Movie fans have been left disappointed and frustrated by the ‘terrible’ psychological thriller ‘The Little Things’ on Netlfix.
The film was released in 2021 but only arrived on Netflix UK at the beginning of September – fans are still reeling after ‘wasting time’ watching it.
People have used X (formerly Twitter) to encourage others not to make the same mistake.
Despite the all-star ensemble of Denzel Washington, Rami Malek, and Jared Leto, the serial killer movie caused viewers to tune out before reaching the end.
John Lee Hancock’s crime drama follows veteran police officer Joe “Deke” Deacon (Denzel Washington) and newer detective Jim Baxter (Rami Malek) as they try to find a serial killer terrifying Los Angeles – Albert Sparma (Jared Leto) becomes their main suspect.

One viewer tweeted: “If you’re thinking about watching ‘The Little Things’ on Netflix, don’t waste two hours of your life.”
Another person who watched the film when it came out two years ago warned people who might be interested in giving the film a try now not to worry about it.
They wrote: ‘The Little Things is now on Netlfix and whatever you do, don’t watch it. I wanted my time back after watching it.
It’s been two years and I’m still amazed at how bad/pointless it was.’
Another viewer didn’t even get to the end of the movie before making a decision.
They said, ‘Don’t worry about the little things on Netflix. It’s absolutely horrible, extremely frustrating, so disappointed and I’m not even at the end yet but I just know it’s going to be bad.”
Someone else said: ‘This tweet will save you time and sanity. Don’t watch The Small Things on Netflix.’
Others were even “offended” that “a legend like Denzel was even cast in such an atrocity,” wondering “how could anyone make a movie about a serial killer that is so damn boring!!!”

Another talking point of the film is its ending, which left viewers baffled and disappointed.
One person said: ‘Just watched The Little Things. I invested two hours of my life in a movie with a terrible ending,” while another wrote, “Unfortunately it’s a very cheesy, quiet movie. I thought it was boring and the ending is weird.”
Someone else called it a “slow-moving movie with no resolution,” ultimately leaving movie fans frustrated.
