La Mentale: The Code (2004) |
"Although it offers no new angles on the story engines of loyalty and revenge, the French film boasts an intriguing milieu and the off-center, hair-trigger intensity of Samy Naceri as a crime boss." |
Sheri Linden |
Tomato |
La Moustache (2005) |
"At its most stimulating, Moustache is a keen glimpse into a marriage that appears perfect on the surface but when examined shows its deficiencies." |

La Vie En Rose (2007) |
"Untidy and self-conscious, the movie nevertheless pulls together a vivid portrait of Edith Piaf." |
Kirk Honeycutt |
Splat |
La Vie Promise |
"Lacks much in the way of compelling narrative or credible characterizations, but it once again reaffirms Huppert's place in the pantheon of French film actors." |

Ladies in Lavender (2005) |

Lady in the Water (2006) |
"Shyamalan does project genuine menace and suspense into this mundane location, especially in nighttime scenes. But the magic that would transport you from reality into fantasy is missing." |

Frank Scheck |
Splat |
Ladykillers (2004) |
"The Coens' remake of a comedy classic flounders amid extreme caricatures and stained humor." |
Kirk Honeycutt |

Kirk Honeycutt |

Lagerfeld Confidential (2007) |
"Unfortunately, those without extensive previous knowledge of Lagerfeld's legendary career will find little here to enlighten them, a sad waste considering the relative lack of serious cinematic explorations into the fashion world." |
Frank Scheck |
Splat |
The Lake House (2006) |
"More a valentine to Chicago's architecture than the aching love story it purports to be, The Lake House is a slow-moving, never-igniting tale of calendar-crossed lovers that grows less convincing as it proceeds." |

Lan Yu (2002) |

"About as subtle as its all too obvious title would suggest." |
Frank Scheck |
Splat |
Land of the Lost (2009) |
"Lame sketch comedy, an uninspired performance from Will Ferrell and an overall failure of the imagination turn Brad Silberling's Land of the Lost into a lethargic meander through a wilderness of misfiring gags." |
