Best in Show is one of a string of mocumentaries created by Christopher Guest and friends. You may have seen"This is Spinal Tap" or possibly "Waiting for Guffman", both hilarious documentary spoofs. Best in Show hit theaters in 2000 and stars Christopher Guest, Eugene Levy, Parker Posey and Fred Willard to name a few. This film takes a comic look at the world of big time dog shows. The characters in this comedy include an uptight yuppie couple and their neurotic weirmeraimer, a back woods hunter and his faithful bloodhound and a quirky couple and their feisty terrier.
I love the way this mocumentary never steps out of character. Never once does it let on that it is supposed to be a comedy. I have even know some unexpected viewers that were fooled in the first few minutes. But the hilarious situations and the characters zany reactions will have you laughing until you cry. I highly recommend this movie and Christopher Guest's other well done spoofs as well.
Review......4 out of 5 popcorn bags
