Baltimore Sun (Chris Kaltenbach)
At least "White Chicks" had a point behind the humor. ...read the complete Little Man movie review at Baltimore Sun (Chris Kaltenbach)
Seattle Post-Intelligencer (Winda Benedetti)
Yes, in this day and age, a tall man can pretend to be a very short man pretending to be a baby who uses his innocent disguise to molest women and whack men in the nuts. Isn't that funny? No, actually, not so much. ...read the complete Little Man movie review at Seattle Post-Intelligencer (Winda Benedetti)
The Onion (A.V. Club) (Keith Phipps)
It's seldom a good sign when a Rob Schneider cameo elevates a comedy, but Little Man aims so low and fires so often that it can't miss all the time. ...read the complete Little Man movie review at The Onion (A.V. Club) (Keith Phipps)
Los Angeles Times (Kevin Crust)
Devoid of verbal wit, instead relying on a relentless stream of Looney Tunes-inspired violence. ...read the complete Little Man movie review at Los Angeles Times (Kevin Crust)
The Hollywood Reporter (Michael Rechtshaffen)
Once the initial round of breast-feeding and rectal thermometer bits is fired off, the picture starts to give off the funky whiff of unattended Pampers. ...read the complete Little Man movie review at The Hollywood Reporter (Michael Rechtshaffen)
Variety (Justin Chang)
There are probably some moviegoers who can laugh at the sight of a groin-punching, breast-grabbing baby, possibly even find it cute. Everyone else should steer clear of Little Man, which welds Marlon Wayans' head to a diminutive body double, offering up ...read the complete Little Man movie review at Variety (Justin Chang)
DVD Talk (Eric D. Snider)
The Dallas Morning News
Nonetheless, the couple takes him in for the weekend. Hijinks ensue,
including violently soiled diapers. In one of the more disturbing
sequences, Calvin not only watches Vanessa and Darryl having sex from
the railing of ...read the complete Little Man movie review at The Dallas Morning News
Tail Slate (Brian Milinsky)
ViewLondon (Matthew Turner)
Abysmal comedy that's nonsensical, frequently offensive and almost entirely laugh-free.What's it all about?Marlon Wayans stars as short, baby-faced criminal Calvin Baby Face Sims, who is asked to steal a valuable diamond by mob boss Walken (Chazz Will ...read the complete Little Man movie review at ViewLondon (Matthew Turner)
The Independent (Anthony Quinn)
The world of cinema - actually, let's just make that "the world" - would be so much finer a place without the Wayans brothers (Keenen, Shawn, Kim, Marlon et al), not to mention the other members of the family that get involved in their films. Having ...read the complete Little Man movie review at The Independent (Anthony Quinn)
Qwipster's Movie Reviews (Vince Leo)
They superimposed Marlon Wayans' (The Ladykillers, Scary Movie 2) head on the body of a young dwarf to create the effect of making him look small, but one part of him did appear to shrink down to tiny size during the conception stage of this abysmal film ...read the complete Little Man movie review at Qwipster's Movie Reviews (Vince Leo)
New York Post (Lou Lumenick)
Sexual and toilet humor plumb new depths in Keenen Ivory Wayans' Little Man, which will stink up theaters like several gross of dirty diapers. ...read the complete Little Man movie review at New York Post (Lou Lumenick)
San Francisco Chronicle (Peter Hartlaub)
A bunch of gags, most of which you've seen in the trailer, strung together by any means necessary. ...read the complete Little Man movie review at San Francisco Chronicle (Peter Hartlaub)
Entertainment Weekly (Lisa Schwarzbaum)
With so much crotchcentric action in the Wayans brothers' new lowest-brow comedy — always a hilarious place to get whomped — you'd think that a striver couple (Shawn Wayans and Kerry Washington) considering parenthood would notice ...read the complete Little Man movie review at Entertainment Weekly (Lisa Schwarzbaum)
The New York Times (Nathan Lee)
Somewhere within all the crude slapstick and crass stereotypes, Little Man operates as a vulgar burlesque on the crisis of African-American manhood, particularly the relationships, or lack thereof, between fathers and sons. ...read the complete Little Man movie review at The New York Times (Nathan Lee)
Film Threat, Hollywood's Indie Voice
I remember when the Wayanses were a group of people with ambitions who looked as if they actually had something to contribute to the film world as well as the comedy world. From the timeless classic I'm Gonna Git You Sucka! right down to the sometimes ...read the complete Little Man movie review at Film Threat, Hollywood's Indie Voice
Austin Chronicle (Marrit Ingman)
In my role as your servant, I’ve seen a lot of people get hit in the crotch. Please don’t ask me why filmmakers find crotch injuries funny; all I can do is warn you that they’re there. It is especially unfunny when parents get hit in the crotch by ...read the complete Little Man movie review at Austin Chronicle (Marrit Ingman)
RopeofSilicon.com (Laremy Legel)
What we have here (or heeeaaah) is the story of one tiny man. A wee person, a little pocket sized guy if I could be so bold. This Little Man gets out of prison and commences directly with a jewelry store robbery using his tiny skills and the help of ...read the complete Little Man movie review at RopeofSilicon.com (Laremy Legel)
