One Of The Year's Best!

Rating: 8/10 (29 August 2006)

I have looked forward to this one for months, and finally got around to seeing it last night. I found it to be absolutely hilarious, and at the same time absolutely depressing. There were very powerful messages about beauty and love. I think it is a movie that kids and adults should see. It was an excellent reminder to be proud of what we have, even if it isn't exactly what other people have. (i.e. our bodies, our families) It was one of the most accurate portrayals of a family I have seen in ages. The performances were amazing, especially that of Abigail Breslin. I would recommend this movie to anyone who wants a good laugh, or can just relate the typical dysfunctional family. Well worth the money, you WILL laugh out loud!
