Little Miss Sunshine | Ratings & Reviews

"Family road trip comedy that shoots down the American culture of the winner and offers sweet redemption for losers. Distinguished by a flawless cast, a gentle spirit of rebellion and a smart script..."

VarietyVariety

"Tucked in between all the hurt and the jokes, the character development and the across-the-board terrific performances is a surprisingly sharp look at contemporary America..."

The New York TimesThe New York Times

"Sly, near-perfect comedy..."

San Francisco ChronicleSan Francisco Chronicle

Dayton and Faris boldly satirise traditional American values without the easy cynicism - hilariously encapsulated by Olive's precocious posturing at the beauty contest..."
