  1. An expertly crafted, deeply moving film.
  2. The movie that deserved to win the Oscar for foreign-language film, and one of the best movies ever made about life behind the Iron Curtain.
  3. Plot and dialogue take a back seat to a series of inventive sight gags that unspool with effortless charm. An ensemble cast of talented amateurs is in top form.
  4. The most devastating spoof of reality TV since Albert Brooks' 1978 "Real Life."
  5. So joyous it can actually shake viewers out of a bad mood.
  6. A remarkable accomplishment. It takes one of the century's vast tragedies...and makes it heart-rendingly real and intimate.
  7. Such astounding computer-generated effects you'll suspend disbelief and root for the hero, a 3-inch talking mouse.
  8. A triumph of low-budget filmmaking.
  9. A crowd-pleasing ensemble piece, whose story goes exactly where you want it to.
  10. Perfectly captures the cultural and emotional wasteland that is suburban Jersey.
  11. Makes the most of its wintry settings and never insults the audience's intelligence -- no mean feat for a family film. It's a real crowd-pleaser.
  12. There have been many documentaries about the Holocaust in recent years, but this one really stands out.
  13. Easily one of the year's best movies.
  14. This bizarre, original and brilliantly crafted documentary about the Sex Pistols is funny and at times moving -- despite all the ugliness and stupidity it depicts.
  15. A delightful, fresh dark comedy.
  16. Morris' most gripping film since "The Thin Blue Line," is the year's scariest movie.
  17. Makhmalbaf finds room for moments of humor and humanity.
  18. "The Sixth Sense" was no fluke. Unbreakable, writer-director M. Night Shyamalan's dazzling reunion with Bruce Willis confirms he's one of the most brilliant filmmakers working today.
  19. O
    Exceptionally intelligent and powerful contemporary adaptation.
  20. Cheerful, slightly cheesy entertainment that uses the latest special-effects techniques to breathe life into a venerable film tradition.
  21. Expertly directed, acted and written crowd-pleaser.
  22. Gripping and stylish thriller.
  23. Lacks the humor and charm that fills the book and makes it so much more than a catalog of suffering.
  24. Just as spectacular as seeing the view from Everest or other natural wonders caught by the IMAX technology.
  25. It is an important, thoroughly bewitching work of art.
  26. It's an even rarer pleasure to see a film that combines exciting action with a smart, well-informed script and vivid yet restrained performances.
  27. Less grim than it sounds, Southern Comfort ends on a note of triumph for its endearing, gender-bending hero.
  28. The cast is amazing -- two of the lead actresses are first-timers.
  29. Davis, a hugely underrated actress..., is deadpan perfection as Joyce, wearing oversized glasses and a wig that makes her look like an older version of Thora Birch's character in "Ghost World."
  30. Smart, funny and ingeniously detailed with terrific vocal teamwork.
