Ice Cream Makes You fat

This is my favorite comedy ever. I love the way the filmmakers show how the family changes over the course of the trip. A very well done film with lovely characters. Be sure you let Little Miss Sunshine brighten up your day. I know it will. This is truly a great film.

Everyone Just Pretend to be Normal

Honestly one of the best films ever made, "Little Miss Sunshine" is a dark comedy unlike any dark comedy. It trusts the audience to believe that families are indeed as dysfunctional as they seem to be. Taking a positive, optimistic view towards suicide, cocaine abuse, beauty pageants, prejudice, and dysfunctional families in general, this movie changed my life. Highly HIGHLY recommended.

Perfect

Brilliant. A movie that is really the whole package. A drama that is truly and consistently funny. I love laughing with the tears squeezing out of my eyes and that's what you get with Little Miss Sunshine. Steve Carell is brilliant as the suicidal uncle.
