Summary: Little Miss Sunshine is an American family road comedy that shatters the mold. Brazenly satirical and yet deeply human, the film introduces audiences to one of the most endearingly fractured families in recent cinema history: the Hoovers, whose trip to a pre-pubescent beauty pageant results not only in comic mayhem but in death, transformation and a moving look at the surprising rewards of being losers in a winning-crazed culture. (Fox Searchlight Pictures)
Genres: Comedy, Drama
Country: USA
Written By: Michael Arndt

Overwhelmingly likable. I saw the movie sans hype in limited release and was floored by, well, just about everything. For a comedy, there are a surprising number of potent dramatic moments. It's also not the type of humour to beat you over the head with joke after joke. Rather, it's a slow build of zany atmosphere, culminating in a cathartic laugh-fest of a finale. I had a post-coital glow from laughing so hard after this, it's THAT satisfying. Every member of the cast is outstanding.

Quirky, funny, tragic and beautiful. A fabulous 'F*** You!' to the norm of society.

Not worthy of all the praise it got but an okay movie. Best actor? no. Best writing? no. Is it watchable? yes. But stop giving oscars to these movies with a lot of charm but not much substance.

I believe I'm suffering from a psychological ailment common amongst indie film audiences known as "quirk burnout." He is the second best Proust scholar. He likes Nietzsche and won't talk until he gets into the air force. He is an unsuccessful motivational speaker. He does heroin, but you see this is quirky because he is a sassy grandpa, ho ho. The performances are great and I think the film has a positive message, but I am so tired of quirk. So very tired.
