  1. Godzilla 2000
    May be dull, but the familiarity of it all makes it feel ceremonial, a reassuring ritual.
    • USA Today
  2. Bless the Child
    A cheesy crock of religious mumbo jumbo.
    • USA Today
  3. Cecil B. DeMented
    Where once Waters was brilliantly polluted, now he comes off diluted.
    • USA Today
  4. The Replacements
    One of those movies that goes for a jarringly new emotion every 30 seconds or so while the story's foundation is collapsing.
  5. Autumn in New York
    Gere has never seemed more squirrelly.
    • USA Today
  6. The Tao of Steve
    This quirky, winning sleeper from first-time director Jenniphr Goodman has its pokey moments, but it's no insult to say that it is as pleasantly easygoing as its slacker hero.
  7. Saving Grace
    Though not quite up to "The Full Monty" or "Waking Ned Devine," there's just enough left in that overseas whimsy stockpile to generate good buzz (the word-of-mouth moviegoer kind).
  8. Space Cowboys
    Preposterous to the extreme.
  9. Coyote Ugly
    As shallow as a shot glass.
  10. Hollow Man
    Ultimately the title is most revealing. It's hollow, man.

  11. Nutty Professor II: The Klumps
    When have we seen the same performer playing both parts in a sexual situation? It happens here, not once but twice.
  12. Girl on the Bridge
    Paradis is a most striking subject, but the movie is a winner as well, starting with a story full of black-comic possibilities exploited fully by the great French director Patrice Leconte.
    • USA Today
  13. Wonderland
    If Wonderland is difficult to embrace, it is easy to admire.
  14. Loser
    What do you call a filmmaker who thinks imitating a screen benchmark can make up for emotions that are evading her actors -- Clueless.
  15. The Eyes of Tammy Faye
    A largely irresistible puff piece.
    • USA Today
  16. What Lies Beneath
    Never reaches much beyond the surface, and what lies there is all too predictable.
  17. Pokémon: The Movie 2000
    What do you have to smoke to understand this?
  18. The Five Senses
    The five stories in The Five Senses flawlessly and even artfully create a unified mood.
    • USA Today
  19. X-Men
    Missing are well-choreographed action scenes, likable characters and involving plot twists.
  20. Chuck & Buck
    Its premise is so promising that you long for more than Arteta's low-key approach can deliver.
    • USA Today
  21. The Kid
    This boomer-coddling comic fantasy, in which a callous adult on the brink of 40 has a chance encounter with his pudgy, lisping 8-year-old self, is an iffier what-if.
  22. Scary Movie
    Maybe I'm just too old to appreciate the startling sight of a phallus jammed into someone's ear.
  23. The Perfect Storm
    So much water. Such a dramatic washout.
  24. The Adventures of Rocky & Bullwinkle
    Pure nonsense is hard to sustain for an entire feature-length movie.
    • USA Today
  25. Trixie
    Eventually evolves into a murder mystery that isn't very compelling.
  26. The Patriot
    Emmerich might have had a masterpiece, but he'll have to settle for what comes close to being a must-see movie today.
  27. Me, Myself & Irene
    It's not dumb-good. It's dumb-stupid.
    • USA Today
  28. Chicken Run
    A little slapstick, a little action, rich characters and a whopping serving of wit. All baked to near-perfection.
    • USA Today
  29. Titan A.E.
    Visually impressive but woefully dumbed-down.
  30. Shaft
    It's fast, easy on the eyes, full of funny putdowns and cast well enough to have two memorable villains.
