Many people, this reviewer included, believe "This is Spinal Tap" to be the funniest film of all-time. So when you hear that dopey guitarist Nigel Tufnel, alias actor/writer/director Christopher Guest, is ready to unleash another slice of 'mock-doc' on the world, it is fair to expect great things.
And you won't be disappointed. This time, the backstage shenanigans of an 80s rock band are replaced with the surreal world of professional dog shows. Among its oddball citizens are Gerry and Cookie Fleck (Levy and O'Hara), a buck-toothed wet blanket and ex-nympho respectively; a neurotic, overly competitive couple; and a gay couple - perhaps the only really happy ones of the bunch.
Brilliantly observed, acerbically funny, "Best in Show" is even more impressive for the fact that it is largely improvised, a fact that should remind everyone that the whole cast deserve equal acclaim for the non-stop laughs. Managing to take the mickey out of a pretty absurd pastime, it also maintains an affection for its subjects other similarly-themed movies fail to do.
It would be unfair to compare it point blank with the pure genius that is "Tap", but suffice to say, while this may not have the same effect on the cultural landscape that the former did, this remains a unique, entertaining, and most importantly, incredibly funny film.
