Hannibal (2001) *

Very disappointing sequel to "The Silence Of The Lambs" (1991).

Artificial Intelligence A.I. (2001) *

A schizophrenic, but interesting clash of two very different artistic visions: Stanley Kubrick's, who prepared the film shortly before his death (and whose vision clearly dominates the first half) and Steven Spielberg's, who ended up directing it (and whose vision clearly dominates in the second half). The results are quite disappointing.

Ali (2001) *

Conventional boxing drama.
