A Beautiful Mind

Terrific plot! Russell Crowe, Jennifer Connelly and Paul Bettany respectively and collectively did good job.

4.8

The Others

Two Thumbs Up!!

4.7

I Not Stupid

Good movie can be produced anywhere:-)

4.6

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

Harry Potter always succeeds in pressing you firmly in the seat. It illustrates the truth that to stick to the great original work is well enough to create a great movie.

4.6

Change Lanes

One of the most dramatic movies I have ever watched

4.5

Shrek

Smart story. Good job of Eddy Murphy

4.4

乱
(Ran)

One of the best to replay ancient Japanese battles. An Asian paradigm of Shakespeare tragedy!

4.4

Wall Street

Prof. Chen Ping played this to students learning elementary finance.

4.3

About a Boy

Typical Britain-style movie. Moving!

4.3

Green Mile

I missed this movie on MIT campus and watched it as late as in 2002. Surprised to find that the wife of Tom Hanks was the waitress who scattered the toothpicks in Rain Man

4.2

Spy Kids II

Best naïve movie of 2002. What a lovely girl and cute boy!!

4.1

I am Sam

Very few movie has three brilliant players!

4.0

Road to Perdition

Tom Hanks seems to have been definitized as a “good fellow” even when he’s a total hitman in this revenge story. Excuses are provided for whatever he did: he worked for a crime syndicate so as to support the family; he killed the messenger so as to protect his kid and himself; he massacred his old fellows as well as his boss Paul Newman so as to revenge for what happened to his own family…… Nobody blames Tom Hanks, since the audience takes it for granted that he wouldn’t bully civilians as all other hitmen did; the messenger was useful only before he conveyed the message; and of course all the bodyguards except Tom Hanks should be killed.

3.9

Eyes Wide Shut

The most disgusting ceremony can be traced back to Lamaism of Tibetan. It explains why more and more western people gets obsessed in this somehow evil religion

3.8

千雨千寻
(Spirited Away)

Hayao Miyazaki’s latest masterpiece presenting magnificent picture with various vivid figures by extreme creativity

3.7

Pearl Harbor

State-of-art battle view. But they shot too many Jap fighters than the truth

3.6

Vertical Limit

Good story

3.5

Stuart Little II

Why did the hawk charge at Stuart Little’s plane? Must bad guy be idiot in Hollywood pattern?

3.5

The Touch

You rarely see such objective description on Tibet. However, why should they send the relics of a Han monk to Tibet in the first place?

3.4

Patton

Everyone remembers its beginning!

3.4

The Mexican

3.3

Erin Brockvich

Seems Julia Roberts has successfully confirmed her style as a middle age mediocre-looking woman

3.3

Ice Age

The one appears in the beginning and the end is so cute!

3.2

Monster Inc.

Scream can be converted into energy, but how can laughter?

3.1

鬼子来了

(Devils On The Doorstep)

Seems like a serial of black humors: the Japanese officer disliked his escaped soldier simply coz he had already reported his death; the Japanese gaily had banquet with the people they planned to holocaust; and finally, David Wu as a Kuomintang officer seemed to be a protector of the enemy instead of his own people

3.1

Bridget Jones’s Diary

Don’t you find BJ is very like Sammi Cheng in Needing You

3.0

Unfaithful

It’s not Hollywood’s tradition to leave a murderer at large

2.9

Panic Room

The whole dramatic story took place in one house, one night. It’s a damage of image when Jodie Foster shouted to the wife of her ex-hubby: “get him on the phone, bitch!”

2.9

High Crime

Mediocre story, outstanding cast

2.8

Insomnia

Al Pacino fits his role so much

2.8

Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers

State-of-art special effect cannot save poor story. It’s commonsense that since the invention of explosive, no castle is staunch any more, let alone such a small castle with the wall unbelievably low. Then why did the king drive his people there? And how can cavalry dive at such a steep angle? You heard of Waterloo as a nightmare to French cavalry?

I just cannot imagine what kind of idiots will ever love such low-IQ delirious raving

2.7

Swordfish

Interesting flashback. John Travolta is too fat

2.6

幽灵公主
(Princess Mononoki)

Why this guru never tries any Japanese history-related topic instead of mythology

2.6

Minority Report

I understand what is a “Minority Report” but yet cannot see how Tom Hanks case applies to this definition. BTW, it studies the issue of pre-emptive action

2.6

花火
(Hana Bi)

Presents the most beautiful death.

2.5

French Connection

From this movie one could tell the level of popular action movie long time ago.  In the end poor Gene Hickman just had to keep running.

2.5

My Big Fat Greek Wedding

Cannot understand why this mediocre movie became a blockbuster in US. Anyway it managed to describe the culture of Greek community

2.4

Simone

S1m0ne presents an old Al Pacino and a new computer technology called Un-uninstall

2.4

Pay Back

Simple while intriguing story. It shows nobody must fight back hard and fearlessly

2.3

WindTalker

Anyone tell me how could the navy locate enemy so precisely without hurting own marine in just several hundred yards

2.3

Prince of Egypt

Fight against tyranny and flee to freedom…… Stupid theme

2.2

Barbershop

Like Greek Wedding, it’s a quite nice story about black community. It’s funny when the two thieves dragged the stolen ATM machine on the street while two cops came to draw money

2.2

Spirit, Stallion of Cimarron

A mediocre story about freedom

2.1

Apocalypse Now Redux

It shared the same problem with its contemporary such as Deer Hunter: tedious

2.0

The Deep Blue Sea

Intrigue story again and again startles you

1.9

K-Pax

The simplified story is: You don’t believe I am God? I left.

1.9

Showtime

Robert De Nero disappointed me again

1.8

Black Hawk Down

I really don’t like to act so vulgar to use the word Masturbation

1.7

The Tuxedo

Stupid story, old fighter, curious girl and strange affair

1.6

Lilo & Stitch

Worst cartoon watched this year

1.5

Mr. Deeds

A very typical Hollywood idiot ending

1.4

Payback

Interesting story but I wonder why bad guys are so weak

1.3

晚娘
(Jan Dara)

The purpose of the director is to make you vomit all the way through. Broken story!

1.2

Spiderman

Willem DaFoe was misused in this moron movie

1.1

GI Jane

This one doesn’t fall below 1.0 because it has Demi Moore

1.0

15 Minutes

Robert De Nero disappointed me

0.9

天下无双

I watched it on a flight, and I realized that’s the only place I would ever watch such kind of movie

0.8

Signs

Kidding nonsense!

0.7

The One

I went to sleep during this movie. Therefore not quite sure whether it’s a good one or not

0.6

Arachnophobia

Like most other such disaster movies, it’s a totally nonsense

0.5

Princess Diary

梦倒做得不错

0.4

Tai Pan

Joan Chen ended her career as an actress with such a junk movie? Understandable!

0.3

Power Puff Girl

I didn’t see any difference between these stupid gals and the so-called evil monkey. What I learned was that the more powerful side, not the good side, would prevail; that aliens should be massacred; and that Americans love such terrible pattern.

0.2

Reign of Fire

Who’s the real idiot, the audience or the director?

0.1

Austin Powers 3 Goldmember

No doubt the worst movie of 2002
