"Little Miss Sunshine" is a Winner

"Little Miss Sunshine" is a hilarious classic. It has a dysfunctional family including, Greg Kinnear, Toni Collette, Alan Arkin, Steve Carell, Paul Dano, and Abigail Breslin. The family is very loving but they still get on everyone's nerves, especially when they set out on a journey. The journey, is a drive from New Mexico to California for a beauty pageant their daughter is going to compete in. They soon realize that all of their problems are not the worst things in the world, they will get through it.

This film is so great mainly because of how funny it is. Michael Arndt wrote this hilarious film and the laughs were all throughout the film. This was one of few movies that I have seen in theaters where the whole theater was laughing. Greg Kinnear was so fantastic because of his tough love. He was sort of strict in this movie and it worked for him. Toni Collette is a great actress that should be in more films. She really became a modern mother in this film because of her mannerisms. Steve Carrell can play any role regardless if it is a dramatic role or comedic. He just absorbs his character in a way that not most actors can do. Paul Dano and Abigail Breslin are young actors that most likely have a great career ahead of them. They have the talent at such a young age to have an amazing career in this business. Alan Arkin completely deserved the Oscar win for this film because he was hilarious and was also perfect for the cooky grandfather. This film is so great everyone should see it.

Grade = 91/100 = A-
