À propos de ce film

Father Richard (Greg Kinnear) is desperately trying to sell his motivational success program... with no success. Meanwhile, "pro-honesty" mom Sheryl (Toni Collette) lends support to her eccentric family, including her depressed brother (Steve Carell), fresh out of the hospital after being jilted by his lover. Then there are the younger Hoovers - the seven-year-old, would-be beauty queen Olive (Abigail Breslin) and Dwayne (Paul Dano), a Nietzsche-reading teen who has taken a vow of silence. Topping off the family is the foul-mouthed grandfather (Alan Arkin), whose outrageous behavior recently got him evicted from his retirement home. When Olive is invited to compete in the "Little Miss Sunshine" pageant in far-off California, the family piles into their rusted-out VW bus to rally behind her - with riotously funny results.

Notes et avis

CAN'T WATCH IT! I paid $4.99 for a 48 hr rental. Every time I try to play this movie it restarts my phone! I WANT MY MONEY BACK! 0 STARS

The girl is okay, but her family... no. They cuss too much! (Sometimes for no reason at all.) One time The girl's dad said " I don't know where the f*** you are.

Very inspirational (towards being optimistic with your life), a tearjerker, and puts far more big smiles on your face than tears in your eyes. Totally recommend. Even dabbles in philosophy a bit of which is a bonus for me.
