Read More I saw this at one of the screenings, so I can't comment on the special features, but I'll say the movie was very funny. Great acting, really offbeat humor, and a really engaging story. The film makes great use of the single location to tell the story of a brother who wants to off his sister's fiance, but just doesn't seem to have a clue how to do it. A wonderful example of a low-budget indie and an absolute must-see for Stargate fans. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More This is a fun, first-time outing for Stargate Atlantis star David Hewlett. Patrick (David Hewlett) is a bit of an odd character who doesnât take the news well when his sister (played by Davidâs sister Kate) brings home her fiancé Ryan (played by Atlantis co-star Paul McGillion). Itâs a loving tribute to films like âArsenic and Old Laceâ and âA Fish Called Wanda.â It has all the stuff that makes British comedies so much fun (even though itâs a Canadian film). The comedy is slapstick. The violence is all implied. And, in its own, twisted way, thereâs a lot of family love. If youâre not into sci-fi, donât let the cast and crew turn you off. This is not sci-fi (although it does poke a little fun) and itâs a great time. Keep an eye out for scene-stealer Mars (the dog). Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||

Read More Forget the synopsis that Blockbuster is showin (which is the one that starts with "Jealousy, murder and bad acting", in case they see the light and change it.) Watch the movie, and you'll notice that the only thing they got right in that review is the actors' names.
The movie is way beyond funny, an its really worth watching (says someone who's seen it 5 times in movie theaters and who's wating for the DVD to arrive!). Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||
4 out of 5 people found this review helpful I'd been anticipating this movie for awhile now as a Stargate: SG-1 and Stargate: Atlantis fan. I wasn't sure what to expect in terms of the plot, but I really enjoyed the movie. There were some laugh-out-loud moments of comedy and a wonderful appearance by an SG-1 actor who I won't name to avoid spoilers. There were also some moments of suspense befitting a horror film, helped by Tim Williams' score. I recommend "A Dog's Breakfast" for Stargate fans and non-fans alike.WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL?

ROTFL funny. This movie is worth full price for original comedy. And although this is not Science Fiction, if you are a Stargate SG1 and Stargate Atlantis fan it makes this all the more fun as it has your favorite actors. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL?

plotting dastardly ways to be rid of the body. I was going to give it one star then I remembered âThe Tenâ and had to up the star count on this since this just wasn't that bad. Close this Review WAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes | No | ||
