Pros: dogs are cute, the guy with 2 left feet
Cons: the movie
Another movie I was looking forward to watching that fell flat. It's almost like watching home movies. It follows several couples getting ready to compete in the Mayflower dog show. It's filmed like a home movie with interviews. The interviews are kind...

Pros: Great humor
Cons: Not a huge storyline
This movie isn't your typical plot/story line movie. It's more of a narration of several characters, and follows many of them all the way through. There are no HUGE names here, but great performances by all. If you like "black comedy," you...

Pros: a lot of fun for pet owners
Cons: would have liked to have seen more dogs
This is a pretty funny movie that focuses on the people that enter their pets into a dog show rather than the dogs themselves.
It basically shows how ridiculous people are and can be about their dogs.
The cast is mainly made up of actors...

Pros: Hillarious
Cons: Gay Stereotypes
Sometimes I can be a little suspicious of movies that are only entertainment and nothing more. This is one of those movies. that having been said, it's great. The plot is simple the script is character driven, and it works wonderfully.

Pros: Funny, silly
Cons: Wanted more about the dogs
The Best in Show is a mockumentary, which is a movie masquerading as a documentary. "Best" purportedly takes us behind the scenes preparation for a dog show in Philadelphia. It is difficult to explain a mockumentary. Think of an actor...

Pros: Christopher Guest is a genius!
Cons: Not many people appreciate the mockumentary format.
An auspicious beginning to the Fall Movie Season! Christopher Guest does it again with Best In Show. "Waiting for Guffman" was a brilliant take of the people involved in community theater, and "Best In Show" is a brilliant,...

Pros: laugh-out-loud funny
Cons: none
Any movie with Christopher Guest (Waiting for Guffman) is a howler and this one is no exception.
I haven't seen this kind of fine ensemble casting since the glory days of Robert Altman. These are some of the finest comic actors working...

Cons: Grows on you.

Pros: funny, cool dogs, gay humor
Cons: not that funny, slow, stereotypes
I would describe this movie as adequately funny. It's a great idea (thank god it got made before we had to live through a movie of the SNL "Dog Show" skit), and some of the characters are hysterical and at least to me, somewhat familiar. The...

Pros: VERY FUNNY, original, entertaining
Cons: odd humor, no special effects
This has to be the funniest movie I have ever seen. It is based on about five diffrnt types of people, who train there dogs and bring them to a dog show. The whole time, you get to see that your not the only one who talks like that to there dogs!...

Pros: wacky
Cons: too wacky
Are you one of those people that finds yourself watching too much cable TV and even find the dog show entertaining? If so then this is the movie for you - it gives the back story behind all those goofy dog owners and what is up with the announcers. We...

Pros: Hysterical, smart, unique
Cons: Long boring outtakes section of DVD
This is a mockumentary of epic proportions. This is a terrific, Spinal Tap-type movie of a crazy world. It takes on the purebred dog show circuit and pokes fun at the whole thing.
Each of the handful of characters and character sets are terrific....

Pros: A really funny movie
Cons: It was'nt a good plot , but it was funny
Now, is this movie actually better than "Waiting for Guffman"? Mmmm, no. As that group of characters built
toward something together, it had more punch in the end, rather than watching the new bunch take turns

Pros: Hilarious satire of the dog show world that is a on the mark.
Cons: could have been fleshed out more and showed some positives
A great comedy in it's own right, but if you know anything about dog shows you will be rolling on the floor. While some of the stereotypes are a bit over the top they are right on a lot of the handlers/owners in the show world. If you have ever...

Pros: humorous, entertaining
Cons: a little cliche at times
This movie will keep you entertained form beginning to end.
It's a light-hearted comedy that was written, produced and directed by Christopher Guest, who also produced Waiting for Guffman.
The main theme is a pseudo-documentary on people who...
