Read More Being a big fan of CHristopher Guest movies, it was disappointing that this movie does not measure up to Waiting for Guffman, Best in Show, or A Mighty Wind. There are some funny moments but overall much of the humor falls flat. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More Having enjoyed the prior movies, (Best in Show, Waiting for Guffman....) this production seemed to rest on the exausted themes of the prior films. I'm trying to be kind to the actors, but this movies really blows. I was able to get through the whole thing because I got a long distance call and never paused the movie.

Read More I borrowed this dvd after being recommended by a coworker. Started watching it with my wife and folks after justifying to them that this movie is supposedly a great piece of satire. After the movie started, withing half an hour, of the four who started, I was the only one left. All of them went to bed after being bored to deat by the slow pace and lack of quality witty matter which the review promised. After they left, I tried my best to hold up but within 5 minutes of them leaving I too fell asleep on the sofa. This movie could be used as alternative to Lunesta- will do wonders for those who have difficulty in getting sleep. Just Avoid. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More This was not my favorite Guest film but I had to see it because I always love his cast and the silliness that ensues amongst them. It wasn't reat but it had its moments. If you want hilarity, watch Best In Show again. This will entertain though and is worth the time for a few moments. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More I was really excited when I got this movie home, and that's where my excitement ended. I am a big fan of Christopher Guest and his enseble casts but this movie left me wanting sooo much more. I had a very hard time continuing to watch, it seemed endless! If you are wanting to see a good Chrisopher Guest film, for you consideration I would suggest Wating for Guffman or Best in Show. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

I chuckled here and there but for the all star power packed cast it fell short. Hopefully they'll put more time and thought into the next one. If you liked waiting for gufman and best in show then pass on this one and leave yourself with a postivie perception of this genius film maker. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No |
