Little Monsters

For ANY story, true, based on true events, or fictitious, the performances MUST be believable. In the trailer alone, I could tell that the implausibility of the performances let me know that watching this movie would be an exercise in SUFFERING. .There is no reason that the fake news clips could not APPEAR real. Terribly done. Much like if a character is supposed to be Irish, the audience must BELIEVE they are Irish, and not be distracted by a poorly done Irish accent. There comes a point where the producers, directors, and writers must admit that the project fails to pull of its intended purpose, which is, again, to be BELIEVABLE..even if the story is fiction.

I agree with everything Andrew Mann said, I cannot believe this tragedy has been made into a movie. People in the UK will be sickened by this, James Bulger a trusting toddler went with these evil sick boys who took him and slowly killed him, while they were stoning him he was apparently screaming for his mummy. I just pray his family NEVER see this. Clearly someone in America decided it would be a good idea to make this movie and profit from the torture and death of a small innocent boy. The movie should be banned. David Schmoeller should be ashamed of himself, perhaps he needs to seek guidance from god and pray for forgiveness. I truly hope this movie is one of the biggest flops of all time and hope that nobody is sick enough to want to see it. Those who do decide they want to see it better take a lot of tissue because the story of what happened to this wee boy will rip your heart out.

I mindlessly turned this on and pretty quickly realized that it's an exploitation of real events. Seriously, the filmmakers couldn't develop their own unique story? They CHOSE to flagrantly cash in on the misery of others. The film is not even a well made; it's slow, tedious and doesn't hold your attention despite the fact, that they tried to whip up emotion by showing the death of James Bulger (his real name). If you're going to cash in on others pain at the very least do it well. Skip it; there's plenty of other trashy movies to waste your time watching without supporting this real trash. I'm genuinely sorry that I watched this and I'm going to take a shower now.

Most who watch this film know of the horrible truth surrounding this crime.

First off, don't give cigarettes to people that don't smoke and can't act. The story has potential....brutal, and truthful potential....but this movie didn't even pass the start line in an attempt.

Again it seems the actors were given roles without pay in return for screen time, they seem right out of LA acting class.

Butterfly-8335 must have Stockholm syndrome,because I bet If they were murdered or if their child was raped, they would you say "I deserved it" or "it's God's will". no way movies should give real life merciless murderers movies. It won't condone their actions. That's saying " you're a horrible person, but you'll have your own movie about you". It's okay for fictional people to do evil things,because they are not real. using the actual murderer and victim is a slap in the face to real people who suffered. A couple lost their child, yet they make a movie with the merciless killers as the stars. They even had the actual murder take place in the movie, that's a big middle finger to the victim. There are different ways they could bring awareness to this case,donating to the family, talk to teens and kids, talk to the public.making a movie that is going in theaters, about the killers it not the right way. As for the movie flow, it was boring. Plus who's the star? How am I suppose to follow someone who live their daily life, but brutally murdered a child for no reason? I was like "Fuck it, just kill them and end it already". the scene were the boy blamed his mother for his behavior is the trope of terrible parents leading to serial killer children. It's getting old. it's the number one excuse teenagers use to get softer punishment in real life. Like before, don't glorify it.
