Good flick but maybe could have used a little more development
I recently watched this movie again - I had seen it about a year after it came out, when I was about 11 years old. I like the idea behind this movie - while I was (or am) not by any stretch as intelligent as Fred, the main character in this movie, I was more intelligent than many of my peers and...

good movie. receioved w/o problem. great film for younger audiences to teach tolerance or to teach first director flaws, though jodie foster is way too critical of her directing debut.

Little Man Tate
Little Man Tate is an excellent movie with first class acting and direction (Jodie Foster, Dir.). This is a movie the entire family can enjoy. It will expand your awareness of people around you, and stimulate discussion and appreciation of the gifts each person has, even if there are no geniuses...

A Good Story About A Gifted Child
Jodie Foster not only acts in this film, she directs as well. Harry Connick Jr. also stars in this movie, along with Adam Hann-Byrd who plays Fred Tate, the main character. Let us not forget who discovers Fred, Jane Grierson played by Dianne Wiest. His mother loves him, but Jane sees his...

Not that good.
Any director worth his or her " salt " would have taken advantage of all the missed opportunities in this movie. First, the characters are merely two dimensional and portray little to no genuine human emotion. The character developments in this film are really poor. Things just move too fast in...

I liked it up to a point
My wife and I felt the same about this film - it was good up to a point. The main weakness of the film is that the characters are 2-dimensional, and without giving away any plot details, we found itdefinitely too "feel good." At the end of the film, we agreed: "only 2 stars for this one." Rent it...

Extremely good, once
Jodie Foster directed this film, and stars as the working-class, average-intelligence mother of a seven-year-old boy, who happens to be a genius. Diane Wiest is the brilliant, but somewhat socially incompetent woman who runs a school for the gifted. Foster wants to make sure her son gets the...

Never get tired of watching this movie...
Well, I don't know all those technical things about whether a movie is good or not. I don't worry about how good the directing is, or even how good the script is. And sure, it can get a little (ok, a lot) annoying if the acting in a movie is bad, but all I really care about is whether I like the...

Good pic about finding your place in the world
I disagree somewhat with the reviews I have seen here. Although the main character is a genius, I think the main plot is about finding your place in life. While some children are lucky and slide right in, here the genius child is out of place with his surroundings. With a teacher and mom who...
