Top 5 movies

1. One Hour Photo -- Robin Williams delivers a chilling yet compelling performance as a lonely photo clerk taking an unhealthy interest in his customers' Kodak moments. So far, one of the best films of 2002.

2. Mostly Martha -- German charmer about a hyper-precise chef (Martina Gedeck) loosening up with the help of her young niece and a messy kitchen assistant (Sergio Castellitto). Shown with English subtitles.

3. The Good Girl -- Jennifer Aniston gets by without a little help from her Friends. Aniston delivers a fine performance as a small-town cashier dallying with a younger man (Jake Gyllenhaal).

4. Barbershop -- Cedric the Entertainer steals the show in a warm-hearted comedy set during one day in a Chicago barbershop. Co-starring Ice Cube (whose company produced the film) and pop singer Eve.

5. My Big Fat Greek Wedding -- The sleeper hit of 2002 is still going strong at theaters after nearly five months in release. See it before the unavoidable sitcom and sequel (My Big Fat Greek Honeymoon, perhaps?)
