Pravesh Mishra I don't agree with the critics on this one at all. Little Boy is a good movie that combines different human feelings altogether in a movie. It is very good narration of love,compassion and hope. Little doesn't loses any hope rather always gets inspired about finding his father. Little Boy gets convinced on him moving the the mountain whereas earthquake happened coincidentally making it look like Little Boy did it for all those were watching the scene;Mrs.Busbee says she will always remain Mrs.James Busbee all her life to the doctor; Little boys brother realizing his mistake and saving Hashi Moto's life;Little boy completing the list to help bring his father by believing it. All these are lessons in the movie that provides you with relief on watching the movie!!
floraposteschild A little boy, with the help of a colourful animal sidekick (aka an old Japanese man), endeavours to do God's will in an effort to bring his father home from World War II. Could a certain famous bomb become involved in the hijinks? Anything is possible! This movie inspired me to read a book. If only the producers had done the same. A poorly written waste of a fine cast, and Kevin James. Somehow, Little Boy manages to be even more racist than 1940s California, and profoundly uninformed about the times in which it is set. Putrid. Should be popular with Evangelicals. SPOILER: never mind the nuclear holocaust, daddy's home!
rural01-915-842423 "Little Boy" is by far the best movie I have seen in a very long time. There were so many positives in this film, that it is almost difficult to identify them individually. The story was excellent with a perfect plot, holding just the right amount of surprises. It held an air of realism, including fair treatment of faith, racism, and bigotry, resulting in a realistic characterization of love and hate. All was treated honestly and reflectively. The film was an honest characterization of a family during World War II, named for a little boy who worshiped his dad. His innocence, coupled with determination stole your heart. In fact, all of the characters were excellently portrayed. They were not only believable but completely likable.The film took place during the second World War, using flashbacks between the family home and the battlefield. It was easy to follow the progression, which often times is a problem for some films. I'd recommend this movie to anyone who has a heart.
Christy Leskovar What a great movie! It will make you laugh and cry and think. It takes place during World War II. Pepper/Little Boy is sad that his father has gone off to war, and he resents the only Japanese person in town, an older man named Hashimoto. Little Boy and his much older brother, London, try to vandalize Hashimoto's house. London is arrested. Little Boy's mother, played by Emily Watson, marches him to church to go to confession. Little Boy wants faith great enough to move mountains and bring his dad back from war. Father Oliver, played by Tom Wilkinson, gives him an ancient list and tells him, if he does all the things on the list, it will help grow his faith bigger. The list is the corporal works of mercy. Father Oliver adds one more: Little Boy must befriend Hashimoto. It is a heart warming and poignant story with many layers of meaning, beautifully filmed. It does look like Norman Rockwell on film. An amazing performance by Jakob Salvati, who plays Little Boy. How the director, Alejandro Monteverde, pulled such a performance out of a young child is truly remarkable. It is a movie for the entire family. Art illustrates beauty, truth, and goodness. "Little Boy" is art. I watched it on Netflix. It was filmed in Mexico.
