Movie Review: Best In Show (Guest)

Everyone loves a good pseudo-documentary, right? Well, maybe not. But this is pretty funny. Lots of amusing characters, lots of funny sequences. Nothing too substantial, I guess, but it seems like a movie that must be incredibly fun to make. It is also nice knowing that it isn't real so you don't feel bad laughing at some of the craziness of the people on-screen. This dragged a little during a couple of scenes that went on too long, and a few of the characters were a little too much like caricatures. But I laughed a bunch of times. My favorite scene was probably actually one of the "deleted scenes" on the DVD where the bloodhound owner shows off his collection of beachballs. That is bizarrely funny, in that way that is overdone without really being overdone. What the Simpsons used to be, unlike the overdone bizarreness it is now.
