  1. Mr. Brooks
    Listen to me: trash can surprise you. So don't get all elitist about the so-called cheap thrills in Mr. Brooks.
  2. Crazy Love
    For those who don't believe that truth trumps fiction for whacked-out depravity, mark this shockingly fierce and funny spellbinder as Exhibit A.
  3. Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End
    The good news first: Keith Richards totally rocks it playing pirate daddy to Johnny Depp's Capt. Jack Sparrow. The deep rumble of his voice and those hooded eyes that narrowly open like the creaky gates of hell make him what the rest of this three-peat is not: authentically scary...So what's the bad news? Richards is onscreen for barely two minutes.
  4. Angel-A
    What nearly saves the movie, besides the Rasmussen eye candy, is Paris itself, shot in shimmering black-and-white by the gifted Thierry Arbogast. Talk is cheap here, and often inane, but as a silent film, Angel-A could have been magic.
  5. Paprika
    Fiercely provocative, Paprika shames Hollywood’s use of animation as a kiddie pacifier.
  6. Shrek the Third
    There's no disguising the fact that Shrek the Third has come down with a bad case of sequelitis. You know the symptoms: Lots of razzle-dazzle to distract from the hole at the center of the story. You know, the place where fresh ideas should be.
  7. Severance
    Director and co-writer Christopher Smith, mischievously blending "The Office" with "Friday the 13th," keeps things fierce and funny enough to give Steve Carell ideas.
  8. Once
    It's a magical, beguiling wonder.
  9. 28 Weeks Later
    Hold on for a hell of a ride.
  10. Away from Her
    All the acting is first-rate -- Dukakis gives major dimensions to a supporting role. And Christie, a Sixties screen goddess in "Darling" and "Doctor Zhivago," shows that her spirit and grace are eternal. She's a beauty. So is the movie.
  11. Spider-Man 3
    There are delicious bits aplenty in Spider-Man 3 for those who care to notice.
  12. Waitress
    This sweetheart of a comedy boasts a hilarious and heartfelt performance by Keri Russell.
  13. Hot Fuzz
    It's a blast.
  14. Fracture
    Just because a movie is freakin' preposterous doesn't mean it can't be diabolical fun. Case in point: Fracture.
  15. Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters
    To call the animation crude would be high praise. But they succeed enough of the time to make a perversely entertaining movie.
  16. Perfect Stranger
    A dull, dumb and unforgivably dated thriller, free of thrills and any kind of perfection.
  17. Lonely Hearts
    The intensity of Leto and Hayek goes deeper than the script into revealing what makes these two sociopaths in heat impervious to bloody murder. When Hayek and Leto are onscreen, you do not look away.
  18. Disturbia
    Cool stuff. Cool movie.
  19. Grindhouse
    By stooping low without selling out, this babes-and-bullets tour de force gets you high on movies again.
  20. The Hoax
    Gere gives 'em the old razzle-dazzle with his roguish charm and sharp comic timing. The surprise is the unexpected feeling he brings to this challenging role.
  21. The TV Set
    You'll have major fun at this movie. But what makes it something special is the way Kasdan laces the laughs with a sting.
  22. Black Book
    Just for starters, no movie about the Dutch Resistance during World War II has any right to be this wildly entertaining, not to mention this provocative and potently erotic.
  23. Blades of Glory
    The villains, an incestuous brother and sister played by real-life marrieds Amy Poehler and Will Arnett are a hoot. And "Office" honey Jenna Fischer is welcome as Jimmy’s love.
  24. The Lookout
    The Lookout is Frank's show. He's crafted a haunting and hypnotic film that transcends pulp by creating characters that get under your skin.
  25. Shooter
    Suspended over a deep gully of disbelief, where logic takes more bullets than the bad guys, Shooter still makes the grade as hard-ass action escapism.
  26. Reign Over Me
    Veering between sentimentality and exploitation with a few misguided stops at raunchy sex farce, Reign Over Me never finds a tone to suit its purpose.
  27. Air Guitar Nation
    Documentarian Alexandra Lipsitz believes that air-guitar competitions are worth a whole feature-length movie. She's wrong, of course. But the fun lasts longer than you might think.
  28. Color Me Kubrick
    If you can't watch John Malkovich being John Malkovich, it's still a kick watching him play Alan Conway, a gay Brit who pretended to be the legendary and reclusive director Stanley Kubrick during the 1990s.
  29. I Think I Love My Wife
    Mixing Rock with ooh-la-la turns out to be as appetizing as chalk and cheese.
  30. Premonition
    The real horror here is watching Sandra Bullock drop her big Miss Congeniality smile to A-C-T! She does this by not smiling. What happened to the range she showed in "Crash" and "Infamous?"
