A liquid crystal display device in which light leak and a tint change when being seen from an oblique direction at the time of black display are suppressed. The liquid crystal display device includes: a liquid crystal cell and a pair of polarizing plates that are disposed such that the liquid crystal cell is interposed between the pair of polarizing plates, in which a tilt angle of the liquid crystal compound is 1.0° or less, respective color filters that are disposed on respective pixel regions of the liquid crystal cell are provided between the pair of polarizing plates, Rth of the respective color filters satisfy predetermined requirements, the polarizing plate that is disposed on the visible side among the pair of polarizing plates includes an optical compensation layer and a polarizer in this order from the liquid crystal cell side, and the optical compensation layer satisfies a predetermined requirement.
