Eastern Promises: David Cronenberg directs this masterful thriller about a midwife (Naomi Watts) who runs afoul of an organized crime family, which puts a mystery man (Viggo Mortensen) on her tail. Watts is brilliant, and Mortensen has the role of a lifetime.
Rush Hour 3: The L.A. detective (Chris Tucker) and Hong Kong inspector (Jackie Chan) reunite for a flat sequel, set in Paris. Chan no longer has his sinewy grace, and Tucker's horndog cop shtick isn't nearly as funny as he thinks it is.
