  1. Chloe
    I didn't believe a word of it.
  2. How to Train Your Dragon
    Works enough miracles of 3-D animation to charm your socks off.
  3. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
    This dynamite thriller shivers with suspense. So if you ignore The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo) because it's in Swedish with English subtitles, you probably deserve the remake Hollywood will surely screw up.
  4. Greenberg
    See this darkly comic character study unburdened by preconceptions.
  5. The Runaways
    Say what you will about the Runaways – they never played it safe. The movie does.
  6. City Island
    A warmly hilarious movie about family members and their secret hearts.
  7. She's Out of My League
    A rowdy blast because the spiky young cast treats the played-out script like virgin territory. That's acting!
  8. Green Zone
    Miller's wake-up call is meant to be ours. Too little and too late? Maybe. But even in this Bourne Zone, Damon and Greengrass haven't shirked their duty to enlighten and entertain.
  9. Remember Me
    The brooding RPatz doesn’t bite. But his movie does.
  10. Alice in Wonderland
    Still, even Disney and a PG rating can't bury Burton's subversive wit. Like Carroll, he's a master at dressing up psychic wounds in fantasy.
  11. Brooklyn's Finest
    Simultaneously full of itself and full of sh--, Brooklyn's Finest is a cop movie so shallow, dumb, derivative and infuriating that it feels like a parody of bad cop movies.
  12. Cop Out
    If you're like me, diluted Smith is still better than no Smith at all.
  13. A Prophet
    A new crime classic.
  14. Shutter Island
    DiCaprio, in his most haunting and emotionally complex performance yet, is the vessel Scorsese uses to lead us through the film’s laby­rinth.
  15. The Ghost Writer
    All credit to a finely tuned Brosnan for packing so much intensity and wayward wit into his scenes with McGregor. Their verbal duels make for a dazzling game of cat-and-mouse.
  16. The Wolfman
    What have you done to The Wolfman, Hollywood? It’s got no kick to it. No fun either. And no real scares, which is more unforgivable.
  17. Valentine's Day
    Valentine's Day is a date movie from hell.
  18. From Paris with Love
    Has no vital signs at all, just crushing dull repetition that makes one noisy, violent scene play exactly like the last one.
  19. Dear John
    As for the ladies who think any kind of chick flick is preferable to football, be careful what you wish for.
  20. Edge of Darkness
    Gibson's acting has deepened. Too bad his comeback vehicle springs so many leaks.
  21. Saint John of Las Vegas
    First-time director and screenwriter Hue Rhodes shows no discernible talent for dialogue, humor and, especially, pacing.
  22. Creation
    This one means well, a kiss-of-death review if there ever was one.
  23. The Book of Eli
    The Book of Eli isn't as exciting or funny or inspiring as it wants and needs to be, and its preachy ending is an ordeal. But Washington, a movie star who can act, is one cool dude who is worth following anywhere.
  24. Fish Tank
    While you're remembering new high-impact names, add Arnold. In only her second film, after 2006's "Red Road," she keeps the screen filled to bursting with the beauty and raw terror of life.
  25. 44 Inch Chest
    There's a difference between exposing misogyny and crassly exploiting it.
  26. Daybreakers
    Daybreakers, despite the star presence of Ethan Hawke and Willem Dafoe, is a B movie, with all the disreputable low rent, lowbrow pleasures that implies. I'll take that over pompous any day.
  27. Youth in Revolt
    It's a bitch telling a coming-of-age story minus clichés and sappiness. So Youth in Revolt, with Michael Cera in his best performance yet, is a small miracle.
  28. Crazy on the Outside
    Allen screws up his directing debut with a script that smothers his wit in a blanket of bland.
  29. The White Ribbon
    This haunting film never pushes itself on you. It trusts you to suss out the horror that lies beneath the veneer of innocence. You'll be knocked for a loop.
  30. Sherlock Holmes
    Ritchie is all about the whooshing and headbanging, leaving no space between Holmes' words to savor their meaning. Downey is irresistible. The movie, not so much.
