The Square
Unapologetic Australian thriller dealing with crimes of passions and the tragedies befalling the weak.
48
The Trotsky
High school student thinks he's the reincarnation of Leon Trotsky in this Montreal art house favorite.
47
You'll either be bored senseless, or appreciate the subtleties of acting based on troubling situations.
46
Remember Me
Robert Pattinson sheds his vampire persona to perform admirably in this surprisingly elegant drama.
45
She's Out of My League
Fantasy disguised as comedy, you'll laugh at the idea of a guy like this winning over hot Alice Eve.
44
How to Train Your Dragon
Above mediocrity animated film about fathers, sons, Vikings and those mythical monsters we love.
43
Tom Cruise's stock continues to fall despite making adequate films that combine action with comedy.
42
Really embarrassed to rank it so high, but the hopeless romantic in all of us can't deny the message.
41
It's no "Seabiscuit," but you could do a lot worse than taking a historic look back at one of the best.
40
Edgier material with an "R" rating would've been better, but Emma Stone looks like the next "it" girl.
39
The old people come out to star in this flaky action flick, but Mary-Louise Parker outshines them all.
38
You can see the jokes coming a mile away, but most should still like this "true to form" third edition.
37
Video game disguised as a film, the one-of-a-kind special effects and witty banter warrant approval.
36
Mark Wahlberg is horribly miscast, but Will Ferrell and Michael Keaton go all out and glow brightly.
35
The Kids are All Right
To expand on the title, the kids were all right but the adults in this film really make it work properly.
34
Please Give
Questions revolving around life direction are put at the forefront in this pleasing neighborhood tale.
33
Date Night
32
If this is the last movie we see Michael Douglas in, then it's not a bad way to end a brilliant career.
31
Newsman grump Harrison Ford and workaholic producer Rachel McAdams provide the amusement.
30
Never Let Me Go
Probably one of the saddest films I've ever seen, but this sort of science-fiction is strange and rare.
29
With a short runtime of only 80 minutes, the suspense runs fast and keeps you guessing to the end.
28
Leap Year
Amy Adams is so adorable and nice to look at, that you can accept the shallow love story provided.
27
Winter's Bone
Doesn't paint a pretty picture of people from the Midwest, but the rough cinematography is homey.
26
The title character was made to be played by Will Ferrell, and the script is justifiable to his talents.
25
Waiting for Superman
Intriguing documentary on the failing public school system, whether you agree with material or not.
24
Applegate, Gaffigan and the other fine role players are at ease in support of Barrymore and Long.
23
A Single Man
Colin Firth received a well-deserved Oscar nod for his portrayal of a gay man who lost his partner.
22
"Forgetting Sarah Marshall" spin-off flick is fine on its own, but not anywhere close to the original.
21
Crazy Heart
Jeff Bridges's Oscar-winning turn as a tired, aging country singer is worth the price of admission.
20
Zach Galifianakis is in vintage "Hangover" mode, and Robert Downey Jr.'s straight man is a big hit.
19
The King's Speech
Oscar nominations will be aplenty for this historical drama about King George VI's stutter problems.
18
The chemistry between Anne Hathaway and Jake Gyllenhaal is genuine in this touching love story.
17
City Island
Splendid dysfunctional family comedy with an attitude, that really should have gotten a wider release.
16
The Edge of Darkness
Mel Gibson gives a gritty performance as a cop/father investigating the murder of his only daughter.
15
Rare example of a heart-pounding action film, without having a villain or over-the-top special effects.
14
Intense, high-octane suspense that reminds you of "The Fugitive" and other great prison break films.
13
Flipped
Fantastic family film with worthwhile sentiments, it serves as a valuable "growing up" teaching lesson.
12
The Extra Man
Kevin Kline makes it look effortless as a eccentric playwright who socially escorts wealthy women.
11
Not a lot actually transpires, but it’s such an easy watch and the story is as sweet as cotton candy.
