Little Miss Sunshine


Review by Loc


Indie flicks are a funny beast. They almost always deal with quirky life stories that have little commercial appeal, commercial referring to blockbuster explosions, glass-breaking stunts, sappy love stories, etc. And they usually present things in a more “realistic” fashion, where characters resemble normal people complete with legitimate faults and deficiencies. Thus, sometimes it’s refreshing to watch a story set in a pseudo-realistic world and see how normal people might approach a normal problem. Or, it can really boring and pretentious. If I wanted to see how things would end up, couldn’t I just imagine what I would do in the situation? After all, I won’t be flying through exploding buildings any time soon, but I might be dealing with the dysfunctional family dinner tonight, right? So, where does that leave Little Miss Sunshine? Quick hit: enjoyable and funny road trip with your dysfunctional family.
