Tomato

La Vie En Rose (2007)

"It’s early for Oscar baiting but Marion Cotillard’s performance as Édith Piaf in La Vie En Rose puts itself on the hook."

Armond White

Tomato

Lady Chatterley (2006)

"[Director] Ferran very simply anticipates a future for human relationships with a rush of man-to-woman communication that makes the film -- despite its excessive length (nearly three hours) -- totally winning."

Armond White

Splat

Lagerfeld Confidential (2007)

"Lagerfeld Confidential’s portrait of the artistic director allows its subject to dictate the terms of his portrait. In an era of ever-present spin, it’s a popular -- though less than satisfying -- approach."

Felicia Feaster

Splat

Lake City (2008)

"All of these movies uneasily coexist under the umbrella title of Lake City, which is a shame because Sissy Spacek can be found wasting a genuinely affecting performance in this mess."

Mark Peikert

Tomato

Lake of Fire (2007)

"[A] passionate meditation on the fiery issue."

Eric Kohn

Splat

Lake Tahoe (2009)

"If a dramatic action occurs in Lake Tahoe, a new film from Mexican director Fernando Eimbcke, you probably won't see it."

David Berke

Splat

Lakeview Terrace (2008)

"It’s important to clearly state that Jackson and LaBute’s cynical routines in Lakeview Terrace offend human decency, but I’m brushing their dirt off my shoulder."

Armond White

Tomato

Land of the Lost (2009)

"Land of the Lost sheds its TV-formula origins as a 1970s network series and becomes glib fun."

Armond White

Tomato

Lars And The Real Girl (2007)

"Gillespie’s sophomore outing seems destined to be perceived as his true emergence as an artist."

Eric Kohn

Splat

The Last Mistress (2008)

"Breillat can’t make up for Argento’s shallowness, and her own political imprudence gets in the way of her romanticism."

Armond White

Tomato

The Last Winter (2007)

"Ues conventional chills to create a surging diatribe on humanity’s willingness to let nature fall into disarray."

Eric Kohn

Tomato

Last Year at Marienbad (1961)

"Consistent with his other great works, Marienbad transcends reality. Resnais’ projects haven’t aged because they defy time."

Eric Kohn

Tomato

Late Bloomer (2004)

"It may not look particularly stunning or insightful from a distance; but when viewed up close and in fragments, it’s a queasy stutter of rage that is impossible to ignore."

Simon Abrams

Tomato

Leon Morin, Priest (1961)

"This extraordinary drama doesn’t just play games with sexual disorientation and philosophical argument; it’s also implicitly about life turned upside down."

Armond White

Tomato

The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou (2004)

"It's part of that American eccentricity to obsess over growing up. Anderson's obsession has genuine, daffy substance."

Armond White

Splat

The Life Before Her Eyes (2008)

"Damn if the title The Life Before Her Eyes doesn’t give away director Vadel Perelman’s entire conceit!"

Armond White

Tomato

Lights In The Dusk (2007)

"The downbeat tone of Lights in the Dusk just escapes offense and self-parody due to Kaurismäki’s careful, subtle craftsmanship."

Armond White

Splat

The Limits of Control (2009)

"Jim Jarmsuch has been responsible for many of the dullest hours ever spent at the movies. His new The Limits of Control is no different."

Armond White

Tomato

Lions for Lambs (2007)

"In the best directing of his auteur career, Redford turns Carnahan’s original script into a modern-day version of what Sergei Eisenstein called 'Intellectual Montage.'"

Armond White

Tomato

The Lives of Others (2006)

"How surprising that a new German film would teach Americans about human faith at a time when acclaimed movies like Borat lack faith."

Armond White

Splat

The Lodger (2009)

"Unlike Terence Davies, whose use of the cinematic past becomes a felt element in his storytelling, writer-director David Ondaatje repeats the past so inexpertly that The Lodger (an update of Alfred Hitchcock’s 1926 film) is almost comically schlocky."

Armond White

Splat

Look (2007)

"The whole thing feels so heavily scripted that it brings down the overarching impact. The misguided route raises the question of what kind of juicy stories might be produced by the real thing."

Eric Kohn

Tomato

Lorna's Silence (2009)

"Belgian film team Luc and Jean-Pierre Dardenne do small things profoundly."

Armond White

Splat

Lou Reed's Berlin (2008)

"Schnabel is not exactly the ideal interpreter of Lou Reed’s Berlin-years anguish. And the Berlin songs themselves don’t transport one into that experience so much as convey a once-novel attitude."

Armond White

Tomato

Love and Honor (2008)

"Thanks to its focus on internal struggle and domestically confined drama, Love and Honor is the wilting lily of Yamada’s trilogy, albeit an exceptionally satisfying romance."

Simon Abrams

Splat

The Love Guru (2008)

"Schnabel’s bland direction expresses no particular vision."

Armond White

Splat

Love in the Time of Cholera (2007)

"Despite its temporal range, the biggest pratfall of the movie is its outdated aura. Newell gives us fabulous scenery and a classic narrative, but none of it becomes involving in the present."

Eric Kohn

Splat

Love Songs (2008)

"This deconstruction is daring and should be intoxicating; but, instead, what Honoré brings to the movie-musical genre doesn’t improve upon its past bold experiments."

Armond White

Splat

The Lovely Bones (2009)

"Slipping past Sebold’s quondam feminist protest (briefly glimpsing Germaine Greer’s The Female Eunuch, for example), Jackson goes to the edge of lurid sentimentality."

Armond White

Splat

The Lucky Ones (2008)

"Perhaps if The Lucky Ones wasn’t so crammed with incidents, the absurd coincidences wouldn’t be so grating."

Mark Peikert

Tomato

Lust, Caution (2007)

"Every shot here looks sensuous, yet is unmistakably second rate -- the filmmaking equivalent to prestige magazine fiction."

Armond White

Tomato

Lynch (One) (2007)

"The movie’s lack of direction grows tiring after a while, but Lynch’s unfettered drive to let his mind unload is never less than fascinating."

Eric Kohn
