Pros: Good accents
Cons: Not very funny--pretty lame
I originally saw this movie because I thought it looked pretty funny. I
found out very quickly that it was not very funny. First of all, they
made it look like a documentary. I wasn't expecting that at all. It
was just a different...

Pros: Funny, Entertaining
Cons: Could be morbid to the serious
For those with a sense of humor that enjoys a more tasteless comedy. Not for the pretentious. I happen to love tasteless comedy that is not vulgar. so this movie was very enjoyable. It pokes fun at everyone with out getting vulgar or disgusting....

Pros: Hilarious plot, Denise Richards, Ellen Barkin
Cons: taking it too far, the ending
This movie is hilarious from beginning to end. It is also sad the way it exposes trailer park trash in America. What many may see as everyday life is ridiculed to the end in this flick. Denise Richards is fine as hell in this movie, but the snobbiest,...

Pros: Makes you happy you're not Miss America
Cons: slow
Awww, a pseudo-documentary about a beauty contest, a novel idea if you haven't seen This is Spinal Tap. But at least it hadn't been over used as a format, yet. The pseudo-documentary format has some inherit flaws, one being that the jokes are hard to...

Pros: hot girls
Cons: Stupid
This movie leads you to think something is going to happen only to find that....it does. No imagination, no plot for me to ruin for you. There are a couple of hot girls in the movie, but thats about all it has going for it. This movie has no redeming...

Pros: Some humor
Cons: Everything else
I ended up seeing this movie after a friend of mine coerced me into renting it. This was an absolutely terrible film. The only part that made it somewhat interesting is the comedy.
Kirsten Dunst has put a scratch on her name. Her performance...

Pros: funny, decent acting, good plot, somewhat original
Cons: obvious tobacco company influence
Kristen Dunst hasn't exactly made the wisest acting decisions recently. Most of the movies she has had a role in, including Drop Dead Gorgeous, have bombed. However, Drop Dead Gorgeous isn't half bad. Don't dismiss this movie as another beauty pageant...

Pros: That I did not pay $7.00 to see it in the movies.
Cons: Where do I start?
This movie had to be the worst movie that I ever saw. If not the worst, it definitely fits up there in the top 3. I rented the movie because I was told that it was hilarious, well the only person that was laughing, was the cashier at blockbuster...

Pros: It has its funny moments
Cons: It is not what you would call a smart movie
Make no mistake. Drop Dead Gorgeous is a bad movie. A very bad movie.
The plot is unimaginative, many of the jokes are cliched much of the acting is, as those artsy-fartsy movie critics would say, uninspired. I would still recommend this movie...

Pros: very funny, great cast, and very cynical
Cons: a little predictable at times
Drop Dead Gorgeous is a funny, sinister, and sarcastic look at an American beauty pageant. The film is done in a mock documentary style and is very, very, funny. It has everything you could want in a movie, pop culture references, a snide look at a...

by SusanGranger  - Top 1000, Dec 24 '99
Pros: Good acting performances and subject ripe for satire
Cons: It's been done - better - before
Don't be surprised if you find yourself wishing the "gorgeous" girls would just drop dead in this heavy-handed mock documentary. Set in Mount Rose, Minnesota, it purports to examine a small-town beauty pageant. Here in the hallowed...

Pros: Mock beauty pageants!
Cons: Fairly predictable
I first heard about this movie when it was playing at the San Francisco film festival. It sounded kind of quirky and fun... black comedies are the best. I didn't end up seeing it though until good old Bargain Tuesday at theater. It was fairly enjoyable,...

Pros: Some very good performances, including that of Ellen Barkin
Cons: Too much violence
I thought a movie about a vicious beauty pageant would be a lot of fun. I didn't realize that parody would be stretched to the point of violence. Yes, this was quite a violent movie with people being blown apart while others are shot through the head....

Pros: funny concept
Cons: not funny or well made at all
“Drop Dead Gorgeous” wants to be ”Waiting For Guffman”. It’s that simple. They tried to make a pseudo-documentary about a beauty pageant in suburban Minnesota. They tried to make it clever, dark, and funny. They didn’t succeed in any of these...

Pros: Some of the jokes were funny
Cons: Insulting humor
I am the mother of a teenage daughter, so I know well how important popularity, looks and all the right clothes are to her. This movie exaggerates these things and more.
The plot involves a teen beauty pageant, a overbearing stage mother, and...
