LITTLE MISS SOCIOPATH amused me. To be completely honest I had no plans of ever seeing the film, but a series of bad and pretentious art house films for some festivals took its toll and I had to reset my brain so I gave it a go.
The plot of the film has a put upon young woman getting more put upon when her dad dies leaving her to care for overbearing step mother. When the step mother dies she begins to tae care of other seniors with an eye toward larceny. Its a series of dar choices that leads to comedic results.
That the film works is due entirely to the cast not over selling it (well other than the one character who taking drama lessons). Everyone plays it straight with the result things hit. We buy the odd twists and turns as more than a comedic contrivance.
While I wish the voice over was a bit less low key, I still had a good time. Good enough that I will watch it again
