All Critics (212) | Top Critics (53) | Fresh (192) | Rotten (20) | DVD (17)
All indie-movie families may start out unhappy in their own way, but by the time the final credits roll, everyone remains complacent, confident of their brood's superiority.
Sunny or dark, comedy should never be as predictable as Little Miss Sunshine.
... a scrappy human comedy that takes an honest path to laughs and is twice as funny and touching for it.
... this isn't much more than a glorified sitcom, but it deftly dramatizes our conflicting desires for individuality and an audience to applaud it.
For a movie generated from the Amerindie algorithm of family dysfunction, road-trip catharsis and studied quirk, this dark-edged ensemble comedy often borders on the loveable.
Hilarious, profane and as much fun as you are going to have in a theater this summer.
Audience Reviews for Little Miss Sunshine
One of my favourite movies of all time!
Super Reviewer
A nice film about a dysfunctional family with a great script. Funny at times, but definitely original. Alan Arkin gives a great performance.
Super Reviewer
Wonderful, touching, original, and engaging in every way. I rarely watch a movie twice; I've seen this one three times, and enjoyed it each time.
