3/10 🌠🌠🌠 This film was an absolute waste of time. Did I like the characters and the acting? Yes. Did the videography and color schemes utilizing the props, sets and wardrobe look beautifully amazing? You better believe it. But just like the film "Gwen" (2018) which claims to be a folk tale derived from Wales, Although the look and vibe of the film was similar to "The Witch" or more recently "Gretel & Hansel" the film itself was horrendous leaving you with more questions than answers and wasting a storyline that has so much potential. But "Little Joe" does the opposite by giving you a very intriguing storyline just to mope around from scene to scene and literally go nowhere with a minuscule climactic ending. Someone mentioned violence what violence an off screen punch with the perception of hitting someone or the falling over a ledge that you don't see happen or even the body laid out as the aftermath. To be considered a slow burn you have to actually catch fire at some point and this film didn't even create a spark. The style and quirky feel of the movie was great but this isn't a music video if you make someone sit through 1hour 45mins of mostly boredom you can't possibly lead them towards a path that goes nowhere and expect viewers not to become furious at the conclusion. I give this a hard pass. Waste your time if that's what your into but i can't get my two hours back and damn I hate when that happens.
