Lantana: This
Austrailian film has an ensemble cast featuring Anthony LaPaglia, Geoffrey
Rush, and Barbara Hershey. This movie is not standard; it has plenty
of character development and the writing is o.k. The rating of this
film is such simply because it is too slow and not very exciting.
Rating 2.5 out
of 4. (2/3/02)

Lumumba: This
French film documents the political life and actual death of Patrice Lumumba,
first Prime Minister of the Independent Congo. This is one of the
best bio-pics I have seen, showing a man that stands for true independence
and a man that pays the ultimate price for his ethics. This film
solidified the thought in my mind to never go into politics. Rating
3.5

Legend of Bagger Vance: Will
Smith, Matt Damon, and Cherlize Theron star in this Robert Redford golf
film. These 4 big names can't help this weak story. If you
really want to see a golf movie, go rent "Tin Cup" or "Caddyshack".

Legend of Drunken Master: Jackie
Chan's latest American release was released originally in 1994. The
stunts performed in this martial arts film are among the best I have seen.
As with most Chan movies, the plot is ridiculous but that's not why I go
see his movies. Rating 3 out of 4. (10/27/00)
