Exiled Audience Reviews

BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment
NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
tsel-3 Law & Order fans will appreciate the return of Chris Noth to the setting, and also the slightly longer look at New York City, which obviously cannot be caught in the pacing of a regular episode. The film does seem to attempt to crowd in a few too many Law & Order characters from the period and the years previous to it, and sometimes the pacing is a little slow. Dana Eskelson is adorable as a Logan's partner, a detective who grew up around the Uzielli crime family, and takes this and her status as a woman on the force to mean she has something to prove. Ice-T is hilarious as an absurdly named pimp, but Nicole Ari Parker's performance as victim's sister and Logan's love interest is lackluster and unconvincing. All in all, this movie is not a waste of your time, if you are a Law & Order junkie like the rest of us.
KatharineFanatic I admit, having two hours to kill on a winter afternoon puts you in the mood to curl up with a blanket and watch a good crime drama. "Exiled" has its high points, but unless you're an enormous fan of Mike Logan (and I know lots of people that are) this one isn't going to tempt your taste buds much. It follows his "exile" from Manhattan to the outer district, and his attempt through a homicide case to get back into the big leagues, with run-ins with former associates along the way.Having seen many, many L&O episodes, enough to know the characters pretty well, I felt a lot of them were spot on. Logan's relationship with Lennie seemed plausible after the time the two spent together. I also wasn't nearly as disapproving of his scene with McCoy as others have been -- I felt Jack was the same as usual, a little frustrated with being bullied and not terribly pleased to see Logan again. The hatred Van Buren seemed to have for him was off, but I have to say the bright moments in the script are woven between the regular L&O gang (namely Lennie and Jack's three and a half minute appearance in a mental arm wrestle against Logan's demands that a task force be put into place to solve a crime) and the sadder situations ... a scene close to the end dealing with the crooked cop angle.It wasn't a total waste of time, but nothing I would go to any lengths to see again.
Jim Longo All right, all right, I was ecstatic as the next L&O junkie when I heard that Chris Noth would reprise his role as Mike Logan. I looked forward to this movie for months, lying to every friend, family member, and creditor I have that I was absolutely, positively, unavailable that particular Sunday night. I even told my roommate that he was going to have to live without the X-Files for 1 week.Mulder and Scully, you never looked so good.It wasn't that this was a bad movie. It's that it took the easy way out in many cases, which is something Law and Order never does. It was a paint-by-numbers cop drama, and didn't try to be anything else.I won't spoil the plot by pointing out the various pointless twists--let's just say that anyone with a nodding familiarity with the genre will see the ending a mile away. What really struck me was how hard the writers were trying to make this a "one-lone-cop-against-the-bureaucracy" story. That might have worked with brand new characters, but we've all watched Mike Logan, Lennie Briscoe, Anita Van Buren, and Jack McCoy for years. We know how they're going to react to situations and to each other. Logan's difficulties with McCoy in this film are plausible--they were never all that friendly during their one year together. But his confrontation with Briscoe seems forced, and the mutual animosity with Van Buren is way out of left field. Logan risked his career for her at one point--over Briscoe's objections. So how exactly does she label him "self-absorbed"?All in all, it left a bad taste in my mouth. The characters and the actors both deserved better.
D'Amico I quit watching "Law & Order" for awhile after they fired Noth, but this movie did not live up to my expectations. The character of Mike Logan may have been wild, but he was always by the book. Letting Miss Taylor get away with the murder of her sister was far too unbelievable, almost as unbelievable as Logan falling in love with her.While it was great to see Chris Noth back in the role he perfected from 1990 to 1995, this storyline really could have been better written. At least on the series Logan had redeeming qualities. In the movie, he bordered on obsessive compulsive with some sort of twin complex. Jerry Orbach and Benjamin Bratt seemed to be in the movie only to show that yes, it was connected to the series in a way. It's infortunate that a movie viewer had to be a regular series viewer to get some of the nuances, since the series itself is now bottom-dwelling with "The X Files" and "NYPD Blue" for the "Weirdest Soap Opera of the Year" award.The movie had its plusses, with some of the well-used NBC guest stars such as Costas Mandylor and Ice-T (it was a wonder that Frank John Hughes didn't show up as well), but basically it was a cheap attempt to appease the L&O fans that screamed for justice after Noth's firing three years ago.
