A woman receives the chance to relive the life of her younger self, at a point in her life when the pressures of adulthood become too much for her to bear.
Remixes and twists on classics, Hollywood's bread and butter to drop lots of movies with each weekend that passes. This weekend that trend continues, as Tom Hanks beloved Big gets reversed to a smaller proportion. With lots of advertising and the hopes that it will do extremely well this weekend, this comedy looks to be cute and fun for a movie adventure. So what is in store? Well Robbie K is back again with yet another review and it is time to see if the latest comedy will keep you laughing or leave you scoffing. Let's get started as we review;
Movie: Little (2019)
Director: Tina Gordon (as Tina Gordon Chism) Writers: Tracy Oliver (story by), Tina Gordon (as Tina Gordon Chism) Stars: Regina Hall, Issa Rae, Marsai Martin
LIKES:
Fun Cute Acting Soundtrack Morals
SUMMARY: The name of the game is fun in this installment. Little finds a way to relive the magic of Big and help gain a second childhood in the modern-day world. My friend and I had a blast with the little adventure at hand as both characters tackle the new challenges put before them in the worlds they are forced to face. The jokes were on point and well timed, keeping in theme with the energy of the movie. Part of this comes from the cute atmosphere established with the writing of this movie, mature enough to hit the older audience, yet still young enough to hit the teenagers and young adult crowd.
The acting helps to make this movie pop, Issa Rae works the assistant scene quite well, sass and innocence building together quite well to make a likeable character. She helps balance out the silliness, yet still add to it in her own manner that breaks up some of the monotony this film chooses to approach. As for young actress Marsai Martin, she's got quite a start to the acting career and I look forward to seeing the young girl in future installments. She's got the attitude of an adult down pat, sass blending with some comedic relief and childish moments that are quite balanced for a movie like this. Nevertheless, the chemistry between all cast both primary and secondary groups work well and I quite enjoyed seeing the teamwork bring the characters to life.
Yet, part of the fun comes from a killer soundtrack, new and old tracks coming together to capture the feelings of the scenes. The cultural representation the sound editor picked was extremely awesome, and had me dancing in my seat while also wanting to break out my phone to look up the songs. Even smarter, is that much of the movie's song sort of emphasize the other part I like of this movie, the morals that are embedded in this film. Yes, like many movies the morals are preachy and baked right in, but Little finds a way to mesh those lessons into some fun moments that help you enjoy what you are learning. Finding some lessons that are relevant, Little gets props for helping the audience dig deep and look into themselves to find their own abilities.
Dislikes:
Predictable Fast Missed opportunities Some pointless character introductions Story points that are limited Trailers give away much
SUMMARY: Predictable thy name is comedy and Little tries hard to defy the expected jokes and plot lines this movie sets up a mile away. Little's focus on having fun means using the same tricks to get a laugh and the same means to get to the end of the story. Rather than leading to a build up, with areas that require intense focus, discovery, and a major push to get better, Little takes the fast approach to getting through the film. It's okay, but the movie had a lot of hinted opportunities that showed promise, but then dropped the ball leading to some disappointing moments. This was especially true with the teacher scenes that the trailers loved to highlight, characters that held potential with their introduction, but reduced to comedic props that didn't quite pack the kick I think they wanted. Some of the story points as well had the same issues going the same way, hints of fun adventures and the growth of characters that quickly fizzled out. Finally, the trailers are good at revealing much of the movie and there isn't too much one needs to see past the highlights they showed. Little falls victim to showing off too much, leaving little to the imagination outside of some of more engaging dialogue and a few romance scenes.
The VERDICT:
Little is fun, simple as that, but the movie needs some refining to be the classic that Big was presenting long ago. This new spin is cute, hits the target audience members well, and does the job of teaching you the important lessons with baked in, heartwarming goodness. While the movie is funny to so many levels, it is still very predictable and had so many avenues to go down for comedy that they left unfulfilled. Thus, the potential for going to see in the theaters is lessened by the trailers and lack of finesse that they were going for, and I recommend waiting on this one for home viewing. Still, check this one out eventually if you are looking for the means to have a good laugh fest for simplistic fun.
My scores are:
Comedy/Fantasy/Romance: 6.5 Movie Overall: 5.0
Movie: Little (2019)
Director: Tina Gordon (as Tina Gordon Chism) Writers: Tracy Oliver (story by), Tina Gordon (as Tina Gordon Chism) Stars: Regina Hall, Issa Rae, Marsai Martin
