Undescribable Perfection

Plenty to Like, Plenty to Dislike

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

I'm not going to trash this movie. It's another example of how we all like to root for underdogs. Rick Moranis's team of misfits fills a bill that has been filled over and over and over. There are the organize guys, the team of villains. They have the nice uniforms and they have learned to play at a high level. Not only that, they seem to always have that quality that we love: they make fun of our poor guys. Of course, our guys have a couple of skinny kids with broken glasses and an overweight one who passes gas, enough to make another team pass out. Anyway, since this is just kind of harmlessly contrived sport, it works at its appropriate level. Remember, in the forties, people cheered as Harpo Marx broke every rule in football. It was all good fun anyway.

I've seen a lot of sports movies since I've lived on this planet, and this just happens to be one of my favorites.Like I've said in one of my other reviews, I don't really like football, but this is an instant classic. I can say this because I saw this when I was at least 8 or 9 years old and loved it! There are many memorable moments in the movie, and everyone from kids to adults can enjoy this.The only complaint I have is that they show it on ABC Family sometimes, and for some reason, they edit a lot of it out... and some of the edits actually make the movie work... if you can, stay away from that version.Aside from that, this is a 10 out of 10.

Watching this comic film about two brothers facing each other on the football field as coaches was very humorous, especially Ed Oneal's Kevin Oshea. His attitude nearly resembled a combination of Mika ditka and Tom Landry. No wonder why Rick Moranis' Danny told him off, "Who the hell do you think you are? Vince Lombardi? These are kids." That was probably the line that lay-ed out the plot of the picture. The Ice Box was nearly cute as she had her crush on her own QB. It was very nice to see Hall of Famer John Madden do a cameo appearance as he got lost on his way to Canton, Ohio.If the action on the field would of been filmed as detailed as in Bend in on Beckham(2004) Little Giants would have been really for everybody's enjoyment especially since this film is most possibly aimed at younger audiences. But I still give it a seven out of ten for its good effort to represent rivalry on a pee wee field. Spike stole the scene as a Dick Butkus like kid.

a great script and wonderful casting makes this movies one of my favorites. the one thing i love about this movie is the relationship between the becky character and the junior character. they are good friends and it just a great aspect of the movie.another thing that makes this movie great is the casting. rick moranis,ed o'neil has brothers. and then devon swawa has the cute quarterback...now there is great casting...they couldn't have done a better job with that character. this movie is just a great film and i love it.... a movie that i could watch over and over again...in fact i do watch this movie over and over again...
