Comedy with Character

Rating: 10/10 (11 September 2006)

Do you know what I miss most when watching most movies? Character. Do you know what I LOVED most about Little Miss Sunshine? Character. While this movie wasn't as absolutely hilarious as I had heard--it was still amazing. Every actor in this movie was on target. Fantastic performances by Alan Arkin, Abigail Breslin, and Paul Dano.
Paul Dano was amazing. He carries one of the most powerful scenes I've ever seen in a movie. His deadpan, silence throughout the movie causes some of the funniest moments in the movie.
This is a different role for Steve Carell, and yet he is still amazing. He continues to show how great of an actor he truly is.
Everyone else was just as fantastic. I cannot say enough how great this movie was. Best movie of 2006 so far--and I doubt it will be beaten. If you want to "feel" when you watch a movie--go see Little Miss Sunshine.
You'll love it.
