Little Manhattan's Gots a Calling

by Aly

Little Manhattan is a cute little story about a 11year old boy who has his first love Rosemary Telescoe. But when theirs a little bump in the road will they make it through?

11 year old Gabe is a normal 11year old boy in the world of “eww! Girls have cooties” that is until he started taking karate class and had the 3rd prettiest girl as his sparing partner. But after awhile he notices he like likes her. But when they’re love is tested something’s are said that they never meant. And when Gabe’s parents love story is coming true, his love story is falling apart. But what is a kid to do in a world with a broken heart, besides cry. His life is not the way he wanted but he pulls through.

Well the first thing I liked is that it’s not some phony love story from Hollywood that makes girls wanna cry themselves. No it shows that even in the youngest of loves, it goes through it’s hardships. The second is that it show New York isn’t all bad. Because it shows that Manhattan isn’t some run down trash whole like Hollywood want us to believe. They think that if we new what it really is like then we wouldn’t like Hollywood, or LA, or Malibu anymore so they try to shield us from the real world.

But there are some other things I didn’t really like, like all they advertisement. Ok we get it New York has a lot of cool stuff. Another is that it didn’t show any flaws of Manhattan. To me that’s just unrealistic that’s what makes a town little flaws give life an edge but in “Little Manhattan” they didn’t show anything but the love of Gabe and Rosemary, and the love of Adam and Leslie.

So in conclusion this movie is both realistic and unrealistic. And in a scale from 1-10 I would defiantly give it an 8.9. And I would recommend this to my friends and family.
