IN: Write an ordered list of reviews about "pi".

OUT: 1. Every line of dialogue, indeed every small action, is packed with meaning in this taxingly potent film.
2. That anyone is out there sweating to make movies (and this one's budget was only $60,000!) about mathematical theories, philosophy and other exertions of the mind would be great news all by itself. That the movie is also good is even better.
3. I can virtually guarantee you won't see anything else like it this year.
4. It all leads to a very strange place, and I'm particularly impressed with the economical means, both financially and artistically, by which Aronofsky gets there.
5. What is difficult is to view this film without a mind seeking to be intrigued, because, if you don't want intrigue, you shouldn't be watching Pi.
6. Who knew mathematics and numerology could be so engrossing?
7. The cinematic equivalent of a full-bore panic attack, sweaty palms, rapid heartbeat, and all.
8. As smart as it is, 'Pi' is awfully hard to watch. Filmed with hand-held cameras in splotchy black-and-white and crudely edited, it has the style and attitude of a no-budget midnight movie.
9. Even if you're the type who are intimidated by maths like me (to this day I insist that my high school maths teacher arrived at class on a broomstick!), then don't fret: adeptness at mathematics isn't a prerequisite for enjoying Pi.
10. ...an opiate-induced, caffeinated, super-octane trip.

IN: Write an ordered list of reviews about "ramona and beezus".

OUT: 1. Very entertaining and even heartbreaking in some moments...
2. Captures the spirit of the Beverly Cleary books and offers a Ramona who's a believable combination of mischief and innocence.
3. Just try not to smile as you watch the imaginative misfit Ramona make classic childhood mistakes in this ebullient adaptation of Beverly Cleary's timeless series.
4. ...an affable yet forgettable little comedy...
5. Despite everyone's efforts, Ramona comes across as an insufferably spoilt and attention-seeking little horror.
6. Performances are perfectly pleasant, but more of Ramona's flights of fancy and less lingering on the adult romance would've added some oomph.
7. Only a twisted, seriously sad individual could have a problem with this sunny tween comedy, which I hated.
8. This sitcom-bright film doesn't come close to the quality of the Beverly Cleary book series, but it's a sweet, frequently charming effort that doesn't betray its G rating.
9. In this vision of Ramona, sincerity is decency and no mores, politics or creeds define those bounds. Screw irony, it's a temp trend anyway.
10. Nothing to frighten the horses, as they say, or interest or entertain them much, either.

IN: Write an ordered list of reviews about "shake hands with the devil the journey of romeo dallaire".

OUT: 1. The result is at once a document of destruction (via narration and newsreel footage), an indictment of the world community, and a testimony to the resilience of those abandoned people.
2. One of the best ways to make a large catastrophe comprehensible to the average joe is by showing it through the eyes of one person
3. A tragic reminder of how that overused epithet, 'Never again', makes hypocrites of us all.
4. Tries to tell two stories -- the story of the genocide and the story of Roméo Dallaire -- and it doesn't quite succeed at either.
5. We never get a satisfying re-creation of the events for which Dallaire now suffers.
6. In a way, Shake Hands With the Devil puts the best of Western conscience on display -- and it's not a pretty sight.
7. ... blunt, somewhat artless, but very effective.
8. Offers a rare and privileged portrait of a heroic man profoundly troubled by a terrible experience.
9. Terrible to watch. And that's exactly why it needs to be seen.
10. [Dallaire] makes for a fascinating focal point ... a fundamentally decent man, cursed with a horribly total recall. He can't stop seeing it.

IN: Write an ordered list of reviews about "whats eating gilbert grape".

OUT:
1. There is a warmth and wit and insightfulness here that brings the film significantly up a few notches from the usual fare on this subject, and the performances are all excellent.
2. Well-written (albeit a little too long) and competently acted.
3. With an eccentric charm that falters only in a few places, the movie makes a strong statement against conformity and the franchising of America by celebrating a cast of characters and a storyline that don't fit into a mold.
4. Small-town drama has big moments thanks to Johnny Depp, Juliette Lewis and a superb Leonardo DiCaprio.
5. An overrated film. DiCaprio gives a great performance as a mentally retarded boy. It's so good, in fact, that's it's difficult to watch.
6. A quirky study of altruism that It shows how love in a family context can be transformed and renewed again and again.
7. Hallström's finally struck a chord with the Americans, though it's much the same cocktail of whimsy and worry, the eccentric and the banal, that he's been mixing all along.
8. Fine performances by all, with Leonardo DiCaprio a stand out.
9. One of the best dramas ever. In a small town where nothing happens, every scene is an event as Gilbert deals with life.
10. Particularly impressive are the sweet, weirdly idyllic tone of Mr. Hallstrom's direction and Johnny Depp's tender, disarming performance as the long-suffering Gilbert Grape.
