Too crudely executed to make much of an impact.

3/4

Big-hearted and often quite funny if crudely made, Fat Girls cleverly subverts the clichs of high school comedies to serve an autobiographical story.

A seductive deadpan comedy in the style of the uber-nerdy Napoleon Dynamite, by Paris, Texas wunderkind Ash Christian, still in his teens, Fat Girls will leave you smiling.

Amateurish to distraction, this modern-day satire about growing up gay in a small town has such a minimal pulse that you may well wonder if first-time writer/director/actor Ash Parish didn't burn his script before shooting began.

I wasn't bored with "Fat Girls" and it was pretty good for a low budget film.

Cobbled-together amateur effort, though not without a smidgen of charm. Granted, that charm lies more in the moments of transgressive John Waters-esque comedy than in the sentimental coming of age story.

I couldn't make it through the entire movie. It wasn't what I was expecting. Just blah.

I don't know how to feel about this flick, it's a fun mix between a serious story with teenage issues, and making fun of everything. I did like it, but it didn't really give me that yeaaahh feeling, it was just blah.

This movie has some laugh out loud scenes and is about a high school senior who comes to terms with not just being gay, but accepting and liking himself.
