Mark Wahlberg, in a star-making performance, has the kind of electric ingenuousness that John Travolta did in "Saturday Night Fever." -

Memento, which may be the ultimate existential thriller, has a spooky repetitive urgency that takes on the clarity of a dream. -

Carries so much impacted menace and visual narrative gamesmanship that it brought back some of the excitement I felt nearly a decade ago watching Quentin Tarantino's ''Reservoir Dogs.'' -

The first animated feature produced entirely on computer is a magically witty and humane entertainment, a hellzapoppin fairy tale about a roomful of suburban toys who come to life when humans aren't around. -

In this brilliantly sustained climax, Coppola unveils a vision of corruption that embraces the entire world, but he's also reveling in sheer theatrical magic in a way that only a master can. -

The movie is so hilariously sly about something so fetishistically trivial that at times it appears to take in an entire culture through a lens made of cheese. -

A gripping documentary that uses voluminous period evidence — unedited news footage, tape recordings of SLA leader Cinque's rants — to brilliantly reconstruct the entire freak event. -

An extraordinary film; it may be the most haunting documentary since ''Crumb.'' -

Titanic floods you with elemental passion in a way that invites comparison with the original movie spectacles of D.W. Griffith. -

Spielberg restages the Holocaust with an existential vividness unprecedented in any nondocumentary film: He makes us feel as if we're living right inside the 20th century's darkest-and most defining-episode. -

A beautifully sinister and transfixing entertainment-age daydream. -

True art is a journey to somewhere you've never been, and there has never been a movie quite like Breaking the Waves. -
-

Owen Gleiberman 100
A comedy of the ridiculous in which the ridiculous turns unexpectedly sublime. -

It's a scrumptious and dizzy-spirited lark, a what-the-hell-let's-rob-the-casino flick made with so much wit and brains and dazzle and virtuosity that the sheer speed and cleverness of the caper hits you like a shot of pure oxygen. -

Jim Carrey's performance is an impersonation on the level of genius. -

The film is at times harrowing to watch, yet it's also wry and delicate and absorbing. It's infused with the messy excitement of imperfect passion. -

The new film, which unfolds in real time over the course of 80 minutes, is a deeper, darker, altogether more memorable experience. It doesn't extend the characters so much as fulfill them. -

Watching Eternal Sunshine, you don't just watch a love story -- you fall in love with what love really is. -

By the end, Campion views all her characters with a compassion bordering on grace, a humanity-like her heroine's-as dark, quiet, and enveloping as the ocean. -

May be the first movie to fully capture the way that drugs dislocate us from ourselves. -

The School of Rock was made by gifted veterans of the American indie scene, but it's still the most unlikely great movie of the year. -

With an authenticity that is tender and merciless, the movie shows you what it looks like when youth rebellion becomes a form of fascism. -

In spirit, Open Water reduces us to children peering through our fingers, waiting for the horrid deliverance we're not quite sure we want to see. -

The most exhilarating movie so far this year. It's made up of many familiar elements -- think ''Monsoon Wedding'' meets ''My Beautiful Laundrette'' meets ''Personal Best'' -- yet before long, you catch on to how buoyant and funny and original it is. -
