L.I.E. (2001) |
"A relentlessly glum, distasteful and moralistic coming-of-age story." |
Dave Kehr |
Tomato 7/10 |
La Ley De Herodes (2000) |
"Juan arms himself with a rewritten town constitution and a pistol. Kinky sex and ill-gotten dinero shortly follow." |

Steven Boone |
Tomato |
Lantana (2001) |

Ross Brooks |
Splat 6/10 |
Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life (2003) |
"Calling it 'Tomb Raider of the Lost Ark' is too easy, but the similarities are striking." |
Dan Fazio |
Splat |
Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001) |
"Not much here, apart from Lara's snugly tailored costumes and some entertainingly old-fashioned production design by Kirk Petruccelli." |

Last Resort (2001) |
"As in Loach's films, the only real villains are the low-level bureaucrats of the welfare system -- a simplistic notion, to say the least." |
Dave Kehr |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Last Samurai (2003) |
"Delivers thrilling action, gorgeous cinematography, beautiful locations and Oscar-worthy performances." |
Bill Pearis |
Splat 2/4 |
Late Marriage (2001) |
"The screenplay is too obvious in its critique of arranged marriages, and its portrayal of Zaza's malicious parents is smugly cynical." |
Justin Hartung |
Splat 6/10 |
Laurel Canyon (2003) |
"The chemistry between McDormand, Ian and goody-two-shoes Alex is soggy rather than sexy." |
J. C. Farrow |
Splat 3/10 |
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003) |
"Young boys may appreciate the flick's cool gadgets and gee-whiz sensibility, but fans of Alan Moore's graphic novel will be appalled. The rest of us will just be bored." |

Left Behind - The Movie (2001) |
"Behind weaves a satisfactorily compelling end-of-the-world drama." |
Sean O'Connell |

Dave Kehr |
Splat 2/10 |
Legally Blonde 2: Red, White and Blonde (2003) |
"This flick's lazy attempts at humor -- especially making Bob Newhart say 'fo shizzle my nizzle' -- fall way short of the original." |
Dan Fazio |
Splat |
The Legend of Bagger Vance (1999) |
"Apple-cheeked Damon is miscast as the tortured, dissolute protagonist, and Will Smith is as unctuous as a game show host." |
Dave Kehr |
Tomato |
The Legend of Drunken Master (1994) |
"The 20-minute closing duel may just be the best kung-fu battle ever filmed." |
Eyal Goldshmid |

Legend of Suriyothai (2003) |
"It's easy to marvel at this film's epic scope and wondrous visuals, but we're left wondering how much better the original must be." |

Levity (2003) |
"Solomon tries to convince us that reasonably sane people would be drawn to this mysterious man. In reality, you'd cross the street to avoid contact with anyone as obviously creepy as Manuel Jordan." |
Bill Pearis |
Splat |
Liam (2001) |

The Life of David Gale (2003) |
"As the mystery unravels, the movie builds to such a ludicrous crescendo, you'll wish Keyser Soze did it." |

Life or Something Like It (2002) |
"Too clumsy in key moments ... to make a big splash." |
Dan Fazio |
Splat |
Light It Up (1999) |
"The exposition that rushes us into the police standoff is so painfully forced and phony that the only way to keep watching the movie is to take it as either dark comedy or one of those cheap Die Hard knockoffs." |
Steven Boone |
Tomato 7/10 |
Like Mike (2002) |
"The movie's gravity-defying dunks are a lot to swallow, but Bow Wow is likable as a down-on-his-luck orphan abused by his greedy guardian." |
Jackie Potts |

"It's pure nightmare fuel and a blast to watch." |
Michael Phillips |
Tomato 8/10 |
Little Secrets (2001) |
"Those who say there are no intelligent PG movies out there ought to hightail it to Little Secrets -- a smart, witty and thoroughly modern yarn." |
Jackie Potts |

J. C. Farrow |
