Borat
Sacha Baron Cohen's Kazakhstan TV journalist's trip across America would be offensive if it wasn't so funny.

Animated tale is a bit rushed and contrived as a pampered pet rat scrambles to survive in the sewers.
Babel
Director Alejandro González Iñárritu tries too hard in this gorgeous yet scattered tale of disconnection.
The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause
Third installment in the Santa series is a cheesy, no-laugh dud as Jack Frost tries to usurp St. Nick.
American Hardcore
Enthusiastic documentary is all over the map as it celebrates the loud, rude bands of the Reagan era.
Paradise, Texas
An actor (Timothy Bottoms) returns to his Texas hometown in this stirring family film.
The Great Warming
Alanis Morisette and Keanu Reeves narrate this documentary that offers no solutions to global warming.
