Saw this trailer before christmas. Looks like an enjoyable enough movie. I'd like to see it. I though Emily Blunt was great in Prada.

I'll watch anything Clifton Collins is in. The guys one of the most underrated actors making movies today.

It's a little weird/embarrassing that the people who brought us Little Miss Sunshine brought us another film with the word "sunshine" in the title.

Why? They're a small company and that was a big ticket to the Oscars, not to mention loads of money. Besides they had this one in production for quite some time. I think they should do as many Sunshine movies as they can  :yabbse-grin:

Don't be mislead. It's not a light-hearted comedy. This is nothing like Little Miss Sunshine. Okay, well except for Arkin's role, who gives the almost exact same speech about being different; this time to his grandson. I felt one step ahead of the characters, especially Adams's, who gives a great performance as she always does. Blunt is also always worth watching, and her character is more interesting. But it does fully feel fleshed out. It's a great cast, but you feel like your waiting for each scene to play to get to the next arc point for the characters.
