Sinopsis(1)
Envían a Joe "Deke" Deacon (Washington), el sheriff adjunto del condado de Kern, a Los Ángeles para lo que debería haber sido una tarea rápida de recopilación de pruebas. Pero Deke se ve envuelto en la búsqueda de un asesino en serie que aterroriza a la ciudad. El sargento del Departamento del Sheriff de Los Ángeles Jim Baxter (Malek) se encarga de dirigir la búsqueda del asesino. Impresionado con el instinto policial de Deke, consigue que colabore con él, aunque no por el canal oficial. Mientras persiguen al asesino, Baxter no es consciente de que la investigación está sacando a la luz ecos del pasado de Deke, descubriendo secretos inquietantes que podrían poner en peligro algo más que su caso.

Another retro thing that borders weirdness and remarkableness, restrained by a boring script and a weak climax. Yes, it lacks the nice grittiness and filth of the 90s and the characters are almost surprisingly forgettable, but Hancock surprises again when the detective storyline everyone expected turns out to be only a cover for a different and more intimate tale. One that is not very attractive, it’s missing a dense atmosphere and clues that will truly draw you into it, but… That lack of clues ends up being a pretty smart trick and after the reveal I was truly sorry that they didn’t take a more ingenious and formally creative path towards a stronger ending. It’s not a stupid film by any means, and I will gladly go back to it some day, but right now what prevails is the disappointment over the squandered potential of a premise that so boldly interweaves several layers of attention. Despite the clear similarities to Se7en, I’ve no clue what I could compare the ending with, and that’s something I certainly take as a plus. 65%

Una historia ordinara de detectives amigos, con una música no del todo apropiada de Thomas Newman y un personaje de comportamiento imbécil de uno de los detectives en el final. Denzel Washington y Rami Malek se llevan bastante bien, la película no aburre y te mantiene a la espera de la gradación del thriller y del giro argumental clave, pero al final no sorprende con nada. Vale la pena verla por la extraña y perturbadora creación psicológica de Jared Leto. Esta se merecía un guión mejor.

Una película especial con una atmósfera especial, definitivamente dirigida a un espectador no cansado. Y yo no lo estaba, tuve que verlo fragmentado, lo que pudo haberme afectado. Una película para tres actores ganadores del Oscar y sorprendentemente debo decir que esta fue la primera vez que Rami Malek no me molestó, al contrario, me gustó mucho y se complementó muy bien con otros dos grandes actores. Aunque no me guste este tipo de finales, puedo aceptarlo en esta historia y película, de alguna manera me parece natural.

As is customary here at FilmBooster, a film that goes against the grain, is idiosyncratic and goes against audience expectations is brutally underrated. Not that it surprises me, really. This is an atmospheric treat with Thomas Newman's uncharacteristic, congenial score that fits right in with the slow-paced story, whose screenplay is cleverer than it might initially seem thanks to the unraveling of the mystery of Joe Deacon's character and the ambivalent climax. And Jared Leto, who at other times is not one of my favourites with his mannerisms, is a class act here.

The Little Things is very well put together. When they reveal the cards at the end and we can see the concept as a whole, what the creators actually wanted to do, it looks like a very good idea. It’s a pity that the film never goes deeper and we don’t get to experience the search for the murderer of young girls together with the detective. If the viewer had been more emotionally invested, the resolution would have been like a slap in the face and The Little Things could have become a new thriller classic. The way it is, though, I can appreciate it rationally, but there wasn’t any real enjoyment.

A very underrated old-school thriller about the hunt for a serial killer, played by the excellently sleazy Jared Leto, who is pursued by Denzel Washington, playing his typical great role, and helped by a solid Rami Malek. The film unfolds at a slower pace, but surprisingly never bores, as there are three excellent actors on the scene who can hold your attention. I liked the dialogues, the atmosphere, the collection of evidence, the visuals, and the story itself with its unexpected final resolution. Those who expected another Se7en will be disappointed, but those who expect a decent, well-acted, and engaging crime film shouldn't complain. I enjoy films about serial killers, and although I would have welcomed the explicit depiction of deaths on camera, it didn't bother me that much this time. Story****, Action>No, Humor>No, Violence**, Entertainment****, Music*** , Visuals****, Atmosphere****, Tension****. 7/10.

An average detective story that changes direction quite dramatically after the appearance/disappearance of Jared. The weird system fraudster he plays, whose face beams constantly, even face to face with a cop who is stressed out and short of sleep, is the main plus of the movie. I appreciate the idea approaching things from a different side, but it could easily be shorter and more work should be done on the introduction and character motivation. This way they sometimes look like idiots who do things without any good reason.

Another of those dark, slow detective story in the style of Se7en, or Mystic River, that is atmospheric, ingeniously put together and hard to read in its means of expression, going against the audience's expectations. A tense crime drama with fantastic performances by Jared Leto and the odd duo of Denzel Washington and Rami Malek. It's not a particularly good role for former, but he didn't disgrace himself. It's not for a second viewing, but the creative level is solid.

Once again, I've been convinced that the local reviews sometimes make absolutely no sense. The Little Things is a worthy addition to the old school detective and crime genre. And it’s not just the 90s setting; the overall tone is one of slower pace, giving space to excellently written dialogues, with no unnecessary rush. The cast here is top-notch—Denzel Washington is classically great, and Rami Malek surprised me (I was a bit concerned about whether he could handle this dramatic detective role, but he tackled it like a pro). For me, though, the standout of the main trio was Jared Leto; his appearance injected fresh energy into the film. I enjoyed the individual exchanges between all the characters, and kudos also go to the person responsible for the music. The story picked up considerable momentum towards the end. Clearly, it’s not an action film, but if someone was expecting something in this more intimate style, they must have enjoyed it. I did. Even the intriguingly chosen ending had its merits. Objectively, it might be closer to a seven, but I’m happy to add that extra point. 8/10
