  Enjoyable film
  
  Apart from the gross over-acting by Brenda Blethyn and Michael Caine this was a very enjoyable film. Jane Horrocks has an amazing voice.

  Little Voice
  
  Excellent film with great characters. Jane Horrocks is fantastic as the main star. Overall, very entertaining but be prepared for quite a lot of swearing.

  A Caine triumph - but nothing else.
  
  Little Voice is a very slight film in every sense. The story is paper thin, utterly predictable and completely uninvolving. The characters are below even base ... read more »
