This movie is fantastic. If you liked any of the Christopher Guest movies (A Mighty Wind, Waiting for Guffman, Spinal Tap), you will definitely like this as well. The cast is many from those great movies as well and all are very funny. The acting is very good in this and you should pay attention to the commentary during the dog show, Fred Willard is great. The movie is a spoof of dog shows, but mostly it is a poke at the owner's of the dogs. Each couple is an interesting take on absurdity and people who take something as simple as the family pet too seriously. The people are very over the top and very humorous, especially if you watched the documentary style show of pet owners on cable or any of the dog shows. The bonus material is pretty limited in this release, but interesting. The commentary by Christopher Guest and Eugene Levy is interesting and the additional scenes are good. As with all Christopher Guest movies, this was sort of unscripted for the actors and so their genius plays out and is apparent with the additional scenes. It would have been nice to see bloopers or the rest of the extra footage from the movie, I'm sure there was more, but in no way does that take away from the movie.Read full review
I love the characters and their background stories. I find it hilarious -- the actors are perfect for the characters they play.

Once I see a movie, I'm seldom one to go back and watch it over. My definition of a 'favorite movie' therefore, is one I can watch over and over again and love it every time. I am 50 years old and there are only about 4-5 movies that fall into this category for me. Best in Show is definitely one of them. It is one of the most hilarious movies I have ever seen. There are not just a few funny parts, this movie is jam packed with funny lines, ridiculous characters, and proposterous situations. Whether you have a twisted sense of humor (me), or just your everyday normal person sense of humor, you will love this movie. Only if you have absolutely no sense of humor, will you think its 'stupid', as one reviewer put it. Love it, love it, love it!!!!
I love this mockumentary. Just the laugh I needed during such a serious time in the world.

Another Christopher Guest winner that hits all the targets as he pokes fun at a national dog show and the owners who vie for the trophy. Hilarious characters and situations are spot on and this parody ranks right up there with Spinal Tap and Waiting for Guffman. Another classic!

Aren't dogs just a reflection of ourselves? "Best In Show" subtlety and not-so-subtlety reminds us dog lovers of the lengths we'll go to have "best in show" pets. Meanwhile, we humans struggle with all the usual human conditions and afflictions that make us "human."

I love anything by Christopher Guest!! I wish he would make more movies. He has the Midas touch when it comes to comedy. He is just so talented. Musically as well. I will immediately buy anything that he puts out.

Perhaps the best Christopher Guest movie in his repertoire! Character development is particularly well done, and while the plot is simple, the richness of the cast brings an extremely well-crafted variety to the story. Extremely funny, and delightfully heart-warming at the same time!
