Movie Reviews

San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by Mick LaSalleOne of the best crime dramas to come along in years.
Montreal Film Journal - 10/10 by Kevin N. LaforestL.A. Confidential is the closest thing to a classic cop movie you could imagine, a throwback to a few decades ago.
Window to the Movies - 10/10 by Jeffrey ChenIt demands that the viewer pay attention, not assuming for one second that its audience may consist of dummies. That audience is rewarded with an environment oozing with atmosphere.
Cinema em Cena - 10/10 by Pablo VillaçaPode parecer impossível, mas ainda se pode fazer um ótimo filme noir hoje em dia.
Rolling Stone - 10/10 by Peter TraversAgainst all odds, L.A. Confidential succeeds brilliantly, right down to Jerry Goldsmith's score, which evokes his haunting theme from Chinatown without being haunted by it.
Q Network Film Desk - 10/10 by James KendrickDestined to be one of the best, if not the best, of the year.
Los Angeles Times - 10/10 by Kenneth TuranL.A. Confidential, with an exceptional ensemble cast directed by Curtis Hanson from James Ellroy's densely plotted novel, looks to be the definitive noir for this particular time and place.
The New York Times - 10/10 by Janet MaslinA tough, gorgeous, vastly entertaining throwback to the Hollywood that did things right. As such, it enthusiastically breaks most rules of studio filmmaking today.
Seattle Times - 10/10 by John HartlHanson has directed a number of clever suspense films, but this one puts everything else he's done in the shade. L.A. Confidential is at the same time his most personal movie and Hollywood filmmaking at its best.
Rochester Democrat and Chronicle - 10/10 by Jack GarnerSpeaking strictly on the record, and not at all hush-hush: Don't miss L.A. Confidential.
