	DVDFILE.COM: Drop Dead Gorgeous review
		That lesson is epitomized by New Line's Drop Dead Gorgeous, but while the film does have a really nasty side to it that I highly appreciated, it's still not quite a home run.
		Drop Dead Gorgeous uses the mock-documentary style that was really effective in parodies like This is Spinal Tap, though not quite so much here.
		Drop Dead Gorgeous wouldn't allow for that and for that reason is much funnier than it probably should have been.

	Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999)
		Drop Dead Gorgeous is a hilarious mockumentary, which will go down as one of the funniest movies of the year, and also the best film about making a documentary.
		Drop Dead Gorgeous is the type of film that I will be quoting lines from for years to come, as the dialogue exchanged among characters is hysterical.
		Alley is making a career saving decision with Drop Dead Gorgeous, as her television series "Veronica's Closet" is slowly losing its popularity, and her last film, 1997's For Richer or Poorer didn't perform to well at the box office, or with critics.

	Salon Arts & Entertainment \| "Drop Dead Gorgeous" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
		In a fictional town where careerism is defined as "once a carny, always a carny" and a cigarette-puffing teen claims she can't attend a parade because she's, like, due that day, credibility is clearly not so much on the filmmakers' agenda as is sheer lunacy.
		It helps tremendously that those lines are being delivered by such capable actors, and "Drop Dead Gorgeous" boasts some surprisingly inspired performances -- Ellen Barkin in particular, with her Farrah hair and Naugahyde tan, her hand literally fused to a beer can-cum-ashtray, is utterly fearless as Amber's low-rent but softhearted mom.
		In a summer of rude comedies, "Drop Dead Gorgeous" may be the rudest of all, one that eschews cheap body fluid humor (well, except for that group vomit scene) and dares to go for the jugular.

	Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999): Reviews
		A wickedly colorful, twisted comedy, Drop Dead Gorgeous probes the heart of a small Minnesota town where a fictional teen beauty pageant has unleashed a fury of very unladylike behavior.
		It should be renamed "Drop Dead Ghetto" and hauled off to the "Jerry Springer" hall of shame.
		The crude humor in Drop Dead Gorgeous does not have a moral point to it.

	DROP DEAD GORGEOUS - DVD
		Drop Dead Gorgeous is a mockumentary (my most-loathed genre) that fails to evoke a sense of documentary, and a comedy that's hurtin' for laughs.
		In Drop Dead Gorgeous, the gross-outs include scenes of models puking, as well as a protracted gag about Amber's deformed mother (Ellen Barkin), a woman with a beer can permanently welded to her drinking hand.
		Drop Dead Gorgeous is stale and woefully inobservant.

	Drop Dead Gorgeous - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Drop Dead Gorgeous was a film originally released in 1999.
		Fearing for her life, Amber decides to pull out of the pageant when her mother Annette (Ellen Barkin), is injured during an explosion at their trailer.
		Drops out of the pageant at the last minute so Amber can compete, but was supposed to sing and dance to "New York, New York".

	Drop Dead Gorgeous - Movie Review
		And if Drop Dead Gorgeous has a singular flaw, it’s that it tries too hard to be Spinal Tap.
		Gorgeous actually began life as a sleepy independent film called Dairy Queens, but, as is common in Hollywood, the gears began a-shiftin’ in the heads of sundry studio executives, and before you knew it, Dairy Queens became a big Hollywood movie.
		Gorgeous keeps a measure of its indie charm by placing the action in a tiny Minnesota town called Mount Rose, which is hosting its annual teen beauty pageant, to the delight of the town’s residents.

	DVD Verdict Review - Drop Dead Gorgeous
		Drop Dead Gorgeous is shot like a documentary, following a pageant in a small town in Minnesota.
		The lead actresses of Drop Dead Gorgeous are far from being my favorites (with the exception of Kirsten Dunst), but they all manage to be credible and watchable.
		Drop Dead Gorgeous is a typically high-quality New Line production, though it's not part of their "Platinum Series," so it's not as feature-laden.

	Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
		Drop Dead Gorgeous is a filmed in the style of a documentary, a la 'This is Spinal Tap' and follows the escapades of a group of contenders in the annual beauty pageant.
		The characters in Drop Dead Gorgeous are all, with the exception of Amber Atkins, disagreeable, shallow and overblown stereotypes.
		This is one of this movie's main assets; it has the parodying of stereotypical people spot on; we've got an "I'm not a pervert" pervert judge, an insensitive, egotistical head of the richest family in town, the overenthusiastic boyfriend and many other colourful and amusing characters.

	Ink 19 :: Drop Dead Gorgeous
		The result is a howlingly funny movie that is smart and dead-on in its satire.
		Whether Amber is practicing her tap-dancing routine while working as a make-up artist at a mortuary, or bravely dealing with the violence inflicted on her loved ones, she proves that belief in your dreams can help you survive just about anything, including repeated sabotage, without losing your sense of self.
		Drop Dead Gorgeous skewers American traditions on a grand scale, and does so without any remorse.

		But that gripe seems inconsequential in light of all the drop dead gorgeously-realized hysteria that has gone before.
		Drop Dead Gorgeous is a sophisticated comedy, kind of like what Waiting for Guffman should have been.
		Gorgeous isn't quite the word I'd use to describe the film but it is drop dead hilarious.

		Drop Dead Gorgeous is a satirical look at the world of American Teen Beauty Pageants, done in the extremely popular style of a spoof documentary.

		Drop Dead Gorgeous is a film about a teenage beauty pageant.
		However, unlike a lot of films of the same ilk; here, hidden behind a facade of teen beauty and all the other trademarks of the teen comedy genre, is an intelligently written, witty and very dark satire on the consumer society.
		Drop Dead Gorgeous is a film that will be overlooked by many because it's a teen comedy.

	TheMovieBoy Review: Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999)
		"Drop Dead Gorgeous" may be a breakthrough in mainstream comedy.
		"Drop Dead Gorgeous," vibrantly directed by Michael Patrick Jann, pulls out all the stops to give us one of the most snappy, biting comedies to come out in some time, and that the film is rated PG-13 is rather amazing considering some of the sure-to-be-controversial story elements.
		Topped with a memorable, catchy soundtrack, successful documentary-like cinematography, by Michael Spiller, and an endless stream of laugh-inducing, outrageous dialogue, "Drop Dead Gorgeous" is a huge comic winner, and one of the best times at the movies I've had all year.

		The one hour special highlights the life of the HIV positive comedian as he tells stories of his life in Danville, Virginia, his days on the comedy circuit, and his struggles with AIDS and HIV.
		Flashing from recreations of his life, interviews with his parents Wilma and Skeets, and Moore in front of a live audience, the special explores an issue that many would rather forget or keep hidden.
		"Drop Dead Gorgeous" is another example of exemplary original programming from the cable network.

	DVD REVIEW: "DROP DEAD GORGEOUS"
		While the participants in the dark but often charmingly hilarious "Drop Dead Gorgeous" are teens and no longer tykes, the aim of the film is to scathe the entire pageant industry and for the most part it wonderfully succeeds.
		From the amusing opening with Adam "Batman" West to the Mary Tyler Moore-ish appropriate ending, this fl comedy influenced "mockumentary" is even funnier since it focuses on a small Minnesotan pageant instead of a better-known national one.
		The film's casting is inspired and most of the performers are quite good and/or dead on for what's asked of them.

		From Little Women to ER to Gorgeous, Dunst is becoming a real actor.

		This is not to say that Drop Dead Gorgeous isn’t sporadically funny.
		The lethal competitiveness the fake documentary crew uncovers in the God-fearing, apple-pie town of Mount Rose, Minn., shows just how much is at stake for the 17-year-olds who seek the crown of Miss Teen Princess America.
		Smile’s ambivalence about tradition, competition and gender roles is replaced with blatant hypocrisy and unabashed ambition in Drop Dead Gorgeous, suggesting that feminism has shifted from the utopia of universal sisterhood to every woman for herself.

		Drop Dead Gorgeous is actually a mockumentary: supposedly, a documentary film crew is sent to film the events surrounding a beauty pageant in the fictitious town of Mount Rose, Minnesota.
		While we may not always be proud at what we are laughing at (an anorexic former pageant winner who just kept dieting after she won?), there's no denying that Drop Dead Gorgeous is witty and clever.
		Denise Richards gives a wonderful performance as the snotty Becky Leeman; while I'd have to say that her performance was the most outstanding, I also liked most of the others.
