Little

Worst hairdo in the history of movies.

A fresh twist on the body-swap genre, Little delivers plenty of laughs with a heartfelt message about self-growth and second chances. Marsai Martin shines as the younger version of Regina Hall’s no-nonsense boss, bringing energy and charm to every scene. Issa Rae adds warmth and humor as the overwhelmed assistant caught in the chaos. While predictable at times, the film’s fun performances and positive message make it an enjoyable watch.

Regina Hall and Issa Rae star in the 2019 comedy "Little," which aims to deliver laughs for the year. Unfortunately, the film mostly misses the mark. While it contains a few standout moments that do bring some humor, overall, it tends to lack the comedic punch that viewers expect. Instead of feeling like a lighthearted romp, it often seems more demanding and unconventional, detracting from the comedy experience. The screenplay leaves much to be desired; it doesn't quite meet the high standards typically associated with successful comedic films. The timing of the jokes feels a bit off, largely due to the performance of the young actress, who struggles to hold her own alongside the two seasoned stars. This isn't to say her performance was poor or that the film is completely without merit, but it does come across as the kind of movie you watch once, only to forget about it shortly after. There were enjoyable elements in the film, and some moments genuinely resonated, but overall, it doesn't live up to the expectations of a good comedy. The pacing also drags, particularly leading into the third act, which feels like a missed opportunity to capitalize on the buildup. Ultimately, this is a film that lacks rewatchability for me. If you find yourself drawn to it and wanting to see it again, that's fantastic, as every movie deserves its audience. However, for me, "Little" is one of those films I wouldn't choose to revisit.

Can’t recommend this, execution was not it. Most of the movie made me cringe

Genuinely felt grossed out and uncomfortable when watching this. The comedy was definitely a weird type, and I just felt so gross watching a child say all of that (even if she is acting).

Painfully bad. The acting and bullying portrayed is very uncomfortable to watch. It feels like a devils wear Prada mixed with one of the parent and child body swapping movies from the 90s. I tried to watch it but I could not. It just needed a bit more script editing to make it more believable. Oh, I do have to say the kiddo does a decent job with the what was given her.

I very much enjoyed this movie; however, sometimes the Little cup of comedy gets overfilled from time to time.

it's a worn-out formula at this point using the age reversal story but with great talents like Issa Rae and Regina Hall it manages to work delivering some significant heartfelt moments 'Black-ish' star Marsai Martin also gives a pretty terrific performance plus she's an executive producer on the project the film looks very polished which impressed me a lot as you know the movie focuses on Jordan whom at age 13 was constantly bullied for her hair and not fitting in her parents reassured her that when she was all grown-up her intelligence would make her sucessfull and that she could turn the tables on those that made fun of her it seems to work in her favor yet she's become a cruel, powerful executive of a company trying to develop an app that will launch their business her assistant, April has an idea for a pitch but is reluctant to share for it might get turned down then a girl outside the office makes a wish on Jordan that'll show her what it's like to being her age and wouldnt you know it she wakes up the next morning back into her 13 year-old self again the hi-jinks ensue from then on; April is the only one she can trust to run the company, Jordan gets to re-live being little again despite not wanting to take the plunge because of the painful memories the laughs are plentiful and despite a number of subplots that get dropped entirely the movie works because of these lead actresses you can still learn so much whether being a kid or an adult, bullies will always come from every corner making you feel less special, is it better to not care and go after others first before they do?, nobody else can define you but yourself, be comfortable with who you really are and not what you expect everyone to accept, growing up is what we all do at some point in our lives but we cannot lose sight of the innocence of childhood we once had an overly-familiar concept gets by with a great child actor and some female comedians with a lot of charisma and charm

5/10 - Bad, but shows that narcissists don't change.

I thought it was OK overall and had a great cast, but the script could have been better as there was opportunity to get redemption from the past while building the future. Some of the script was wasted and could have been better spent on even including some of her old classmates which it didn't
