One of the funniest movies ever made, 'Waiting for Guffman' spoofs everything from documentaries and talent shows to local politics and alien abductions. Full Review
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Jun 10, 2007
Rating: 2/5 -- Where This Is Spinal Tap took rock music and the media as its focus - fat, juicy targets just asking to be lampooned - Guest's target here is small-town provincials.
Variety
May 14, 2004
Rating: 3/4 -- A very funny, very unusual ensemble comedy that falls somewhere between slapdash and brilliant, an improvised comedy with more hits than misses.
Globe and Mail

Rating: 4/5 -- Fab small-town spoof; subtle humor may bore kids. Full Review
Common Sense Media

The comedy has the slow burn of a richly nuanced and non-judgmental character study. Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

A town of Blaine, Missouri is preparing for celebrations of its 150th anniversary. Corky St.Clair, an off-off-off-off-off-Broadway director, is putting together an amateur theater show about the town's history, starring a local dentist, a couple of travel agents, a Dairy Queen waitress, and a car repairman. He invites a Broadway theater critic Mr. Guffman to see the opening night of the show.
