Little Man
Pummeled by the critics, Wayan Brothers comedy the 'Little Man' follows Calvin – revolting to the eye and both a hardened criminal & a dwarf (his is look achieved by attaching Marlon Wayans noggin to a the body of a 9 year old thespian). After being released from prison, Calvin teams up with hapless crim Percy (Morgan) to steal a diamond. In the course of their clumsy getaway, the diamond accidentally ends up with a married couple Darryl & Vanessa (Shawn Wayans & Kerry Washington).
The moronic thieves concoct a plan: in an attempt to infiltrate the couple’s lives & retrieve the jewel, Calvin dresses up as a baby and has Percy leave him on their doorstep. Darryl & Vanessa, though shocked to find him, decide to care for the "infant". Calvin works behind the scenes to retrieve the diamond, whilst trying to control his sexual urges & violent temper.

pressThere are probably some moviegoers who can laugh at the sight of a groin-punching, breast-grabbing baby, possibly even find it cute. Everyone else should steer clear of Little Man...
USA Today
pressAlmost in spite of itself, Little Man manages to deliver big laughs. It's not enough to make it a consistently funny movie, but this one-trick pony from the Wayans brothers has flashes of humor and sincerity that almost save it from its disastrous ending...
