Seattle Post-Intelligencer - William Arnold
No one does this genre better than actor-writer-director Christopher Guest.

Rolling Stone - Peter Travers
Waggish fun like this is too good to miss.

Variety - Eddie Cockrell
A barkingly funny new "mockumentary" that does for those canine pageants what the helmer's 1996 "Waiting for Guffman" did for smalltown theatrics.

The New York Times - Stephen Holden
This comic jigsaw puzzle is crammed with deliriously funny little bits.
88
USA Today - Mike Clark
This giggle does for dog shows what Rob Reiner's "This Is Spinal Tap" (in which Guest plays Nigel Tufnel) did for heavy metal.
