this movie should go down as one of the funny movie in history . it cousin a mighty wind and spinal tap and wait for guffman be terrific in their own right but best in show take the cake . a movie about the idiosyncrasy of dog owner that show their dog competitively and it the intricacy of the character that make it so good . after watch the movie about 75 time i have come to the conclusion that there be no weak character or actor in this film . there be very little interaction between any of the group of character but that only seem to add to the beauty of the film . if you watch this movie and do not find it as funny a i be bill it a and watch it again . the first time i saw it i think it be serviceable but not overly hilarious . it be a film that grow on you . defininatly a movie that you will find yourself quote frequently . character represent hamilton and meg swan represent a plus if you get the dvd check out how these character be bear amaze that these two could hit it so on the head . and to find out that they really do not go by a script and sort of made it up a they go . gerry and cookie guggleman represent a cookie be especially funny and she do a fantastic job of sell the cookie character . gerry ( eugene levy ) deliver his standard stellar performance of the hilarious discombobulated type weaker half . stefan vanderhoof and scott donalan a plus find me a funny character than scott donalan and i dare you . he will forever be typecast a this character to me a he be so natural and do not seem force at any point . stefan ( micheal mckean ) be very good a well and they interplay here ( and a brief appearance with the gugglemans ) go to show why he be always in these film . a great actor with razor like wit . harlan pepper b plus and i do not want it to seem like he isn not funny and he sure be but be the only solo act he can not be quite as funny a the others above . he do use the dog more than others and have some other idiosyncrasy go for him . the rest be all great a well and there be no weak character . see this film at least twice . buy it and you will not regret it .
