    The Limey
    Soderbergh, like Tarantino, has a knack for making every shady character onscreen fascinating.

    Romance
    The film so strongly fixates on strange, explicit sexual acts that it forgoes any emotional (i.e. romantic) aspects of sex.

    Snow Falling on Cedars
    Scott Hicks adapts David Guterson's best-selling novel as if it was poetry.

    Toy Story 2
    One of those rare sequels that's even better than the original.

    Sleepy Hollow
    In between all this head-scratching nonsense, Sleepy Hollow can be fun, usually whenever the Headless Horseman shows up for swordplay that's better than anything in "The Phantom Menace."

    Go
    Manages to present rave youth's on-the-go attitude as well as "Swingers" exposed its hipster culture.

    Princess Mononoke
    Like a lot of anime, it's overlong and gets way too metaphysical at the end, but ultimately, this is a Princess worth worshipping.

    Boiler Room
    The definitive representation of young American men at the start of the 21st century.

    Dog Park
    A mangy dog of a movie that should have been re-scripted by a better writer and directed by a better filmmaker.

    Anywhere But Here
    Sarandon and Portman have sizzling electricity that makes every funny, touching or sad moment between them seem even more fascinating than the last.

    End of Days
    A devilishly fun blow-em-up that pits The Terminator vs. The Fallen One.

    The Blair Witch Project
    The what-you-don't-see element makes this an excellent film for people with overactive imaginations, and if that's you, it will scare the living crap out of you.

    Drive Me Crazy
    A poor excuse to put out a soundtrack of teen pop songs.

    The Matrix
    The Wachowski Brothers have created some of the most unrivaled and imaginative sci-fi in years.

    Three Kings
    It's full of energy and drops an emotional bomb with its unexpected tale of reluctant heroes.

    American Beauty
    A dark comical masterpiece that single-handedly announces the collapse of the American family infrastructure as it exists on the brink of Y2K.

    The 13th Warrior
    My biggest complaint: Following two nasty bloodbaths and an invasion of the creatures' lair, the final showdown seems anti-climactic.

    The Green Mile
    So moving, so memorable, so magically produced, it's going to delight millions of movie fans and sweep the Oscars.

    Fantasia 2000
    Walt would be proud.

    Angela's Ashes
    I didn't want it to end. I could have easily sat there for another two-and-a-half hours to find out what happens next.

    Stir of Echoes
    All that suspense falls dead at its climax, which proves to be a bore. The absence of a surprise ending and the lackluster spooks make this one worth skipping. I'm going back to see "The Sixth Sense."

    Life Is Beautiful
    Its unique message about laughing in the face of evil clearly reveals that life is beautiful.

    The Cider House Rules
    This is a warm, accessible story with delightful characters and a nice metaphor about following your own rules.

    Random Hearts
    It risks the believability factor for anyone who's ever been cheated on or lost a loved one.

    The World Is Not Enough
    James Bond hasn't been this boring since Timothy Dalton carried the license to kill.

    Dogma
    Frequently hilarious, often profound, and occasionally stupid.
