  1. Friedkin turns on the juice and Jones and Jackson let it rip.
    • Rolling Stone
  2. Director Regis Warginer ("Indochine") lets his film degenerate into a turgid melodrama.
    • Rolling Stone
  3. A kickass documentary.
    • Rolling Stone
  4. It's a tall order that Tucci is not up to filling. But don't discount the pleasure of watching him try.
    • Rolling Stone
  5. This lively mess proves that when Toback loses his head, he does it with style.
    • Rolling Stone
  6. All the pieces hang together. You can't say that about many movies.
    • Rolling Stone
  7. Unique and unforgettable.
    • Rolling Stone
  8. Gorden teases out some affecting scenes, but not enough to carry a film that promises more than it delivers.
    • Rolling Stone
  9. Who needs iambic pentameter when you have Jet Li around?
    • Rolling Stone
  10. Outrageously, even shamelessly, entertaining.
    • Rolling Stone
  11. What DePalma has never made is a dull movie. Until now.
    • Rolling Stone
  12. Essentially an old-fashioned weepie gussied up for Y2K.
    • Rolling Stone
  13. Tries for deadpan laughs but is merely lifeless.
    • Rolling Stone
  14. This comedy is packed with p---- jokes, the cruder the better.
    • Rolling Stone
  15. Some movies are too good to miss. Judy Berlin is one of them...It works like magic.
    • Rolling Stone
  16. It bristles with the brute force he brought to 1986's underrated "52 Pick-Up."
    • Rolling Stone
  17. Michael Douglas digs deep and delivers one of his best performances in Wonder Boys -- a comic dazzler of roguish wit and touching gravity that is driven by characters, not jokes.
    • Rolling Stone
  18. Fierce, funny and vividly moving.
    • Rolling Stone
  19. The idea of the boiler room as a Y2K gladiator ring for disenfranchised youth provides a proactive new twist.
    • Rolling Stone
  20. The film falls short; only Peet goes the whole nine yards.
    • Rolling Stone
  21. Colorful and exciting, as far as it goes. But Boyle and Hodge pull back on their usual wit and grit.
    • Rolling Stone
  22. Elliot fails to make the needed connection between the audience and a peeper who has lost his moral balance.
    • Rolling Stone
  23. Just isn't enough.
    • Rolling Stone
  24. Irresistibly silly.
    • Rolling Stone
  25. A delicate gem.
  26. (Shelton) knows how to write pungent dialogue that covers a multitude of sins when the film goes off the rails.
    • Rolling Stone
  27. Taymor's visual and visceral flair makes Titus a grabber.
    • Rolling Stone
  28. The talented Mr. Minghella has made an imperfect movie but not an impersonal one. His morality tale means to get under the skin, and does.
    • Rolling Stone
  29. You won't forget the way Carrey transcends mere impersonation to find the roots of Andy's torment.
    • Rolling Stone
  30. A promise unfulfilled.
    • Rolling Stone
