Little Miss Sunshine

We decided to use our free movie tickets on Little Miss Sunshine after seeing the rare 90+ rating on RottenTomatoes. The movie gotta be at least decent to go watch right?

Little Miss Sunshine is about a family and all those ups and downs that binds us together. We can call them dysfunctional, troubled, or down on their luck, or maybe just a dramatized version of the average family unit on earth. We got the rebellious teenager, the old crazy grandpa, the innocent little one, the embarrassing family relative, the dad who has to spew out wisdom in every single sentence, and the mom whose just trying to keep sane.

The ball (or car, you'll see) starts rolling when the little girl finds out that she's a finalist in a beauty pageant. The entire family piles into the old van and off they go towards the competition in California. What can happen when you pile 6 very different individuals across different generations into a confined space?

A lot.

It's a good movie with some scenes that'll cause you to laugh and snort. Another dramady. Well.. I would say slightly more comedy than drama so make that comdrama.
