CRITIC REVIEWS
Lew Irwin
Little Miss Sunshine, a hit at the Sundance Film Festival this year, is also a hit with film critics as it opens in limited release this weekend. Many praise the performances of Toni Collette, Greg Kinnear, Alan Arkin, Steve Carrell, Paul Dano, and Abigail Breslin, playing family members heading for Little Miss Sunshine, a kind of beauty pageant for kids. "This might be the best ensemble cast of the year," Glenn Whipp remarks in the Los Angeles Daily News. "The casting is flawless," adds Jack Mathews in the New York Daily News. "It has been a while since we've seen such a consistently funny and entertaining road movie," comments Claudia Puig in USA Today. The film, writes Manohla Dargis in the New York Times, "motors forward on the strength of its seamless ensemble and direction, and its touching human comedy." Joe Morgenstern in the Wall Street Journal calls it a "wonderful debut feature" that offers "lovely surprises by the busload."

yes, i'm serious...arkin won best supporting actor for a reason...neither the movie nor the language used in it have been visited upon fragile minds, with the possible exception of your own.

Are you serious, we're worried about the foul language, learn to discipline your children. It's rated R for a reason. Have you never said a bad word in your life, come on. This was great. It's nice to have something different, instead of the same old perdictable movie.

This Movie is Amazing! So so so good. It starts slow developing momentum until at the end you'll be swinging your arms in excitement. An american poem

This is one of the best movies I have seen in a while, and one of the funniest. Sure it has some language, but it is rated R. The characters are fantastic and loveable.

This movie would NOT be as good without the foul language.But then I guess I don't have kids.It is rated R for a reason.Half the point of the movie is the far-out story with the undercurrent of realism, and real people swear.Notice how the girl is told everything, but doesn't necessarily equate anything as being wrong?She is a character that remains innocent and blissful to the corruptness around her when all the other characters in the movie bend under the pressure and start swearing, and that dynamic would not be achieved if the producers decided to clean up the language.I think the movie was about making the most common of lives interesting, kind of like an existential take on everyday occurrence to tell a very obvious moral story (but notice the daughter is not yet exposed to the existential feelings of nothingness as she still believes in heaven).So the moral I get from this movie is that in the end it all comes down to family members supporting each other, and in the spirit of Kurt Vonnegut, God puts certain people together to help each other through the battles of life.It was ordinary people doing extraordinary things for each other under normal circumstances.I liked it.The best line was "Yeeeeah!Alright!"That was hilarious.Kind of sums up how I feel sometimes, you know, "Thank you for doing something interesting..."

this would have been a cute movie if the foul language had been left out. I agree it is intriguing and bold.
