"The dog-show mockumentary from the one-time Spinal Tap guitarist is a genuine delight"
Guardian's Peter Bradshow

"A wickedly funny mocumentary by Christopher Guest that makes fun of a Philadelphia dog show with every instrument in the satirist’s arsenal, from the skewer to the mallet. Built around the improvisational techniques of Second City, the movie is consistently just plain funny and sometimes ascends to a kind of crazed genius."
Roger Egbert
