Little Nikita Ratings & Reviews
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...periodically watchable yet mostly underwhelming...
United Press International
Cathy Burke
Sidney Poitier, 10 years absent from the screen, is now back with a vengeance.
Variety
Variety Staff
Never really materializes as a taut espionage thriller and winds up as an unsatisfying execution of a clever premise ...
DVDJournal.com
Betsy Bozdech
A dated-but-still-tense thriller that puts an original spin on the spy genre.
New York Times
Walter Goodman
Richard Benjamin's strategy in directing ''Little Nikita'' seems to have been to paper over the holes in the plot with routine moves from spy shows past, in hopes of making the improbable passable.
Moviehole
Caffeinated Clint
Not a shade on "Running on Empty", but a nicely performed encore
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
It turns all of the characters into chess pieces, whose relationships depend on the plot, not on human chemistry. Since the plot is absurdly illogical, you're not left with much.
Washington Post
Hal Hinson
"Little Nikita" would be nothing without River Phoenix's hair. It's the most engaging, the most watchable thing in the film.
