  1. The Amityville Horror
    Result? It's not scary, just busy.
  2. House of D
    The film looks and feels authentic, but Duchovny has powered his undeniably personal journey with a counterfeit heart.
  3. 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.
  4. Sahara
    McConaughey, despite alarmingly orange makeup, does justice to the role, a hard-drinking, shipwreck- hunting senator's son with a 007 way with the ladies.
  5. 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.
  6. Kung Fu Hustle
    Does the plot spin out of control? You bet. But dumb fun this smart is a gift.
  7. Sin City
    The worst thing I can say about this savage, sexy and ferociously funny screen translation of three stories from Frank Miller's Sin City series of graphic novels is that it's too much of a good thing.
  8. Control
    It's the whooshing terror that fries your nerves to a frazzle. Antal's control never falters.
  9. Look at Me
    This bonbon spiked with malice is a triumph for Jaoui, who takes witty and wounding measure of the small betrayals that leave bruises on us all.
  10. Oldboy
    As always with Park Chanwook, you just hold on and let him rip.
  11. Guess Who
    Guess what? It's almost bearable.
  12. D.E.B.S.
    You might think there's no downside to a movie that peeks up the skirts of babes in micro-minis, but writer-director Angela Robinson's dimwitted satire is libido-killing proof to the contrary.
  13. Mondovino
    If "Sideways" made you curious about vino, this fierce, funny and challenging doc opens up a world worth debating.
  14. The Ring Two
    You have to admire Nakata's skill at letting the dead run free while hinting that we may have more to fear from the living. With a braver step in that direction, this middling movie would ring more than box-office bells.
  15. Melinda and Melinda
    With Melinda and Melinda he's (Allen) not just going through the motions. He's saying the game isn't over before you laugh till it hurts.
  16. Hostage
    Take a tired formula...Stir with a director, Florent Siri, who has no shame about stealing every sadistic suspense trick from the Die Hard series. Serve to a gullible audience willing to pay top dollar for secondhand goods.
  17. The Upside of Anger
    A fiercely funny human comedy with jokes that sting and leave marks.
  18. Mail Order Wife
    It looks like a documentary...Don't let anyone tell you more.
  19. Don't Move
    The film is a mesmerizing erotic odyssey given gravity and heart by Cruz.
  20. Off the Map
    The funny and heartbreaking Off the Map, directed with a poet's eye and a keen ear for nuance by Campbell Scott, resonates with something rare in today's movies: simplicity.
  21. Be Cool
    You know a sequel isn't working when, ten minutes into the movie, a voice inside your head starts screaming, "Please make it stop!"
  22. The Jacket
    Though shot for maximum moodiness by the gifted Peter Deming ("Mulholland Drive"), the movie straps you in for a head trip that promises hallucinatory wonders but delivers the same old Hollywood formula with sugar on top.
  23. The Pacifier
    It just plain sucks.
  24. Dear Frankie
    What could have been a sentimental train wreck emerges as a funny and touching portrait of three bruised people.
  25. Gunner Palace
    A riveting and indispensable record of the war in Iraq because it comes from the men who lived it.
  26. The Best of Youth
    The acting is electric. By the end of this haunting, hypnotic film, you feel you have watched lives being lived, not just imagined.
  27. Constantine
    The choice for the uninitiated is simple: Take the ride for its fitful thrills and dark elements, or just say the hell with it.
  28. Bride & Prejudice
    Lightweight but utterly beguiling.
  29. Hitch
    Will Smith has an easy charm, and this labored romantic farce works it hard. Too hard.
  30. Inside Deep Throat
    The film goes beyond historical anecdotes. Besides fresh and funny insights from the likes of Norman Mailer and John Waters, it shows how little censorship politics have changed from Nixon to Bush.
