Little Man

The plot follows Calvin Sims, a dwarf criminal who, after leaving prison, teams up with his dim-witted brother Percy to steal a large diamond for a mobster named Walken. During a police chase, Calvin hides the diamond in the purse of Vanessa Edwards, an executive whose husband, Darryl, is eager to start a family. To recover the diamond, Percy convinces Calvin to disguise himself as a baby and be left at the Edwards’ home. The couple, unaware of the ruse, takes Calvin in and even considers adopting him, complicating Calvin’s mission.

Keenen Ivory Wayans directed the film, continuing the Wayans family's tradition of comedy films that often blend outrageous scenarios with slapstick and situational humor. Marlon and Shawn Wayans not only starred but also contributed to the film's comedic tone, leveraging their established chemistry from previous collaborations. The supporting cast includes Kerry Washington and Tracy Morgan, adding further comedic and dramatic elements.

Little Man was produced by Wayans Bros. Entertainment in association with Revolution Studios. It received mixed reviews, with some critics highlighting its slapstick humor while others found the premise polarizing. Despite this, the film has maintained a presence among fans of early 2000s comedy and Wayans family projects.

Collectors will find Little Man available on DVD, Blu-ray, and other physical formats. Its availability across multiple formats reflects the mid-2000s transition period in home media. The film’s mix of comedy and crime, combined with its unique premise and performances, offers an interesting addition to collections focused on comedy films or the Wayans family’s body of work.
