theryugobuddy Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 Quirky and excellent movie -- A family of misfits drive their daughter to a pageant a few states away from home -- that's the plot. That's it. But-- there are so many surprises that come in unexpected ways. The problems they all go through and the resolve they show to get there is fascinating to watch. At any time, you look at these loser characters and think they deserve to be where they are in life, and yet their faults prove to be strengths. A great story about seemingly average people -- its a family movie for adults. I hope it gets some awards -- this needs to be seen-- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Amy Posted January 15, 2007 Moderators Share Posted January 15, 2007 The feel good movie of the year. I found it to be a little too dark to call it that, but I definitely was laughing loudly at several parts. Overall though, I found it to be a bit depressing. Dysfunction, USA. But absolutely a great film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flannj Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Quirky, odd, and fun. I agree that it is a family movie for adults (and older kids). Amy is correct, it is a little dark at times, but I subscribe to the belief that all families are crazy. We watched it as a family and enjoyed it quite a bit.

TNRabbit Posted February 28, 2007 Share Posted February 28, 2007 The movie was very good, "She's a Brick House" elevated it to great...............IMO "Brick House" was not in the movie; I think you're referring to Rick James "Superfreak"...
