| WaffleMovies.comWillie WaffleLittle Manhattan is the cutest, funniest, most heartbreaking and inspiring movie you will see all year |
| TheFilmFile.comDustin PutmanA beautiful, layered, uplifting, dizzyingly romantic motion picture. This is one of the year's very best films, and one of its most unexpected cinematic treasures. |
| New York PostLou LumenickAs in Allen's films, the extensive shooting -- mostly at locations in and around Central Park -- takes place in a whitebread world where the only person of color is Rosemary's nanny. |
| New York TimesNed MartelThis small-scale, perfectly acted family film listens in on all the doubts and desires of an 11-year-old as he confronts new feelings about a girl he has known practically all his life. |
| CompuserveHarvey S. KartenDelightful look at two kids' first romance. |
| Common Sense MediaHeather BoernerRefreshingly realistic tween tale of first love. |
| New York Daily NewsJami BernardWhat a treasure - a funny, tart, romantic comedy about tweens suffering the pangs of first love. It makes the cityscape an essential part of the romance, like a junior, vintage Woody Allen. |
| CinenganosLuis MartinezTodas las personas mayores han comenzado por ser niños, pero pocas de ellas lo recuerdan. |

| Hollywood ReporterMichael RechtshaffenWhile the juvenile performances are bright and engaging, and there's no shortage of genuinely humorous observations about love and life in the Big Apple, there's an inescapable small-screen dynamic to the scope and rhythm of the production. |
