Floated2 The Little Hours is quite a small independent comedy. This film won't appeal to the mass audiences but could have a select cult following in the upcoming years. Having little to no expectations but some laughs, the Little Hours delivers on an interesting and different premise and makes for an enjoyable film. With a current IMDB rating of 5.8, there appears to be a lot of people which seem to not like or understand the humor in this film. Though the critics seem to understand, having a current 78% on Rotten Tomatoes.Featuring crude and silly gags, the Little Hours works due to the cast and chemistry and offbeat plot. As a whole the film is quite funny, even though it is quite silly and a clear parody meaning it shouldn't be taken as serious. Hollywood could use more types of comedies such as this, than the generic films we are accustomed to. Overall, the Little Hours works and is highly recommended, though not for everyone.
vladimirlisovets Lack of taste, no humor, just a bunch of silly controversial attacks that make the essence of this "cheap" movie. It is sad to realize how this portraits our society driven by ideologies, lack of taste, cheap attacks on traditional values masked as comedy or irony.There is a relatively similar in context Portuguese movie, that I liked quite much, it was constructive criticism which I agreed with and it was interesting to watch from the beginning to the end. "The little hours" is a mere product of untalented minds that only worried to make controversy, with no fundament, no story line, no humor. Complete trash.
toberoni ...because the cast looked promising. I really wanted to like it but it just wasn't very funny. A tight script might have helped here. If you think a movie about nuns that swear a lot is hilarious, this might be your movie.
Reno Rangan I won't reject occasional film like this. This is not a masterpiece that I was looking for, but surely something different than usual entertainment. Very nicely made film, so I appreciate whoever involved in its creation. And then there's the beautiful cast. It was so perfect casting, each and everyone did their parts awesomely. So tell me who would bash such rare gem. Then the answer is like usual the film critics.Aubrey Plaza is not a mainstream actress, but her films still make a stir. I enjoyed all her recent films and here's the another unique one. The third time she teamed up with the director, another decent comedy it was. Loosely based on the book, but it only spoofed. It tells the story of a convent of nuns somewhere in a lonely place. A new gardener joins them and the following events revealed as the thing that gets ugly and nasty. Many dark secrets unfold before it all ends.I suggest it to you if you are bored with regular comedies. It was not powerful or a tale with full of twists and turns, but watching it once surely works well. It was a film filled with adult comedies. So not suitable for all ages. Especially those who strongly believe in religion would only get annoyed. Just watch it with an open mind, so the entertainment is guaranteed. Not overall a perfect film, yet still slightly an underrated film of the year.6.5/10
