Even with “Oscar season” yet to come, it’s safe to say that Little Miss Sunshine is one of the year’s very best. This inspirational, hilariously sad dysfunctional-family-road-trip dramedy offers absolutely everything--except pretension.
Hitchhiker Guide to the Galaxy fans will admire the striking visual effects, laugh at familiar scenes and leave the theater satisfied, though a little disappointed with the left-out bits. But the inside jokes and loopy antics could throw the general population into a panic--a violation of the Guide's golden rule.
