A cute oddity, mostly because of the talent in front and behind the camera, especially Foster and Parker

One of a kind, totally clever gangster parody with music and kids.

The songs and set pieces are still fresh and infectious and most of the child cast are mesmerisingly good. I defy anyone not to be caught up in the charm and nostalgia.

A minor masterpiece of it's time

There's little here that delivers even the bare minimum for a musical or a comedy

This original concept, a gangster musical spoof with all the roles played by children (Jodie Foster among them), never found its audience, but it's worth checking out.

Gets points for sheer peculiarness.

Jodie Foster stars in goofy kid mobster movie.

Pretty goofy idea, but kids will probably be diverted by it.

Parker's script is as sharp as a wiseguy's suit, his attention to period and genre detail a constant joy, and he coaxes scarily poised performances from his young performers.
