(1958)

Requiem for a Dream (2000)

Publish Date: October 6, 2000
"Mr. Aronofsky draws astonishing performances from his actors."

The New York Times
In the Mood for Love (2000)

Publish Date: September 30, 2000
"Dizzy with a romantic spirit that’s been missing from the cinema forever."

The New York Times
Brother (2000)

Publish Date: September 27, 2000
"If the film had ended a couple of scenes earlier, on a touch that's a tribute to westerns and showdowns, Mr. Kitano would have finished things off beautifully. But that's a minor quibble."

The New York Times
Highlander: Endgame (2000)

Publish Date: September 2, 2000
"There is so much exposition that some may find it as confusing as the Samuel Beckett play of the same name (...) When 'Highlander' sticks to the hand-to-hand battles and doesn't try to offer deeper thoughts on the life of an immortal, it works on its own terms"

The New York Times
The Replacements (2000)

Publish Date: August 11, 2000
"'[It] is so eager to please that it's like a Labrador retriever that slobbers all over you and leaves hair on your favorite sweater"

The New York Times
Coyote Ugly (2000)

Publish Date: August 4, 2000
"Superficial (...) It looks like a big-budget version of a Miller's Genuine Draft commercial. (After extolling the fun of alcohol, the movie is lacking only the somber tagline "Drink Responsibly," which actually makes the Miller television spots morally superior.)."

The New York Times
Nutty Professor II: The Klumps (2000)

Publish Date: July 28, 2000
"Parts of the film are tremendously funny (...) But some of the cheap laughs to which the picture stoops will give you the blues."

The New York Times
Thomas and the Magic Railroad (2000)

Publish Date: July 26, 2000
"It's like watching one of those live-action children's shows of the 70's, in which not much happens but it all takes place slowly and emphatically"

The New York Times
Criminal Lovers (1999)

Publish Date: July 21, 2000
"[It] is such an amalgam of fairy tales, old movies and tabloid stories that it never develops a life of its own (...) It's one of those cases where the director trips over his own brains"

The New York Times
X-Men (2000)

Publish Date: July 14, 2000
"The filmmakers' love for these characters and their histories is obvious, but it's just as obvious that they doesn't have any distance. There are elements that work on the page that just don't lend themselves to film."

The New York Times
Praise (1998)

Publish Date: June 30, 2000
"One of the year's ten best."

The New York Times
The Patriot (2000)

Publish Date: June 28, 2000
"It may be effective, but you leave the theater feeling used (...) 'The Patriot'' is a slow, somber epic, or rather it is presented slowly and somberly, as if such staging could give it substance."

The New York Times
Gladiator (2000)

Publish Date: May 5, 2000
"Grandiose and silly (...) It's like a handsomely designed weapon: you can't take your eyes off it even though you may be repelled by its purpose."

The New York Times
The Big Kahuna (2000)

Publish Date: April 28, 2000
"It's just hard to tell what would have served this play, which was adapted by Mr. Rueff for the screen, better. It's so transparent you could wrap sandwiches with it."

The New York Times
U-571 (2000)

Publish Date: April 21, 2000
"'U-571' manages to work up some generic claustrophobic discomfort (...) Yet there is so little characterization that when the sub goes down, you may find yourself confused as to which of the supporting cast members lived through the torpedo blast"

The New York Times
Keeping the Faith (2000)

Publish Date: April 14, 2000
"It is competent, but it seems driven to clear up complications as quickly as acne is dispatched in an infomercial."

The New York Times
The Specialist (1999)

Publish Date: April 12, 2000
"An amazing document"

The New York Times
The Eyes of Tammy Faye (2000)

Publish Date: March 31, 2000
"[It] cries out for a little more analysis of its subject. Instead, it joyfully wallows in the backdraft of her excesses"

The New York Times
Romeo Must Die (2000)

Publish Date: March 22, 2000
"You catch Mr. Li in bite-size chunks instead of the family-style helpings in his other work."

The New York Times
What Planet are You From? (2000)

Publish Date: March 3, 2000
"This movie wants to be sweet and dark at the same time, but it is as distant as a planet's satellite."
