From NetFlix:

Convinced little Olive (Abigail Breslin) is beauty queen material, parents Richard (Greg Kinnear) and Sheryl (Toni Collette) and the rest of the family embark on a life-altering road trip to a pageant in this madcap comedy. Struggling motivational speaker Richard pushes Olive to win, while her silent brother (Paul Dano), depressed uncle (Steve Carell) and nursing-home reject grandpa (Alan Arkin, in an Oscar-winning role) add their own quirks to the mix.

I did not need “1001 Films To See Before You Die” to tell me this is a “must see” film. The ensemble acting is well-done. The family bus all by itself is a real hoot. Little Olive is just plain cute and her final beauty queen performance is an unexpected riot. But with all its sexual references, it is not for small children.
