Genius. Funny, dramatic, sexy, tons of tension! Amazing acting all around, great writing. Kate Winslet must get an Oscar nomination for this. *edit* She did! And she would have won if it weren't for Helen Mirren's mimickry of the Queen. :P
One of my favourite movies ever!! Reminds me of happiness, maybe because of the scene with Jane Adams. This movie has it all, great storyline(s), good camerawork, good acting. The characters are well crafted, only I wanted to see more of jane. I can recommend it to everyone who w...( read more)
Wasn't expecting anything but was a nice surprise. Jackie Earle Haley is brilliant, he really improved the narrative.
Ugh, such a boring movie, didn't like it at all even though I think Kate is a great actress.
a completely wasted premise. the movie dropped the ball at every opportunity and was a complete let down.
I love you Kate, but I hate this movie. I get what it was trying to say... but uhhhhh....
UHHHHHHH!
I stumbled across this tasty little goody while channel surfing one night. It quickly got and held my attention first, because I like the actresses (Kate Winslet & Jennifer Connolly) and second, because of the interesting and intertwined story lines. This movie was well written ...( read more)
A depressing psychological drama that focuses on the most common conflicts and intense emotional states taken to an extreme, caused mainly by our ignorance, unfaithfulness and hipocresy, but specially because of our own personality conflicts. A modern rare gem with a nice cast an...( read more)
A very dramatic piece of cinema making where all the lives of the characters intertwine. There are some strong themes in the movie and they are not swept under the carpet. Excellent performances all round and I'd recommend it highly.
It's a great movie. The little children of the title are not only the kids of the characters, but the movie shows that the main characters are still children and in one night, they'll all learn to grow up. Because like the narrator said at the end "it had to start somewhere".

Good character gallery. It's nice for a change to see something big put in a small realistic story.
Well set up with really interesting characters and interactions, i just found the final climax and ending lacking a bit in conclusiveness, there was more I wanted from the different characters. But... yeah. Maybe I should read the book.
Great story, great actors but something fails because at the end so many great things werent that much. Still been good.
The movie was good overall, but the narrator almost ruined it for me. I understand that it is difficult to adapt a novel into a movie, but the director should have had more faith in his actors. Without the narration this would probably have gotten one more star from me. One silly...( read more)
a terrific movie, full of emotion. beautiful, great acting, got me caught in it with every character, every second, scared that something bad might happen to them.
The subject matter is a little disturbing, but the movie is very good. Worth watching.
Odd movie. I hated it the first time I watched it, then it came to grow on me. Strangely hypnotic but not for every taste.
this movie is kinda fucked up but it really draws you in. you catch yourself in the mood for a slow film i recommend this one. Its actually one of the best films i ever seen
Simple and engaging with a great script and great, great performances. The narration is at first a bit tiresome and obvious but by the end is just another wonderful character. It's wonderful how the film manages to shed so much light on so many things without ever judging or bein...( read more)
I'm glad Kate didn't leave with Patrick because then, this movie would have been the second movie in wich she let her children down.
i found it disguised, huh!
the movie is bit slow but i liked it so far. All actors truely explained their given characters. i liked the flow of different happenings along with the story.
Kate Winslet is one amazing actor i believe. she did it so well and Jackie Earle is the re...( read more)
interesting and entertaining. not really sure what the point was though. i really only watched it to see jackie earle haley so i could see if he's fit to be freddy ya digg!!
An intensely compelling and quietly devastating look at what makes us comfortable & educated human beings crave another existence when tempted with the promise of passionate escapism. Todd Field is even able to surpass the narrative skill and fuzzy texture that polished his previ...( read more)
i'm gonna say just one word "i like this movie" and thnx melonhead27 for recommeding me to watch it :-D
Decent enough interweaving character piece with an outstanding performance by Haley. Connelly was underused and it had an "oscars please" whiff to it, but it was still watchable and well directed.
The narrator nearly ruined this movie for me, but, in the end, it pulled through. 1
Definately not my kind of movie. I felt like I've seen this type of movie so many times, I lost interest in it...not that I was really interested from the start. The beginning didn't make much sense until you actually got into the movie. Once it was over, all I thought was 'what ...( read more)
I wonder about people and why they do some things they do. I could not see why Kate liked this guy.
The acting was fantastic. I enjoyed watching the growth of the characters. The movie was very character-driven.
Bit of an odd film, but interesting in terms of the narrative. At first I really liked the characters, and how they all intertwined - the events that linked them etc, but nearer the end I didn't enjoy it very much. And the narrator was really quite irritating! But I think that's...( read more)
...gripping...powerful...these words and many more can only describe the performences and excecution of the brilliant morality tale...
Kate Winslet never ceases to amaze me. "Little Children" may very well be the best of the stuck-in-the-suburbs subgenre drama. Yes better than "American Beauty." Yes better than "Virginia Woolf." Winslet is Sarah, a selfish young mother stuck in adolescence, just as her extramari...( read more)
when i didnt see the cover of this movie
i thought this can be watch by young adults...
but when i watched
there some man sweats his face after the underwear of his opposite sex
not too good
for children...
Well, I must say that I'm not impressed with what Todd Field did in this movie... The directing style was quite weird, the story got no point, yet the editing was a disaster... I really don't have any idea at all how can this movie get 3 Oscar nominee... For Kate Winslet as the l...( read more)
well umn just seen this movie 4 the 1st time n think that this is a good movie 2 watch its got a good cast of actors/actressess throughout this movie...i think that kate winslet, jennifer connelly, patrick wilson, jackie earle haley, nah emmerich, phyllis somerville play good rol...( read more)
