Little Miss Sunshine - 7/10

I gave this movie an average rating, based on personal opinion, that it was going to be screamingly hilarious. I reached this prejudgement by all the publicity and commercialization of the movie. Only to my suprise, it wasn’t as much of a comedy as it was a generally heart warming movie.

Now, this movie does have it’s funny points, and Steve Carrell does a great job in this film. His lack of emotion at all the key points and that kinky run he has makes some parts of this movie really enjoyable. But the real gem in this film is the ending. It really teaches you a life lesson, despite all the wacky things that happen on the way there.

Overall, it was pretty good. I wouldn’t recommend taking your kids under 11 to see this movie unless they are pretty mature about things. But I dont even see why this movie was rated R in the first place. Ive seen worse movies that were rated pg-13.
