Description:Rose Lorkowski (Amy Adams) was a popular cheerleader in high school, but now she's just a maid and a single mom who has to take care of her son, father Joe (Alan Arkin) and lazy sister Norah (Emily Blunt). A cop with whom Rose is having a fling suggests she gets into crime scene clean-up. She convinces Norah to help, and soon the business is thriving. Rose wants to show up all her high-school friends, so she goes to a baby shower to brag about her business. Norah tackles a job by herself and burns down a house. Things look bleak, but Joe decides to sell his house to get the money to get Rose back in business under a new name, while Norah takes off on a road trip.

Review - Sunshine Cleaning

A movie about dysfunctional people trying to survive in a dysfunctional world. It actually manages to be rather sweet somehow, although I could do without the fling and the language.
