  1. The Family Man
    Despite solid acting, it's a fantasy for those who don't know jack about what really makes for a wonderful life.
  2. Injeong sajeong bol geot eobtda
    The script's clichés have nowhere to hide.
  3. Miss Congeniality
    It is a measure of the movie's lack of inspiration that William Shatner is the funniest thing in it.
  4. State and Main
    As close as anything could be to a light Mamet comedy.
  5. Finding Forrester
    One can't underestimate the appeal of any movie constructed around Sean Connery's charm.
  6. The Gift
    Tolerance for this movie will likely depend on tolerance for melodramatic, over-the-top finales, especially ones with otherworldly twists.
  7. What Women Want
    Yummy yet empty.
  8. Pollock
    The movie falls short of achieving its apparent goal: being the "Raging Bull" of the art world.

  9. Dude, Where's My Car?
    Any civilization that can produce a movie this stupid probably deserves to be hit by famine and pestilence.

  10. The Emperor's New Groove
    The goofiest, giddiest and, yes, grooviest animated trip since Aladdin unbottled its genie.
  11. Chocolat
    Never enough goodies to keep the two-hour running time from seeming like three.
  12. Vertical Limit
    The action scenes in Vertical Limit take cliffhanging to the highest peaks of excitement. It's a shame the story keeps dragging us down to sea level.
  13. Proof of Life
    It's never enough of a grabber to keep the mind from wandering to the romance it apparently sparked.
  14. Dungeons & Dragons
    Worst of all, Marlon Wayans' performance as a cowardly thief would have seemed in bad taste a half-century ago.

  15. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
    This is a great movie, but it needs a sales job because it's in Mandarin.
  16. 102 Dalmatians
    Though 102 Dalmatians digs up little new ground and muzzles its villain, it does have a fetching sense of functional fun now and then.
  17. Quills
    Uniformly robust acting puts still more feathers in the caps of Rush, Winslet and Caine.
  18. Unbreakable
    Shyamalan's style is so exaggerated, with its long pauses and exacting rhythms of sound- vs.- silence, that it easily can engender eye-rolling and snickers.
  19. How the Grinch Stole Christmas
    Overproduced and essentially charmless.
  20. Bounce
    Truth is, Affleck and Paltrow flunk Chemistry 101. They aren't believable even as a fake couple.
  21. The 6th Day
    Edited like the world's most expensive car ad. The screen opens and closes like a nervous accordion, and the action shifts speeds like crazy.
  22. Rugrats in Paris: The Movie - Rugrats II
    Great movies are sometimes described as filet mignon or champagne, but this one is more like a pacifier.
  23. One Day in September
    Comprehensive and blisteringly paced.
  24. Little Nicky
    Don't put yourself through this hell.
  25. You Can Count on Me
    The best drama you've seen about Anytown, USA, since "American Beauty."

  26. Red Planet
    You can always judge a sci-fi thriller by its aliens. What does Planet offer -- Space roaches.
  27. Men of Honor
    Flaws and all, Men of Honor ultimately does its duty. It honors the feats of an incredible man.
  28. The Legend of Bagger Vance
    Molasses-paced fable.
  29. Charlie's Angels
    It's to these Angels' credit that they, like the movie, are at least intermittent fun.
  30. What's Cooking?
    More interesting as a sociological study than successful as a movie, What's Cooking? gets more involving as it strolls along.
