Ladder 49 (2004) |
"Step-by-step predictable and not that entertaining." |
Steve Head |
Tomato 10/10 |
Lady and the Tramp (1955) |
"Lady and the Tramp: 50th Anniversary Edition not only reminds modern audiences of its deservedly immortal status, but provides a much-needed standard of comparison for more recent animated features." |

Splat 1.5/5 |
Lady in the Water (2006) |
"Lady in the Water is not a good movie - not by some mythical 'Shyamalan' standards, but by even the most basic standards of proficiency." |

Tomato 4/5 |
Ladykillers (2004) |
"The Ladykillers is filled with laughs, great characters and a twisted, black tale that stands the test of time 50 years after it was first conceived." |
Jeff Otto |
Splat 2/5 |
Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life (2003) |
"Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life has the dubious honor of not only being the most lackluster action/adventure film of 2003, but perhaps of the past several years, as well." |
Spence D. |
Tomato 3/5 |
Lars And The Real Girl (2007) |
"A sweet film brought to life by excellent performers, Lars and the Real Girl makes for a very soothing time at the movies." |
Filip Vukcevic |
Splat 0/5 |
Last Days (2005) |
"Van Sant has lost all touch with his audience in Last Days... It's an experiment and the result is utter nothingness." |
Jeff Otto |
Tomato 8/10 |
Last Hurrah for Chivalry (1978) |
"John Woo's early wuxia film shows how the action auteur developed some of his trademark themes." |
Todd Gilchrist |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Last King of Scotland (2006) |
"The Last King of Scotland belongs to Forest Whitaker. He is the key to making this Faustian bargain work." |
Stax |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
The Last Kiss (2006) |
"It's not Love Actually. It certainly ain't Pretty Woman. It isn't any movie Meg Ryan has ever been in. Unflinching and pessimistic, The Last Kiss is anything but escapist." |
Chris Carle |
Splat 2/5 |
The Last Mimzy (2007) |
"Despite its attempt at being well-meaning family genre fare a la E.T., The Last Mimzy simply collapses under the considerable weight of its many bewildering plot elements." |

The Last Shot (2004) |
"It succeeds in appearing not only to approximate a real Hollywood production, but to actually be one itself." |

Law Abiding Citizen (2009) |
"If you're looking for a movie that'll let you switch off your brain without insulting your intelligence, this might be the flick for you this weekend." |

Laws of Attraction (2004) |
"A hit and miss comedy that's never terrible and never great." |
Jeff Otto |
Tomato 4/5 |
Layer Cake (2005) |
"Crime caper in the style of Guy Ritchie, but better." |
Jeff Otto |
Splat 2/5 |
Leatherheads (2008) |

Splat 2.5/5 |
The Legend of Zorro (2005) |
"An entirely forgettable action film. There is nothing new about it, the action feels similar to a Universal stunt show and you've forgotten it before the exit." |
Jeff Otto |
Splat 2.5/5 |
Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events (2004) |
"The film struggles to mimic the simple, sublime truths which make Daniel Handler's books so appealingly vibrant." |
Glen Oliver |
Tomato 4/5 |
Let the Right One In (2008) |
"A bloodsucker story that's rich with originality and feeling, this Swedish import is a terrific love story and vampire tome that not only rewards the genre's fans but rekindles interest in its virtually exhausted foundations." |

Lions for Lambs (2007) |
"Lions for Lambs simply isn't fresh or courageous enough to make an impact let alone a difference." |
Stax |
Tomato 10/10 |
The Little Mermaid (1989) |
"The Little Mermaid finally receives proper homage as a significant cinematic achievement, in the process providing audiences with ample evidence that hand-drawn animation is as valuable as any of its contemporary CGI or even live-action compatriots." |
Todd Gilchrist |
Tomato 4.5/5 |
Little Miss Sunshine (2006) |
"It's got a little bit for everyone, an easily identifiable premise that makes anyone who thought their family was the nuttiest feel a little closer to normal." |
Jeff Otto |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Live Free or Die (2007) |
"The best aspect of Live Free or Die is its unpredictability. From Rugged pulling a gun out of a kitchen drawer to the sight of his rusty blue van rolling away without anyone inside, you never quite know what's going to happen next." |
Brian Zoromski |

London (2006) |
"London is a very simple character piece that is not for every taste. I recommend the film, but I fully expect some that see it based on my recommendation will curse my name come the end credits." |
Jeff Otto |
Tomato 3.5/5 |
Lonely Hearts (2007) |
"A consistently entertaining and occasionally gut-wrenching tale that deserves at least some measure of notice." |

The Longest Yard (2005) |
"A worthy remake and companion piece to the Reynolds film." |
Todd Gilchrist |
Splat 2/5 |
The Longshots (2008) |
"The based-on-a-true-story tale of Pop Warner's first female quarterback is a feelgood picture with not a single convention out of place that manages not to offend even if it also doesn't offer a single shred of originality." |
Todd Gilchrist |
Tomato 4/5 |
The Lookout (2007) |
"The Lookout makes it a solid and entertaining throwback to the crime thrillers of yesteryear." |

Lucky You (2007) |
"Lucky You is a decent and often engaging character study that deserved more respect from critics and the studio than it received." |

Lust, Caution (2007) |
"Lee's latest takes the Taiwanese director to China for a searing, sexy tale of espionage." |
