Phelim O'Neill Guardian Aug 24, 2012
4/5
It presents a gently humorous, beautifully shot idyllic version of childhood, all blue skies, good manners and not a hair out of place. It's a nice place to visit for the duration. Go to Full Review

He's charming and adorable to parents, yes - but you've got to wonder if kids will find this mummy's boy a bit wimpy. Go to Full Review
Philip French Observer (UK) Aug 26, 2012
A likable, sentimental, occasionally saccharine celebration of middle-class France and its likable children in the late 1950s and early 60s ... Go to Full Review
Allan Hunter Daily Express (UK) Aug 23, 2012
2/5
A breezy, undemanding adaptation of the bestselling novels that broke box-office records in France in 2009. Go to Full Review

Draco W Jan 10, 2019 10/10. I love this film. this was the first film to make me weep. good job. it also had me a little spooked, but the comedy of this beauty brought my spirits right back up. I will ALWAYS love Little Nicholas See more
Luke S Oct 15, 2017 Reviewed 7.28.17. It thinks it's more clever than it is, in its shameless attempt to mimic the vibe and quirkiness of Amelie, the French hit from 2001. Can't blame them for trying, mimicking that formula has become a cottage industry of sorts. But unfortunately in this case they miss the opportunity to develop their own potentially charming story. It does entertain in bits and pieces. But mostly leaves you thinking of the innovators that did it better. See more
