Michael Patrick Jann directs Kirsten Dunst, Ellen Barkin and Brittany Murphy in this mockumentary following a beauty contest where foul play is afoot.

And… Amy Adams. Allison Janney. Kirstie Alley. A fantastic female dominated cast and some good jokes. The wet paint dance routine gag is a corker. Does become a bit repetitive and then sinfully goes on for too long. Yet the sight of Dunst gleefully dancing (which happens often and at length) sure felt like CINEMA to me.
