  1. The Adventures of Rocky & Bullwinkle
    It's sledgehammer whimsy, and it's not talking to me.
    • Rolling Stone
  2. Little Black Book
    Here's a comedy of punishing tedium that pretends to be hip when it's so five minutes ago.
  3. Arthur
    Gordon, who died shortly after the first Arthur, never had to see the luckless 1988 sequel that made his beloved characters seem like strangers. The new Arthur, insipid when it should be infectious, leaves the same deadly impression.
  4. Against the Ropes
    Critics and audiences should unite to KO this loser.
  5. Biker Boyz
    Guy flicks can be just as galling as the chick variety. Here's Exhibit A in how to lose an audience in ten minutes.
  6. Abandon
    Crossing "A Beautiful Mind" with "Sex Kittens Go to College," first-time director Stephen Gaghan (he wrote Traffic) causes a head-on collision.
  7. A Man Apart
    It's a little early for self-parody in the career of Vin Diesel. But he's a calamitous cliché in A Man Apart.
  8. Employee of the Month
    I laughed once or twice during this flat and fatuous farce, mainly because director and co-writer Greg Coolidge lifted a lot of it from "Office Space."
  9. The Canyons
    Stephen Rodrick's New York Times article about the making of The Canyons had humor, suspense and propulsion. They should have made that movie. What we have here is dead on arrival.
  10. Space Jam: A New Legacy
    An exercise anchored to a likable LeBron charmfest, melding multiple forms of animation, recycled cartoon jokes, and the basic plot of the original Space Jam, but with a twist that updates the original for our new, streaming content century.
  11. Gone
    There's no thrill in Gone because you can see every surprise coming. It lies there flapping like a dying fish. Skip it.
  12. Body Shots
    Trash.
    • Rolling Stone
  13. Pan
    Joe Wright's origin story of Peter and the lost boys has to be the dimmest, deadliest take ever on J.M. Barrie's Pan myth.
  14. Righteous Kill
    Righteous Kill, a.k.a. The Al and Bob Show, is a cop flick with all the drama of "Law and Order: AARP." This movie defines drag-ass.
  15. Assassin's Creed
    By showing signs of intelligent life in a universe of diseased, digital drivel, Assassin's Creed stands above the herd of movies based on video games by default.
  16. Lady in the Water
    You leave Lady thinking there are still voices in Shyamalan's head well worth a listen.
  17. That Awkward Moment
    The compensation comes in the three lead actors, all way too good for the material dished out by writer-director Tom Gormican.
  18. Serena
    Audiences forced to endure the 109 coma-inducing minutes of Serena should bring an e-book or a soft pillow.
  19. Party Monster
    Feels fake, forced and indigestible.
  20. Runner Runner
    The actors hit the jackpot, but only in terms of their paychecks. The audience gets a tension-free, tight-assed, "Casino" ripoff that leaves them thoroughly fleeced.
  21. Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star
    Spade goes sweet and gooey. This is nucking futs.
  22. Lucy in the Sky
    It’s always a downer when talented artists pour everything they’ve got into a film that stubbornly refuses to come to life. That’s the case with Lucy in the Sky.
  23. The Watch
    Then there's the movie itself, which should be crazy, stupid fun but settles for just stupid.
    • 36 Metascore

    Sound of Freedom
    Apart from its relentless messaging, the movie is hobbled by a near-total absence of procedural logic.
  25. Action Point
    A few primo bits sneak through.... But mostly we’re watching the bawdy life being drained out of a once subversive franchise. Action Point is the first Jackass-related movie to play it safe. Now that is truly painful.
  26. Dumb and Dumber To
    The bad news isn’t that Carrey and Daniels got old, it's that the jokes did. The spirit is still willing in Peter and Bobby Farrelly, the original writer-directors, but the sagging flesh is weak from prolonged repetition.
  27. What Happens in Vegas
    If you don't see where this is going, you've never seen a movie. Sorry it had to be this one.
  28. The Pink Panther 2
    Martin is a gifted physical comic. He deserves an original role tailored to his own talents. Watching something this borrowed just makes me blue.
  29. Something Borrowed
    The half-star rating goes to John Krasinski for heroically rising above this vile dung heap of a movie.
  30. Stolen Summer
    Cringingly earnest, totally unremarkable fable.
