The Toys Are Back in Town [4]
One of those rare sequels that successfully surpasses what was a great original to begin with.
Devin D. O'Leary, WEEKLY ALIBI
Toys in the Attic [5]
"Toy Story 2" appeals to adults and kids alike; let's hope "End of Days" marks the end of these Y2K thrillers; small things beautifully observed in "Anywhere But Here."
Jim Ridley, NASHVILLE SCENE
The Devil You Say! [6]
A paint-by-numbers action flick in which Arnold shoots guns, hurls grenades and gets smacked around with baseball bats by Satan's minions.
Devin D. O'Leary, WEEKLY ALIBI
The Devil And Hissed Groans [7]
"End of Days" succeeds at being magnificently bad.
James DiGiovanna, TUCSON WEEKLY
Flawless [8]
Wonderful performances are overshadowed by heavy-handed clichés and unnecessary subplots.
Sarah Hepola, AUSTIN CHRONICLE
Sketchy [9]
Princess Mononoke is stunning and confusing. Flawless is not.
Mark Jordan, MEMPHIS FLYER
Man of the Century [10]
The audience is in on a wonderful illusion as a man of the Twenties is oblivious to the fact that he is living in the Nineties.
Marjorie Baumgarten, AUSTIN CHRONICLE
Same Old Song [11]
Alain Resnais' tribute to the work of Dennis Potter is an off-key production.
Marjorie Baumgarten, AUSTIN CHRONICLE
The Grandfather [12]
This beautifully filmed Spanish epic forges ahead at a glacial pace.
Marc Savlov, AUSTIN CHRONICLE
