The Sarah Rose American Teen Princess Pageant is a beauty contest to die for! And that's exactly what the contestants in Mount Rose, Minnesota, are doing. Ever since the vivacious-but-vicious former beauty queen Gladys Leeman (Kirstie Alley, TV's Cheers) started pushing her charm-challenged daughter, Rebecca (Denise Richards, The World Is Not Enough), to win at all costs, the competition has been dropping like flies. Between exploding tractors and deadly hunting accidents, it's a wonder the top challenger, poor Amber (Kirsten Dunst, Spider-Man), has the courage to keep her tap shoes on. But after Amber's mother (Ellen Barkin, TV's Animal Kingdom) is injured in a suspicious trailer-park-beauty-shop bombing, Amber is determined to fight to the finish -- and the battle between the good and the bad is about to get ugly! Experience plenty of mom, apple pie and all-American mayhem, plus a hit-packed soundtrack, in this breakthrough comedy that is "clever, fearless and loaded with wicked lines and touches" (Los Angeles Times). Review: Loved It - I absolutely loved this movie. Kirsten Dunst is a scream. It's all pure satire and a spoof of slasher films. Allison Janney is terrific, as is Kirstie Alley. Also, Ellen Barkin is a delight as the always drunk alcoholic mom. A must see! Review: Absolutely one of the funniest movies - Its basically cancel culture bait today, being that its entirely unavailable on streaming platforms. With so many big actors, you would think Drop Dead Gorgeous would be safe from being ignored. Having had a sister in pageants and being a big Kirsten dunst fan, and also having traveled to Minnesota, I truly appeciated so many elements others may not have picked up on. The overall film is hilarious, its staged as a documentary and it covers a broad range of politically incorrect subjects and spotlights religeous hypocracy and small town idiocy. Timing is excellent, short side stories cut throughout are extremely well done, the actors are fantastic and I wish there had been more films this funny. Kirsten Dunst Kirsty Alley Denise Richards Allison Janney Brittney Murphy RIP Amy Adams (very young) Matt Malloy! Ellen Barkin Mindy Sterling Michael McShane Amazing character actors and headliners! The dvd is basic, the functions are basic and the case is standard.

I absolutely loved this movie. Kirsten Dunst is a scream. It's all pure satire and a spoof of slasher films. Allison Janney is terrific, as is Kirstie Alley. Also, Ellen Barkin is a delight as the always drunk alcoholic mom. A must see!

One of the best mockumentaries ever made.
Following a small town beauty pagent in Minnesota, an all star cast gives the "most smartest" performances. I already owned on regular DVD, but had to get Blu-ray for my collection. I could watch this movie every day.

My favorite movie, FINALLY on Blu-Ray!!!
I love this movie SO MUCH that when it was on DVD, I owned 2 copies - one in my TV stand, and one in my fire safe, in case the house burned down. At one point, I paid $85 for a copy when mine was stolen. There was a petition online for a while to put this on Blu-Ray, and they finally listened. So now I have 2 DVDs and a Blu-Ray! Absolute must-see, hysterical movie - especially since I'm from Minnesota!

A good nostalgic movie
My boyfriend loves this movie, so I tracked it down for his birthday. I guess it's out of print and a bit hard to find.

This is one of my favourite comedies and was well ahead of its time. Most of the younger cast went on to become big stars in their own right, and it was nice to see them earlier in their careers, especially Amy Adams. Some of the language used might be offensive to some, but it fits the setting and time period, so I didn't mind it.

So very politicly incorrect if it was made today, but that's why it's funny AF
