|---|---|---|---|
| 27% | Hollow Man (2000) |
The film becomes so much urgent nonsense, its killing spree [is] neither cheaply thrilling nor even more cheaply cathartic.‐ TNT's Rough Cut

| 31% | 28 Days (2000) |
The saddest part about 28 Days is it's more fun when it's drunk.‐ TNT's Rough Cut

|
| 78% | Requiem for a Dream (2000) |
Requiem wants to be about more than drug addiction ... Alas, Requiem is only about drug addiction.‐ TNT's Rough Cut

| 41% | The Replacements (2000) |
Mind-achingly mediocre in every regard.‐ TNT's Rough Cut

|
| 51% | Steal This Movie (2000) |
Most of Steal This Movie plays with all the historical verity and cheapo sheen of a made-for-VH1 original.‐ TNT's Rough Cut

|
| 3% | Bless the Child (2000) |
Bless the Child is pop junk, an airport paperback, literally, turned into a mid-budget devil thriller.‐ TNT's Rough Cut

|
|
| 77% | Gladiator (2000) |
What elevates Gladiator to the near-greatness it occasionally achieves is the performance of Russell Crowe as Maximus.‐ TNT's Rough Cut

|
|
| 46% | The Cell (2000) |
The Cell has virtually nothing on its mind but showcasing its sumptuous, year's-best production design, fine special effects, and demented sensibility.‐ TNT's Rough Cut

|
|
| 30% | Big Momma's House (2000) |
Big Momma lacks the guts and the wits to go for anything but cheap laughs.‐ TNT's Rough Cut

|
|
| 61% | The Patriot (2000) |
The Patriot delivers, for the most part, effective, populist entertainment.‐ TNT's Rough Cut

|
|
| 57% | Mission: Impossible 2 (2000) |
To his credit, Woo milks every last ounce of poetry from this mission, filling out Robert Towne's anemic script with his trademark doves, slo-mo acrobatics, and double-fisted gunplay.‐ TNT's Rough Cut

|
| 13% | Whipped (1999) |
Whipped's biggest problem isn't that it's cynical or mean-spirited (which it certainly is), but that it's entirely false and utterly hollow.‐ TNT's Rough Cut

|
|
| 89% | Almost Famous (2000) |
The film reels with the nostalgia, exuberance, and bravado of an era long-gone, while also feeling nothing less than immediate and universal.‐ TNT's Rough Cut

|
|
| 73% | The Big Kahuna (2000) |
Kahuna falters in its attempts at profundity or dynamic social commentary.‐ TNT's Rough Cut
Posted Jan 1, 2000
|
|
| 24% | Gone in 60 Seconds (Gone in Sixty Seconds) (2000) |
For all its mayhem, 60 Seconds delivers precious little rush.‐ TNT's Rough Cut
Posted Jan 1, 2000
|
|
| 43% | The Adventures of Rocky & Bullwinkle (2000) |
Rocky & Bullwinkle is the new millennium's Howard the Duck.‐ TNT's Rough Cut
Posted Jan 1, 2000
|
|
| 16% | The Art of War (2000) |
As directed by Christian Duguay with two left feet and no visual sense, Art of War fails to deliver even as a stock action film.‐ TNT's Rough Cut
Posted Jan 1, 2000
|
|
| 3% | Battlefield Earth (2000) |
Don't see this movie.‐ TNT's Rough Cut

|
| 57% | Hamlet (2000) |
One of this year's great films, a worthy addition in every way to the cinematic sub-genre that is Hamlet itself.‐ TNT's Rough Cut
Posted Jan 1, 2000
|
|
| 57% | Road Trip (2000) |
What Road Trip's filmmakers forget is that even gross-out humor needs a soul.‐ TNT's Rough Cut

|
| 10% | The Watcher (2000) |
[James Spader] is eminently, um, watchable.‐ TNT's Rough Cut

|
| 94% | Best in Show (2000) |
Provides a never indulgent, always electrifying carte blanche to some of the most gifted screen comedians working today.‐ TNT's Rough Cut

|
|
| 81% | X-Men (2000) |
A rousing, crowd-pleaser that explodes with the meaningful heroics of flawed individuals struggling to save themselves.‐ TNT's Rough Cut
