Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Little Children includes all the cliched scenarios of a midday TV sudser, but they're ratcheted up several seedy degrees.

fresh:
As in Field's first film, the characters are drawn with such compassion their follies become our own and their desires seem as vast as the night sky.

rotten:
I didn't like any of these characters, but I kept pulling for them anyway -- right up to the shock-o-riffic ending, when I felt I'd been sucker-punched.
– Jim Emerson,

fresh:
Well-acted and meticulously crafted, Little Children can feel less like a full-blooded representation of life than a disquieting literary exercise.
– Robert Denerstein,

fresh:
Little Children is disturbing and smart and the best satire of modern American suburbia since American Beauty.
