Pros: Terrific satire of the doggie world. Cons: Despite the PG13 rating, this might not be suitable for most kids.
It's crass, it's political. It can also be funny and self-absorbed. No, not the government arena, the one at your local dog show. Often ridiculed, this can be a place of decit, backstabbing, and some shenanigans that you'd never assoicate with our...
Pros: Hilarious satire about the world of dog competitions Cons: None
I’ve always been a cat person having shared my home with as many as five at one time, though the average felines living with us has usually been 2 or 3, therefore a dog has never even been a guest in this ole house...It’s not that I dislike dogs, ...
Pros: Christopher Guest (Princess Bride's Count Rugen) proves he's one of the smartest satirists in Hollywood Cons: Some of the jokes and improv fall flat
When I was a mere soft-headed lad of pre-puberty, I was in love with a dog.
His name was Shane, he was a Chocolate Labrador Retriever and, to me, he represented everything good about life. My dog was a warm island in an increasingly-baffling...
Pros: Fred Willard, Jane Lynch, Larry Miller Cons: Sense of humor too gentle for subject matter
Best In Show is a comedy about champion show dogs, and the humans who dote on them. Told in a documentary style, it tells the tale of one year in the lives of the owners of five dogs, and the owners' efforts to make their pets champions. For each...
Pros:Best in Show goes after mean-spirited people . . . Cons: . . . in a mean-spirited way.
Philosopher Thomas Hobbes says that we laugh when we feel superior to something or someone. If that's true, then the laughter should absolutely never stop in Best in Show, Christopher Guest's scathing mockumentary on people who not only take...
Pros: Excellent comedic effort. Cons: Distant at times.
I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that it’s okay to make fun of people. There are, certainly, some rules to the people you can make fun of (or the sets of people you can make fun of), but surely there are some. That being said,...
Pros: it was less than 90 minutes long, there was no sticky film on the theatre floor Cons: very few laughs, poor character development, minimal plot, SO many missed opportunities for humor
I must have walked into the wrong movie theatre. Yeah, that's it. Best In Show has gotten such great reviews, that I'm certain I must have seen some other movie. The movie that I saw was lousy.
Pros: Parker Posey is at her shrill, shrieking best; All the doggies are cool; The improv is hysterical Cons: Several of the gags fall flat; Fred Willard is annoying.
You know the type; the people that talk nonsense to their dogs and treat them like small retarded children. The people that always refer to their animal as 'Mr. something' or something ending in 'IE'. (Mookie, Loopie, Crotchie) Those people who are so...
Pros: funniest movie I've possibly ever seen, including "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" Cons: it ended
This past weekend I had a chance to visit the movies again and I got to see a winner this time! I’ve had some lousy luck recently, and it was a pleasant surprise to see such an entertaining and relatively clean film.
I remember seeing this movie when it first came out. I was aware of what a mockumentary is at the time, but I still wasn’t that interested. For those that don’t know, a mockumentary is a mock documentary. In this case, it’s a fictional account of ...
Pros: Funny and Interesting... Cons: Main Characters are Depressing.
Christopher Guest (writer/actor/director of Waiting for Guffman) is back in theaters with another fictional documentary...and this time he's gone to the dogs, figuratively speaking, of course.
Pros: Good acting Cons: Unengaging characters, poor script, dragging story line
Dogs are contenders for the most popular pet in the United States, as well as several other major countries. As the interest in dogs has grown, so also has the interest in dog shows. What was once reserved for the upper classes of the economic level has ...
Pros: It ended well, I guess Cons: I was bored, the jokes weren't funny, I wasted my money
The best acting in this movie was done by the dogs. There was a great deal of star power and yet no one shined. I immediately knew that I wouldn't like the movie because the actors began talking to the viewer. I have never really cared much for movies...
Christopher Guest brings his unique brand of lunacy to the screen with another mockumentary in the tradition of WAITING FOR GUFFMAN. This one BEST IN ...More at Family Video
