only God Forgives stupefies. You can see its gears grinding. But I'll always hang on for a rare talent like Refn. Even when he stumbles, he leaves you eager to see what he's up to next.
  9. Diamonds
    Isn't much of a movie, but it's worth a look just to see screen legend Kirk Douglas, Michael's eighty-three-year-old father, kick ass.

  10. The Adam Project
    The movie starts out desperately wanting to be E.T. It ends by pretending it’s the second coming of Field of Dreams.
  11. At First Sight
    May be only loosely true, but it is thoroughly Hollywood.
  12. 27 Dresses
    So flimsy it gives froth a bad name.
  13. The Art of Racing in the Rain
    When the movie stalls, it’s Enzo to the rescue. Since the film covers a decade in the lives of its characters, two dogs take turns playing Enzo, at age 2 and 9. They’re both picks of the litters. And Ventimiglia contributes an emotional honesty that serves him well even when the plot sinks into marshmallow.
  14. Greed
    You’re left to wonder whether you’ve watched a freshman college course with laughs, or a failed comedy with a lecture surgically grafted on to it.
  15. Carnage
    The film version of Carnage hasn't just lost God from its title, it's lost the laughs from the play that brought it life.
  16. Oh, Hi!
    No one would consider Oh, Hi! a failure. But you’ll be tempted to say byyyyyeeeeee more than once before this couple’s final bow.
  17. Minions
    The questions is: Can the minions carry a movie all by their mischievous mini-selves? 'Fraid not. This origin story, while being utterly harmless and far from despicable, wears out its welcome way too soon.
  18. The Next Best Thing
    Essentially an old-fashioned weepie gussied up for Y2K.
    • Rolling Stone
  19. Red Sparrow
    A punishingly long (133 minutes), shamelessly shallow downer that makes the mistake of taking itself oh-so-seriously. Big mistake.
  20. Confessions of a Shopaholic
    Confessions is no more than a painless time-waster. But the beguiling Fisher is well worth the investment.
  21. The Beekeeper
    By the time a final showdown snaps your suspension of disbelief and suggests there are bigger hornet’s nests to kick, The Beekeeper has crept out of the realm of pulpy B-movie thrills and falls just short of being a Bee movie dabbling in deep-state paranoia-mongering.
  22. Them That Follow
    The swerve into bizarre melodrama in the final third knocks the film permanently off course, reducing a potentially rich examination of religious extremism into a missed opportunity.
  23. Chloe
    I didn't believe a word of it.
  24. Bullet Train
    The amount of casual charisma and commitment Pitt is bringing to this is the one thing that actually differentiates this from being just another stylishly lit, stupid-hip snarkfest.
  25. Anthropoid
    Of all the World War II movies about the plots to kill the architects of the Third Reich, Anthropoid is guilty of being the dullest.
  26. The Last Full Measure
    Robinson means to leave you in tears, no matter how heavy-handed his approach. But the sentimental ending that suggests all loose ends have been tied up does a disservice to the battle ahead and a war still to be won in the name of the people left to pick up the pieces.
  27. Alfie
    The only touch of Caine's brutal sexiness is in the thrilling songs by Mick Jagger and Dave Stewart that should win Sir Mick his first Oscar. The rest is marshmallow.
  28. Big Momma's House
    How special.
    • Rolling Stone
  29. 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.
  30. Catch Me If You Can
    What begins brightly gets bogged down over 140 minutes. A film that took off like a hare on speed ends like a winded tortoise.
