The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

You really have to wonder about Americans. Are they so stupid that this is considered entertainment? Whoever gave money for this to be made should have all their money taken away and be told never to try to do this again.A few glaring errors among the many: No doctor worth his degree would mistake a 40-year-old dwarf for a baby. The head size is all wrong, plus he had all his adult teeth.Pubic hair should have been a strong clue to the other idiots that they weren't looking at a baby. We never see his facial hair grow back or him surreptitiously shaving. That should have been another clue.There is no way he could have driven that car. He wouldn't have reached the pedals.And the idiot husband didn't clue in that his "baby" just had sex with his wife! Even worse, the idiot wife didn't know who she was screwing.I know movies often require suspension of belief, but this is way beyond ridiculous.

Little Man really is something off a last resort, I hate that I'm slagging off this film because I really am a fan off the Wayans brothers & co. (Shawn & Marlon Wayans act & Keenen Ivory Wayans directs) however this really is not one of there finest pieces at all! The film is boring in many scenes and just isn't funny and is very unbelievable I mean the doctor doesn't even notice this is a 40 year old man pretending to be a child off less then 2 years I mean the 'kid' has a full set off teeth, a tattoo & a stab scar! Apart from the fact it's so unbelievable it's laughable the film is almost disturbing I mean the 'kid' Calvin is practically morally wrong and almost a pervert I must have laughed about twice but most of the sex jokes really were vulgar and unnecessary. The whole film is just weird that Calvin thought it was OK to actually pretend to be someone's child. Mostly I didn't like this film apart from the occasional laugh. Really is a last resort to watch.

Vertically-challenged ex-convict Marlon Wayans disguises himself as an orphaned baby to a yuppie couple (Shawn Wayans and Kerry Washington) so he can reclaim a valuable diamond he placed in a purse while trying to elude the authorities. Also along for the ride is Marlon Wayans' dim-witted accomplice Tracy Morgan and comic book-styled crime boss Chazz Palminteri (no idea what he's doing in this film). Basically a rehash of old Warner Bros. Merrie Melodies cartoon concepts as the novelty wears thin pretty quick. The film starts fairly but the material cannot hold up for a feature-length production like this. The typical insanity and crazed situations would be better suited to a variety show or an animated sitcom. Ho-hum comedic misfire that could only be from the Wayans'. 2 stars out of 5.

Why is it that everyone downs comedies so much. This movie was ***king funny as f*ck! Are you kidding me? 3.7 rating only? Im glad all you losers didn't enjoy this, because while you were wasting 90 minutes of your life, me my wife and some buddies were laughing our asses off. The movie was way predictable, and unrealistic, but isn't everything you watch on TV like that? Take it for what it is, a movie. Bad acting? I honestly don't think it was that bad on that part. The wayans brothers did a pretty good job. I think the people who didn't like this movie were people who got offended from it. All i have to say for people who voted a 1 star to this movie is, go watch brokeback mountain or something. I highly recommend this movie if your having your friends over for a good laugh. (And cry)
