|
| Crush (2002) | |
|
| Wendigo (2002) | This film is only scary if you're afraid of artfully self-conscious, grainy cinematography. |
|
| The Cat's Meow (2002) | |
|
| World Traveler (2002) | Crudup's screen presence is the one thing that holds interest in the midst of a mushy, existential exploration of why men leave their families. |
|
| Dark Blue World (2001) | A bittersweet world, and it's frankly one to which we've been before, but seldom do we see it rendered with such exquisite, if pained, craftsmanship. |
|
| Waydowntown (2002) | The film's snags and stumblings are more than compensated for by its wryly subversive tone. |
|
| Pauline and Paulette (2002) | Petersen and van der Groen play affectingly against each other in this geriatric heartwarmer. |
|
| The Rookie (2002) | |
|
| Panic Room (2002) | |
|
| Piņero (2001) | |
|
| Stolen Summer (2002) | |
|
| Ice Age (2002) | |
|
| Last Orders (2002) | " There's been no richer cinematic tapestry of humanity so far this year." |
|
| Monsoon Wedding (2002) | |
|
| The Time Machine (2002) | |
|
| Mean Machine (2002) | Earnest yet curiously tepid and choppy recycling in which predictability is the only winner. |
|
| We Were Soldiers (2002) | As in Black Hawk Down, the combat sequences are filmed with great skill and pulse-pounding immediacy. |
|
| 40 Days and 40 Nights (2002) | A one-joke sex comedy that seems to go on about 38 days and 38 nights too long. |
|
| Scotland, PA (2002) | Scotland, PA. blurs the line between black comedy and black hole. |
|
| Dragonfly (2002) | |
|
| The Queen of the Damned (2002) | Queen of the Damned degenerates into a lot of dull declaiming and attitudinizing, despite a sly tongue -in-cheek quality brought by a preening Stuart Townsend to the Lestat role he inherited from the utterly humorless Tom Cruise. |
|
| Iris (2001) | |
|
| Monster's Ball (2001) | |
|
| Rollerball (2002) | It had a chance to improve upon the crude and stupid 1975 original, set in a future America. Instead, it's only cruder and stupider. |
|
| Big Fat Liar (2002) | " Where there's dumb and dumber, there's invariably dumbest, a case in point being Big Fat Liar." |
|
| Italian for Beginners (2002) | |
|
| I Am Sam (2002) | " Penn and Pfeiffer carry I Am Sam further into plausibility than it has any right to expect." |
|
| Lantana (2001) | " The film is as dense as its namesake, and it reminds us how few contemporary thrillers are adult." |
|
| Black Hawk Down (2001) | Despite all the hard work by an army of craftsmen working on location in Morocco, the film takes the easy way out, subsiding into a thing of technical challenges met rather than attempting to probe the events at a deeper level. |
|
| Charlotte Gray (2001) | " It's that most unfortunate of commodities, a thing of muffled usualness, virtually generic." |
|
| The Brotherhood of the Wolf (2002) | |
|
| Gosford Park (2001) | " One could go on and on, cataloging the pleasures that pour forth from the screen." |
