After his insufferable attempts at aping Woody Allen's characteristics in the weak Celebrity, Kenneth Branagh finds a niche for himself in American mainstream cinema with the offbeat comedy, How To Kill Your Neighbour's Dog. A celebrity chef whose audience love him and his barbed quips about the crassness of American culture, Branagh seems to have it - beautiful wife, home, and family. Yet over the course of a few days, his entire world begins to fall apart with devastating results. The resulting film is one that offers both an insight into the perceived notions of perfection and the attitudes that have been installed in us since youth.
