| Discussion: Little Miss Sunshine what is up with flork...i think we're all a bit behind on things cause this movie had me laughing...ironically so. >>By Superstarzz!! i loved this movie. . . it reminded me of my days as little miss sunflower. . .those days were terrifying. . . it also reminded me of the last time i moved to las vegas. . .those days were horrifying. . . but i wouldn't trade them for anything! >>By drowninginflame dieser film hat mir gefallen, aus dem Tod eines Menschen konnte mann, was sinnvolles machen. also aus unseren beschissenen sachen konnen wir auch was nettes tun. >>By aboalteem it was pretty friggin funny. >>By raspberry_juice i REALLY liked this movie. especially Alan Arkin as the foul mouthed, poon chasin', heroin snortin' grandad. & Toni Collette always seems to shine in the roles she chooses. >>By Helmet I realize many of you liked this movie, however I just could not get into it. Summarized the movie was about a child participating in a beauty contest, and mishaps as the disfunctional family trys to get the child to the pageant. When she finally gets there she does a striptease act. "Yawn" Seemed highly inappropriate. Also, the movie is very dry. I actually thought the dryness was part of the turn off. However, lately I saw another dry movie I really liked. So, that wasn't it. I found this movie to have no positive qualities. I only managed to laugh a couple of times. Dissapointed >>By Sticksmateo This movie was great. Dry humor with a very touching story of how a family of "losers" sticks together and ends up embracing the fact that they don't fit in. Great music by Devotchka, too. >>By The Walrus no *positive qualities* ??? well i don't know about that i thought the manner in which this WAY dysfunctional family 'closed ranks' & supported each other was VERY positive & i laughed throughout ............ especially during the *finale* !!! yes yes YES !!!!!! when our "Little Miss Sunshine" wannabe does her lurid striptease (".....she's a very freakyyyyyyyyy girl ......." ;) well wasn't that a grand *poke in the eye* to the whole depressing spectre of child beauty contests. >>By Helmet Thanks again, Helmet, for your spot on comments (you helped me out on the "Shaun of the Dead" page). I didn't see that dance number coming at all. Though, once you see it, it makes perfect sense. That Grandpa...crazy guy. >>By The Walrus Hey... I had high hope for this movie, but it started out slow and got progressively worse, until it finally got to the ridiculous ending. I at least laughed at the gas station scene. I guess I was just hoping for something better. >>By Celestia haha yeah the song she performs to at the end DID come as a surprise to me after the sound engineer raises an eyebrow while scanning the CD that contains her *choice of music* & asks her who picked THAT song & she replies, "Grandpa" ... well, i was kinda expecting some sort of lame-ass *Grandpa Musik* >>By Helmet i loves this movie >>By Gentle4ever70 Exactly! I thought, hmm, it's probably going to be some old timer 1940s ditty. Wrong! I think the reason some people were disappointed was because they were expecting big, goofy laughs and instead they got a quirky drama with laughs interspersed throughout. It's a dramedy, folks. Like life...exaggerated. >>By The Walrus You are not logged in. To access all functionality, you can log in via Flork.
