This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Captivating movie !

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

This movie was long, jokes were... punctual. They managed to keep me watching to the end.I don't feel this movie deserves 6 stars, it's a 4 star flick, but I was ready for it to be over 30 minutes in.Cool to see all these guys together. There is a decent ending, funny as anything, but I wish it didn't take so long to get around to it.I like the actors, but maybe they put in a few too many people to get the best out of all of them.Watch the movie, but don't waste your evening after work on it.Use this one for a day when you have nothing to watch, like Netflix did.

We were waiting for this movie to become available after seeing some previews and were not disappointed. I was surprised at the awful reviews--maybe the humor is just too subtle for some folks. It was clever and amusing, with a lot of little amusing details. It's not my favorite of his movies (that would be Best in Show), but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to fans. Fred Willard's character is even more cringe-making than usual, Parker Posey plays pathetically un-self-aware women with such skill, and I really admire the willingness of this group of actors to make themselves pretty unattractive and awkward in the service of the faux-documentary style.

I have laughed outloud at Christopher Guest since his brief stint on Saturday Night Live, through "This Is Spinal Tap", "Waiting for Guffman", "Best in Show", and "A Mighty Wind", I anticipated the release of this movie for months believing that the premise was a winner. Sadly, it was not to be. I only laughed a couple of times feeling like many of the gags were too mechanical and manipulative. Some of the characters had a few good lines but overall I was looking at the clock on the DVD player through much of the movie. Fred Willard, who generally steals every scene he is in really fell flat with his lack-luster performance. He appeared tired, bored, and out of touch--so at least he and I had those three things in common.Sadly I cannot recommend this one. Painful to write, but avoid this one at all costs.

I am a fan of Christopher Guests movies and even put the release date of this on my calendar. WOW what a disappointment. I watched the whole thing waiting for it to get better and it never did. The characters with their bland speaking and a few funny lines never drew me into their lives. I actually was not drawn into any of the characters - they were either not funny or it was blatantly not entertaining. I expected Jane Lynch's character to be funny - about the only funny part was her facial expressions when the judges were watching the competition. In fact the lead up to the competition was sad - so sad. I would really like to say something good about this film but honestly I can't. And to be very honest it was a waste of my time - please do better next time Mr. Guest.
