Pretty much all of the songs have been seared into my brain by this point.

While I definitely will consider showing this to my kids some day (that is, if I'm gonna have any), I can't really mark it as a particularly "great" film. I have a lot of respect for the project, and I suppose Parker accomplishes his intentions. Some of the songs were terrible, which a kid won't mind, but I do. Because I am adult.

Cute, weird, and unforgettable, "cult" written all over it thanks to its irreplicable gimmick. The songs aren't excellent in and of themselves ("Tomorrow" possibly excepted) but they serve the function they're supposed to, and are as indispensably important to the film's likability as the child actors are. Gets a little rote once the meta gags (splurge guns, pedal cars, weird vocal dubs, etc.) stop being funny.

Hard to evaluate this audacious, distinctive one-off. Think of it, perhaps, is as a high-caliber high school version of a grown-up musical. The songs are terrific, although not uniformly so, and the acting is good considering the limited experience of the cast. The largest disappointment is that every single one of the songs is dubbed. The choice of neutering the violence (cream puffs for bullets) while retaining direct, if often subtle, female sexuality may be off-putting to modern audiences.

Fun for what it is, with some good songs. Undoubtedly very wierd though.

An endearing musical-crime-comedy, in which all parts are performed by children. Jodie Foster as a chid is a marvel and the concept is cute, but as in every great musical, what really elevates it are the songs, which to me are unforgettable.

This an excellent childrens film.

Nausiating overly sweet ... ideal except for all the kids !

This is WEIRD.

Weird and fascinating, I regret not having a chance to see it as a kid - thanks to the scaled-down sets and pedal cars it feels a best children game ever and gives an impression of a giant doll house. However, the story is strong enough to support a normal grown-up film, and the children's acting adequate enough to forget at times it's just a make-believe. Were grown-ups cast, it would become a solid gangster film - as is, it's a one of a kind curiosity free to various interpretations.
