Here Come the Littles

About This Movie

Here Come the Littles from 1985 is quite the interesting blend of animation and family themes, with a unique take on the classic 'little beings living in the walls' trope. It’s set against a backdrop of childhood adventure, with Henry's struggle under the oppressive thumb of his Uncle Augustus. The pacing has that leisurely, exploratory vibe characteristic of mid-80s animations, allowing the audience to warm up to the quirky Littles who are both endearing and resourceful. The practical effects have a charming roughness that adds to the film's character, and the voice performances, while not widely recognized, bring those little characters to life in a lovely way. It’s a film that really captures a sense of wonder, tinged with the darker realities of greed and family.
