Little Children

Rating: 8.1/10
Genre: Romance
Overall value for money and time: 8.2/10

This movie is about a married woman who has an affair with a househusband. Sounds pretty typical so far right? Well, that is just the main movie plot. It also covers issues on marriage and what keeps a marriage going, aspirations and the outcome of supressing one's dreams, the courage to break out from one's boring life and trying out something adventurous, the biased stereotyping and condemnmation of the condemned and many other issues. It's quite similar to the movie "American Beauty", where there's a lot of ways to interpret the movie and to appreciate it. The title fits the movie like a charm and the movie left me lost for words when the credits started to roll. I was silent not for the ridiculous plot or outrageous ending some movies offered, instead, my mind was literally blown away. I don't know how else to describe this movie but through one word. Beautiful.
