If you laughed at the title of my review check out this movie. It is one of my favorite quotes from the movie.
This however is not a movie for everyone. This is a dark, politically incorrect comedy. There are some obvious laughs like a girl singing, "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You" and dancing with a life size Jesus on the cross.
It has a great cast but the best is Allison Janney as Loretta, Annette and Amber Atkins neighbor. However Kirstie Alley as the slightly insane stage mother is just great.
Like I said not for everyone but if you do like this movie you will want to watch it over and over again.

I'm originally from MN, don't you know. Ya sure, you betcha I loved this movie. Actually, I only lived a few miles from the scene of the "Apple Sales"/"Funeral Home". No joke, there is such a place!!!! Minnesotans fortunately are able to poke fun at themselves. Think Coen brothers, Garrison Keillor, etc. Perhaps if you can't beat'em, (meaning anyone not from MN), join'em. And remember to pronouce Minnesota with a very long emphasized "O".

I got this movie for one reason - Amy Adams was so thrilling in "Enchanted" and "Talledega Nights" that I looked up some of her other movies.
This was her first movie, playing the character of Leslie Miller, the oversexed, airheaded cheerleader who came in third (second runner-up -"I came in second!" - "No, you came in third!") in the beauty pageant of this mockumentary.
It's a different character from the earnest goodness of her more recent roles as Giselle in "Enchanted", Susan in "Talledega nights", and Ashley in "Junebug", but you can still see her total enthusiasm come through. It was this movie, filmed locally in Minnesota, that got her out of doing dinner theater in Minnesota and on her way to Hollywood.
The movie is also interesting as a flashback on the careers of so many other actresses.
Kirsten Dunst was only 17 when this movie was released, and was transitioning from the child actress Claudia in "Inteview with the Vampire" to meatier teenage roles and was on the verge of stardom with the Spider-man franchise.
Kirstie Alley had gone from her "Cheers" leading lady days and in this movie was well on her way to her "Fat Actress" future.
Denise Richards - yet another role where she did a good job but didn't really shine through as a super star.
Brittany Murphy - almost unrecognizable in this movie as the wholesome brunette Lisa Swenson who drops out to give Kirsten Dunst's character a chance in the contest - Murphy would later do a whole series of sexy blonde roles, including Shellie in "Sin City".
Ellen Barkin - she would go straight from this movie to becoming the wife of billionaire Ron Perelman, then divorce in 2006.
As for the movie itself - cute, funny, and sardonic. Not much else to add on top of all of the other reviews here.
Next on the Amy Adams tour - Cruel Intentions 2! Talk about a totally different role!

My co-worker made me get this, thinking I would like it. Not only didn't I like it...I was fast forwarding praying for it to end. Never did see the end.
Anyway thank goodness I got the VHS for like 25c. when in doubt buy the VHS so you can toss it. If you really like it you can always get the DVD. I'll bring it to work and gift him with this horrible tape. OH can you give anything a zero...hmmm guess not

I can't believe the rating this movie has. It was the WORST movie ever made, and I'm not a harsh critic of movies. I had seen the reviews previously, and kept waiting for the movie to actually start. It never did...
