I thought this was a terrific movie. It really makes you wonder about how we treat sex offenders. |

This does have a decent story, it is told in an interesting way, and the acting is good. The execution is even ok. It's problem lies in the subject matter - it is used now days for all the independent films. The films tend to end the same. |

I Wanted To Be Good |

What a terrifying premise for a movie: think about it...
1.] You have a misunderstood pedophile roaming your streets with a bunch of crazy right-wingers hoping to catch a bullseye on him.
2.] You have an affair going on based on the friendship of their children
and 3.] It's called "Little Children."
Kate Winslet is brilliant as always, as is Patrck Wilson. However, Jackie Earle Haley really draws attention at his breathtakingly ominous portrayal of a pedophile who doesn't mean to hurt anyone, but does simply because he possesses what every man has... |

Good Suburban Life Drama |
|
This is definitely one for the more mature audience. I thought this was a good movie. It had that Desperate Housewives kind of feel where everything looks good on the outside, but on the inside everything was in shambles. It was a good story and told in an interesting way. The voice over was a little weird. I don't know how I feel about that, but it was still an interesting story. I thought the problem with this movie was the development.

I also don't know how I feel about the ending. I mean, I suppose you can figure what happens, but I'm sick of that abrupt ending in a lot of these movies. If a movie i... |

A truly adult drama |
|
Strict, adult drama astutely scrutinizes human sexuality with deeply complex performances; unfortunately, certain pertinent characters needed more depth to be truly affecting, particularly the spouses. Kate Winslet, Phyllis Sommerville and Jackie Earle Haley excel. Final Grade: B+ |
