Deep, dark and hilariously funny

Rating: 10/10 (19 September 2006)

Saw this film at the Universal Cineplex in Florida this week. Decided to go as it looked like a bit of a giggle, you know, a little poke fun at the bizarre world of pageants. However, when this film started it proved so much more. As a dysfunctional family ( Mum Toni Colette, Dad Greg Kinnear)embark on a road trip to see their little girl, Olive, into the Little Miss Sunshine pageant,things do not go to plan and the darker your sense of humour, the more you will enjoy this film. Think of the worst day you've had, where nothing seems to go right for you and times it by 100. The cinema was by no means full but from the laughter coming from everyone you would have though there were double the amount of people in the audience. Hooray for Olive - absolute character of the film - whose talent is oh-so-definitely dancing.
