8/10
La Vie En Rose
(2007)
"A gripping look at hard times in pre WWII Paris and a passionate lead performance make this film a must-see for Piaf aficionados around the world."
[movie review]
Monsters and Critics
7/10
Lassie
(2006)
"Lassie déjà vu filmed in the magnificent British Isles with more than enough animal stampedes to enthrall an entire theatre of ten year olds, and their parents."

7/10
The Last Winter
(2007)
"A well done low budget indie production that lets the viewers' imagination picture how bad it gets when mother earth is finally pushed past the breaking point"
[movie review]
Monsters and Critics
7/10
Le Petit Lieutenant
(2006)
""Hill Street Blues" set in Paris, Xavier Beauvois updates film noir with a gritty tale of a tough woman in a tough city."

Monsters and Critics
8/10
The Lemon Tree
(2008)
"A near perfect allegory of the deadlocked struggle for peace in the Middle East, this is rising star Hiam Abbass' best performance to date."

Monsters and Critics
8/10
The Limits of Control
(2009)
"The medium is the message in this slow but sure road piece. Little action and almost no dialog emphasize the seductive photography and make a film that keeps moving in spite of itself."
[movie review]
Monsters and Critics
6/10
Lions for Lambs
(2007)
"One successful story out of three is not good enough as Redford steps up to the plate. Too little first rate photography and too much collegiate tedium."
[movie review]
Monsters and Critics
5/10
Little Man
(2005)
"An experiment in the brave new world of same-sex child-bearing goes badly and is turned into a film."
[movie review]
Monsters and Critics
8/10
The Lives of Others
(2006)
"A neatly crafted thriller with first rate acting, directing and writing combined with spy paraphernalia and political intrigue. Fully deserving of its status as Germany's Best Foreign Film Oscar nominee."
[movie review]
Monsters and Critics
7/10
Lockdown
(2006)
"Mandatory viewing for those fighting for legal reform."
[movie review]
Monsters and Critics
7/10
Look
(2007)
"Even if "Look" exploits reality TV by boosting a sub-marginal plot with very realistic security camera footage it is still a great perspective into our brave new world"
[movie review]
Monsters and Critics
7/10
Looking for Comedy in the Muslim World
(2006)
"Albert Brooks unleashes a low-key cross-cultural comedy that takes the Muslim world by storm but flies over the heads of American shopping mall audiences."
[movie review]
Monsters and Critics
8/10
Lorna's Silence
(2009)
"A passionate exploration by the Dardenne brothers into greed and the power of men to do endless harm in the context of international politics."
[movie review]
Monsters and Critics
6/10
Lost Islands
(2008)
"A film of mixed feelings, Lost Islands seeks to show contented, vibrant family life leading to oedipal father-son conflict. Too much to hope for, this commendable goal fails to generate a strong conclusion."
[movie review]
Monsters and Critics
8/10
Lucky # Slevin
(2006)
"Even if the dialogue is too glib for the dark and ruthless heroes, a great cast and edgy story keep this thriller moving to the very end. "
[movie review]
Monsters and Critics
7/10
Lymelife
(2009)
"Pretty durn good family drama with very egalitarian lines distributed amongst young and old. Not an easy film to watch but there are lessons for everyone."
