"Washington Square" Agnieszka Holland's admirably faithful version of Henry James' "Washington Square" puts the novel under glass.
"The Watcher" Dude! Keanu Reeves tries to fill Hannibal Lecter's shoes in an unconvincing thriller.
"Way of the Gun" A new entrant in the scuzzbags - with - guns genre limps onto the screen in a disappointing directorial debut from the writer of "The Usual Suspects."
"The Wedding Planner" Jennifer Lopez stars in a chaste, lively, goofy romantic comedy. What more do you want? Well, there's a shot of that, too.

"Wet Hot American Summer" Hello mother, hello father: Please get me the hell out of this summer-camp spoof.
"What Dreams May Come" Kitsch of death: Fulsome flowers and gigantic copies of famous paintings make the afterlife of 'What Dreams May Come' an eternity of bad taste. Movie review by Laura Miller.
"What Lies Beneath" Sure, it's a shameless supernatural thriller, but the showmanship -- and Michelle Pfeiffer -- comes through in the clutch.

"What's the Worst That Could Happen?" I don't know when a bad movie has made me laugh as much as this heist farce did.
"What Women Want?" Mel Gibson in pantyhose for starters -- but some would just rather have fewer insulting movies like this one.
"When Brendan Met Trudy" You could call this slight Irish romance refreshing -- but not necessarily in a good way. By Charles Taylor [August 11, 1997]
"Where the Heart Is" With an Oprah-book plot and Hallmark sentimentality, the trailer-park melodrama never lets you forget that Natalie Portman and Ashley Judd are hot babes with perfect complexions.
"Where the Money Is" Credit aging bank robber Paul Newman for almost saving this merely diverting little heist comedy.
"The Whole Nine Yards" Attention airline passengers: Don't even bother staying awake for this Bruce Willis gangster farce.

"Wing Commander" Space opera invaders: If you absolutely, positively can't wait for 'Star Wars,' 'Wing Commander' works as frivolous filler.
"The Wings of the Dove" The opulent costume picture 'The Wings of the Dove' proves that a movie can be all dressed up and still have somewhere interesting to go.

"Wonder Boys" Michael Douglas and Tobey Maguire clash, connect and get baked in Curtis Hanson's literate upscale entertainment.

"The World Is Not Enough" God save James Bond.
