Good flick! Very funny., 18 May 2000
7/10
Author: Matt Huls (cowman777@hotmail.com) from Westland, MI, USA

This is a great film for anyone who hates beauty pageants, and enjoys dark humor. The "mockumentary" aspect was done greatly, and the performances were also great, especially by (the very hot) Kirsten Dunst. I really like films that poke fun at serious topics (like death and mourning), and this one did a great job of it without being completely tasteless.
