Confidential follows idealistic young policeman Ed Exley (Pearce) as a multiple homicide he is investigating turns into something much more insidious" [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            La Dolce Vita (1960)      "How many movies make you feel like a sophisticate just for having seen them?" [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            La Femme Nikita - The Complete First Season (1997)      "Broke welcome new ground with its reluctant heroine, a comparative rarity in fiction." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Ladder 49 (2004)      "[M]ight be feel-good, old-fashioned, cornball melodrama, but it’s a kind of feel-good that I guess I needed, that maybe more people than me still need." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Ladies in Lavender (2005)      "There’s a marvelous mythic sensibility to this lovely film about last chances and elemental emotions..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Lady In Question is Charles Busch (2006)      "Theater buffs will love the exploration of what fires one of the most creative minds at work in theater today..." [dvd review]      The Flick Filosopher       --      The Lady In Question is Charles Busch (2006)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Lady in the Water (2006)      "[I]t's easier to appreciate Lady in the Water than it is to embrace it emotionally.... [It] wants us to be sad and hopeful and in awe about a lot of things, but it didn't make me actually feel much of anything." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Lake of Fire (2007)      "Kaye shoots in black and white, a stark reminder of how there is no middle ground when it comes to abortion in America... and also, perhaps, a bit of a cushion against the authenticity of Kaye's harsh vision." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       3/10      Lake Placid (1999)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Lakeview Terrace (2008)      "Oh, to live to see such a rarity: a horror movie for grownups! No mad slashers... [j]ust the plausible pettiness of human nastiness slowly, inexorably building to a tragedy of suburban proportions." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Land of the Lost (2009)      "[M]erely a cynical attempt to mine some cash from one of the few remnants of Generation X's collective childhood that has yet to be picked over for the sake of nostalgia..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life (2003)      "Takes cool stuff like ancient myths and you call this archeology? and motorcycling along the Great Wall of China and using bubblegum like MacGyver and turns it all into something... supremely boring..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001)      "Any script that features dialogue about 'awesome and terrible powers' in an unironic way should be put out of its misery before someone gets hurt." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Lars And The Real Girl (2007)      "[A] perfect movie in all ways: it's far more inventive and adventurous than most movies dare, it's perfectly realized in all its many small details..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Last Castle (2001)      "The Last Castle packs a visceral wallop, and it'll catch you up in its thrall. But the punch it delivers later, when you realize, on reflection, exactly whom you were rooting for, is not such a pleasant one at all." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Last Detective: Complete Collection (2003)      "Davies may well be the nicest cop in the world, and a completely un-television one. It's the perfect role for Davison..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Last House on the Left (2009)      "[A]ssume[s] that the audience is a vicarious sexual sadist..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Last King of Scotland (2006)      "[G]etting lost in all the well-earned love for Whitaker is his costar, James McAvoy, the primary focus through which Whitaker's starburst prisms into its brilliance..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Last Kiss (2006)      "Braff is an absolutely charming screen presence, and redeems a should-be hateable character..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Last Legion (2007)      "[B]ereft of anything approaching the movie magic it is clearly desperate to evoke..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Last Man (2002)      "It's the end of the world as metaphor for how we scuttle relationships, and it's a remarkably apt one." [short review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Last Mimzy (2007)      "Sweet, smart, and tender: you can’t say that about too many science-fiction movies." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Last Minute (2002)      "A mess of stylistic busywork, pushy techno scoring, and unappealing characters doing things we couldn’t care less about." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Last Mistress (2008)      "Oh god, have I ever seen a more tedious 'erotic' movie than this one?" [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       6/10      Last Night (1998)      "Last Night is a certainly a thought-provoking film, if not a perfect one." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Last Resort (2001)      "A thoroughly and refreshingly internal tale of how the things that keep us from being truly free are within ourselves." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Last Samurai (2003)      "[S]o innocuous that it’s barely even there, blending into the beige walls of inoffensive mediocrity." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       9/10      The Last September (1999)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            The Last Temptation of Christ (1988)      "[A] Jesus flick I can get behind, even as an atheist...." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Late Night With Conan O'Brien - 10th Anniversary Special (2004)      "[A] riotous testament to [Conan’s] ongoing, quirky appeal..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Laurel Canyon (2003)      "McDormand and Bale are gods, of course, but the real delight here is Nivola." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Laverne & Shirley - The Complete First Season (1975)      "It’s hard to imagine that this idiotic sitcom was ever intended for adult consumption..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Law & Order: Criminal Intent - The First Year (2001)      "[I]t's almost merciless, how D'Onofrio rivets the viewer's attention..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       --      Law & Order: Special Victims Unit - The First Year (1999)      Click here to see the review! [short review]      The Flick Filosopher            Law & Order: Special Victims Unit - The Premiere Episode (1999)      "[O]ffers more focus on the cops and their personal lives without sacrificing the never-sensationalized police-procedural aspect..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Law Abiding Citizen (2009)      "[E]mblematic of the unpleasant streak that runs through the American zeitgeist today... that we have to do away with... the rule of law and that pesky Constitution in order to 'save' America..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Lawless Heart (2002)      "As heartbreaking as grief itself and as unexpectedly lovely as that warm certainty that our beloved friends and family continue to inspire us even after they’re gone." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       9/10      Lawrence of Arabia (1962)      "This is a film for the ages." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Laws of Attraction (2004)      "[A]spires to [nothing] more than awkward running gags that start out as illuminating snatches of characterization and don’t know where to stop." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003)      "It grows into its suckiness -- it's not sure what to do with it at first, and then it gets comfortable with the idea that it's sucking, and then it wholly embraces it..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Legally Blonde (2001)      "Your honor, the evidence will show that just because the movie my client is associated with is silly doesn't mean it doesn't have something smart to say." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Legally Blonde 2: Red, White and Blonde (2003)      "The film’s appeal relies almost entirely on the delightful Reese Witherspoon... who balances irresistibly bright smiles and bubble-gum charm with intestinal fortitude and a dogged determination not to be knocked off her Jimmy Choos." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       9/10      The Legend of 1900 (1998)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       9/10      The Legend of Bagger Vance (1999)      "A magic-realism golf pastoral, a stunningly lovely film with few faults." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       55/100      The Legend of Lobo (1962)      "A lot less charming than it surely was back in the Kennedy era." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Legend of Suriyothai (2003)      "[S]tolid and solemn [and] surprisingly dull..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events (2004)      "If Tim Burton made a Harry Potter movie, it might look something like this gothic wedding cake of a flick, all evil curlicues and black lace..." [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher            Leonard Cohen: I'm Your Man (2006)      "How odd, that someone would make a documentary about Leonard Cohen with so little Leonard Cohen in it!" [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher       9/10      Les Miserables (1998)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      The Flick Filosopher
