Just what we needed

Rating: 10/10 (20 August 2006)

Just today, I saw Little Miss Sunshine, and was greatly pleased by its outstanding quality. Little Miss Sunshine is a dark comedy about love and life. The entire cast was just outstanding. All the main characters were truly convincing. Little Miss Sunshine was directed very well, with many creative usages of the camera. The soundtrack was great, especially if you liked that of "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind". But, the greatest part of Little Miss Sunshine was definitely the screenplay. Little Miss Sunshine was able to pull off comedy, which is very hard to do. Most movies start with dumb jokes and then try to create an odd type of drama, but it doesn't work, because in other movies you don't care about the characters at all, because they haven't been developed well. This movie, though, makes film-making look easy, as it develops the plot and main characters flawlessly, and when it comes time to carry out the drama, it does not have any shortcomings. Little Miss Sunshine is the best movie of the twenty-first century, and I recommend it to all people, especially those who liked such movies as "Sideways", "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", and "Junebug".
