The New York Times
At its best, L.I.E. offers a rich, dark, bitter slice of contemporary life. But the film's arty embellishments undermine its bleak vision, making it, in the end, a little too easy to take. Full Review
Edward Guthmann
San Francisco Chronicle
A provocative, upsetting film. Full Review
Jay Carr
Boston Globe
Superior and original filmmaking. You won't be able to take your eyes off it. Full Review
Kevin Thomas
Los Angeles Times
L.I.E. has embraced tragedy, folly, perversity and outrageous dark humor. Like "Happiness" and "American Beauty," it takes an unflinching look at the darker aspects of life in American suburbia. Full Review
Michael O'Sullivan
Washington Post
