Sunshine Cleaning indeed seems to shed a little sunshine on a not-often enjoyed task: cleaning. What makes this feel good movie interesting are the circumstances that lead a pair of sisters to a special type of cleaning – biohazard removal. Yeah, dead bodies. The combination of a well done story with engaging interpersonal drama, light humor, and a really good cast, and it ended up being a very pleasing movie.
The trio of Amy Adams, Emily Blunt, and Alan Arkin was a great combination. They complimented each other very well , and well, it just worked! Kudos also to Steve Zahn, who had more of a serious-ish role than we are used to.
