Improv is Art!

by BrickHaus , Dec 12 '00
Pros: Great acting, funny dialogue
Cons: What cons?
this film tickled my comedic tastebuds by addeing something new to an old idea. Improv comedy at it's finest can be found at its best in the pooch contest film. Before we get totally nuts, let's look at the plot...

This entire movie is hot...

Ruff Stuff!

by BillTK , Dec 05 '00
Pros: great improvisational acting
Cons: The Parker Posey/Michael Hitchcock portions
Christopher Guest’s new faux-documentary is although not as consistently uproarious as his previous mock piece, Waiting For Guffman, it will still keep you laughing and smiling, sometimes ear to ear. These two films, Guffman and Best in Show offer up...

Fantastically Funny Mockumentary

by charl11 , Dec 03 '00
Pros: hilarious, non- predictable, short
Cons: no depth, but who cares?
I wasn't sure if I wanted to see this movie at first as I have always thought dog shows are ridiculous, pretentious, and exploit animals, but I really enjoyed this movie.

There are laughs from the beginning to the end as we follow a wide...

I'm still laughing

by annabug , Nov 30 '00
Pros: original concept, extremely funny, great acting
Cons: no cons!
Best in Show is a hilarious fake documentary about the world of dog shows and the dog owners. The film follows the daily lives of the dog owners as they are preparing to go to the dog show. My favorite is the neurotic yuppie couple and their...

Good Dog

by stevediseb , Nov 30 '00
Pros: very funny, unique
Cons: Not much plot
Any fan of Christopher Guest or of mock-umentries should not be disappointed by this film. Filled with believable acting, you believe that these crazy dog owners are real. What makes the movie even funnier is that you know there are really people out...

Who's on show here?

by box543 , Nov 22 '00
Pros: funny and unlike any other film in the theaters; great actors
Cons: will not appeal to fans of more traditional movie fare
"Best in Show" is not a movie that the masses will enjoy. However, if you've ever been to a dog show… if you've ever met someone who went to dog shows… if you or someone you know has the tendency to take their dog ownership way too serious… if...

Doggie Style

by affirmed , Nov 21 '00
Pros: consistently funny
Cons: unnecessary sexual humor
i was prompted to see the movie after reading an article about Christopher Guest in a recent issue of VANITY FAIR. Unlike most modern comedies which are really romantic melodramas, BEST IN SHOW is an unsentimental satire. The plot revolves around the...

Pretty funny

by aindovin , Nov 21 '00
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...

A doggy lovers Sub consience

by princessmc , Nov 21 '00
Pros: Humor, Dogs, and a show, who could ask for more?
Cons: too short
Why do I love my dog? Probably for the same reason these people love their dogs too much. Anyone who has a beloved four-legged friend should definitely see this film. I call it a film because is neither a movie nor a documentary for real.

Why aren't my dogs making me rich?

by nrhoover , Nov 20 '00
Pros: Lots of funny lines
Cons: If you don't like satire, this one isn't for you.
As soon as I got home from Best in Show, I had a long talk with my dogs about their ambitions in life . . . and mine! They have decided they do not want to act and therefore will never make me rich. Oh well.

If you've ever had such thoughts...

Hilarious and Cute Dogs Too

by icepirates , Nov 17 '00
Pros: Funny, well acted, cute dogs
Cons: ending a little weak
I recently went and saw "Best in Show" on a date, and although a comedy about dog shows might not sound like prime date material, i have to say that i couldn't have enjoyed myself more! The team that brought us "Waiting for Guffman"...

Wonderfully Fluffy

by DiscoDylan , Nov 16 '00
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.
