The bittersweet pangs of first love among sixth graders sets the stage for this romantic comedy. Gabe (Josh Hutcherson) is an 11-year-old boy living on the more exclusive side of New York City; his parents, Adam (Bradley Whitford) and Leslie (Cynthia Nixon), are splitting up, and as their marriage slowly crumbles, they've both become increasingly protective of their son. While most of Gabe's friends are still firmly in the "girls are yucky" stage, Gabe has found his head turned by Rosemary (Charlie Ray), a cute girl in his karate class. Negotiating the tricky waters of impressing the opposite sex for the first time, Gabe works up the nerve to ask Rosemary out on a date, and in time the two begin spending their spare time together. But just when Gabe feels ready to tackle the next step and tell Rosemary that he's in love with her, he learns that she'll be spending the summer away at camp, meaning he'll have to spend his vacation pining for her. Meanwhile, as Gabe turns to Adam for advice, Adam begins taking another look at where his relationship with Leslie went sour. Little Manhattan was the first directorial effort for writer and producer Mark Levin. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Too bad there aren't more movies like this one...a well-written and acted movie for pre-teens and their parents to watch together. Highly recommended.

A simple movie but realistic and well done. Charlie Ray is beautiful. Their first kiss makes you remember what it felt like when you had your own first real kiss. I love feeling that way! Don't we all wish we could be young again.

This movie surprised me, because I didn't think I was going to like it, but I did, I liked it very much. It reminded me of the old tv show The Woder Years, and the story of Kevin Arnold and Winnie Cooper.

Richard A.

Lovely little movie that can be enjoyed by the whole family, although my seven year old grandson did groan and roll his eyes at the kissing scene. No big drama, nothing earth shattering - -- just a glimpse at a nice family adjusting to changes in their life. Enjoyable.

Not really a adult film more for children in that age group kept waiting for something exciting to happen it never did.
