  This film is awful. There are no likeable characters, the script is clunky, full of bland conversation and laboured cliche. It doesn't even believe in the ... read more »

  Surprising and sexual drama!
  
  So tasty, in fact, that Little Children is one of the most interesting films of recent years. It is far from the greatest, and is not devoid of faults, but a ... read more »
