  1. Dogma
    The first commandment of Dogma: Thou shalt not stop laughing.
    • Rolling Stone
  2. Anywhere But Here
    Formula mother-brat stuff...It's only the deft teamwork of Portman and Sarandon that keeps the triteness at bay.
    • Rolling Stone
  3. The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc
    For the 148 minutes it takes "The Messenger" to deliver its message, being John Malkovich or Milla Jovovich is really no fun at all.
    • Rolling Stone
  4. The Bone Collector
    Abandon all hope of logic, you who enter here.
    • Rolling Stone
  5. The Insider
    With it's dynamite performances, strafing wit and dramatic provocation, The Insider offers Mann at his best -- blood up, unsanitized and unbowed.
    • Rolling Stone
  6. Man of the Century
    A lighter-than-air comedy than runs on pure fizz.
    • Rolling Stone
  7. Music of the Heart
    If "Mr. Holland's Opus" made you puke, you'd better bring a bucket to this true-life weepie about the importance of teaching music in schools.
    • Rolling Stone
  8. Being John Malkovich
    The crazy-ass imagination at work in Being John Malkovich hits you like a blast of pure oxygen...this movie of constant astonishments will make you laugh hard and long.
    • Rolling Stone
  9. Three to Tango
    The kind of movie that TV stars do when they're on hiatus and trying to squeeze one in.
    • Rolling Stone
  10. Body Shots
    Trash.
    • Rolling Stone
  11. Crazy in Alabama
    Somehow, Lucille's plight is meant to comment astutely on the civil-rights movement. Now that IS crazy.
    • Rolling Stone
  12. The Best Man
    Charmer of a comedy.
    • Rolling Stone
  13. Bringing Out the Dead
    Cage, who gives a blazing, imposive performance, uses his haunted eyes to reveal the emotional scars that Frank can't heal.
    • Rolling Stone
  14. The Story of Us
    Turns into a bogus drivel courtesy of a sitcom monster.
    • Rolling Stone
  15. The Straight Story
    Lynch takes us on a journey of shattering understatement -- a remarkable accomplishment.
    • Rolling Stone
  16. Fight Club
    Pulls you in, challenges your prejudices, rocks your world and leaves you laughing in the face of an abyss. It's alive, all right. It's also an uncompromising American classic.
    • Rolling Stone
  17. Random Hearts
    Even a search party would be hard-pressed to find a spark between Harrison Ford and Kristin Scott Thomas in Pollack's latest tear-jerker.
    • Rolling Stone
  18. The Limey
    A mesmerizing mood piece.
    • Rolling Stone
  19. Superstar
    No dice...But no apologies are needed for Shannon--she earns her star spot.
    • Rolling Stone
  20. Boys Don't Cry
    A shockingly intimate and deeply affecting film about the roots of sexual role playing.
    • Rolling Stone
  21. Happy, Texas
    Keeps the laughs coming, and a dynamo named Steve Zahn is the cheif reason why. It's a one-joke movie, but the cast knows how to sell it.
    • Rolling Stone
  22. Three Kings
    When it comes to rousing action, whip-smart laughs and moral uplift that doesn't pump sunshine up your ass, Three Kings rules.
    • Rolling Stone
  23. Double Jeopardy
    Judd is slumming again in ths lame suspense yarn that could barely pass as a TV quickie without the bankable names of Judd, Tommy Lee Jones and director Bruce Beresford.
    • Rolling Stone
  24. Mumford
    A fine case ... but none weighty enough to keep this fluff from evaporating as you watch it.
    • Rolling Stone
  25. Jakob the Liar
    The self-congratulatory histrionics of Williams, lower lip trembling as he triumphs over torture in the name of the human spirit, represents a trend in Hollywood to make accessible melodrama out of unspeakable tragedy.
    • Rolling Stone
  26. Guinevere
    Offers something magical in the haunting and hypnotic performance of Sarah Polley...(the film) cuts deep.
    • Rolling Stone
  27. Sugar Town
    Never adds up to anything more substantial than shrewd observations. There's no dramatic core.
    • Rolling Stone
  28. Romance
    A cheerless exercise.
    • Rolling Stone
  29. For Love of the Game
    Plays like an unholy union of "The Natural" and "The Prince of Tides." Too bad...Build a movie as a shrine to baseball and they will come. Suckers!
    • Rolling Stone
  30. Breakfast of Champions
    Quite a spectacle, but the movie falls flat.
    • Rolling Stone
