Underrated gem. Dark, thought provoking and brilliantly acted. Adult themes run throughout a superbly crafted movie with excellent ending
It's starts kind of slow, but the ending is worth it
I feel like nobody really talks about this movie that just kinda works on every level. Don’t skip this one.
A story that reminds us why we shouldn't do any skating in our 30s
Such a disturbing, but unheralded movie. Deserves a lot more recognition.
This story is hard to describe, and I love that.
Great film with complex flawed characters... In the end they are all like the title.
Narration is both weird and necessary to give insight into what the characters are thinking. A thought provoking suburban tale.
Little Children is an engaging flick but is stolen from it's leads by the skin crawling performance from Jackie Earle Haley.
A truly disturbing movie that will stick with you. Great performances and complex characters.
