If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

I admit, I picked this up because I wanted a little Bon Jovi eye-candy, and didn't *really* expect the movie to be any good, but then I saw it had Josh Charles and Annabella Sciorra in it, and I think then I expected a little too much of it. Like a plot that *made sense.*It wasn't so much the overall theme of the movie that I disagreed with as it was the fact that the characters themselves were pretty shoddy. By this I don't mean that they were caricatures (though many were, particularly Bon Jovi's Kevin), but rather that the characters did not even make decisions consistent with how they supposedly acted and thought. The ending, particularly for Kevin and Nina, left me feeling as though miles of film that explained *how* and *why* these things were happening had been left on the cutting room floor.The acting was all right, and some of the dialogue was downright witty, but none of it was good enough to rescue a character-driven movie with flat characters and poor characterization.

Ok...I admit it. I'm totally in love with Jon Bon Jovi and I seen this movie that had him in it...so I had to see it. I didn't know if I would like it or not...I knew it was about love, but that's it. Well...I watched it and surprised...I actually liked it. It was a cute little film. It was kinda confusing at times, but I enjoyed it. And yes...Jon Bon Jovi HAS improved on his acting ability. I'd recommend the movie to people. :)

"Little City" refers to San Francisco of which much mention is made and many landmarks are shown in this film which features an ensemble cast of quality actors all comfortably engaged in sorting through the romantic vicissitudes of their characters lives. Lively, fun, and glib, "LC" is a little situational plotless and soapless "chick flick" with lots down-to-earth dialogue about relationships. A fun, light hearted watch for mature channel surfers, especially couples and San Franciscans.

What a great little film which didn't get enough attention. Yes, Bon Jovi is good, but all of the other performances are the ones to praise. Penelope Ann Miller and Josh Charles shine. Benabib wrote a very entertaining funny screenplay and should be very proud of his directorial debut. Hopefully, this film will gain some notoriety over the years.
