For Your Consideration- C+

This may be the biggest let down of the year for me. “Waiting for Guffman” and “Best in Show” are tow of my all-time favorite movies. (Both made by Christopher Guest and Company) I was slightly let down after seeing “A Mighty Wind”. (also made by Guest) I think my expectations were too high. I went hoping that “For Your Consideration” would be on my top ten-list of all-time favorite movies. This is expecting a lot. But when you combine Christopher Guest, Parker Posey, Catherine O’Hara, etc. who make a mockumentary about The Oscars, how can I not be excited! The majority of the movie was just not funny. It has its moments (Catherine O’Hara particularly) but the amount of times I laughed out loud were minimal. As of yet, the creators haven’t announced their next project, I just hope it’s not downhill from here.
