Movie Review of 'Run Fatboy Run'

Posted by X

Yes I know that this is an older movie but I thought I would do a review for it.

This movie is a must see for all fans of the new British humor, especially those who like comedic actor Simon Pegg (from such movies as Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead). This movie is based on Dennis Doyle (Pegg) who is overweight and has throwen his ex-fiancee Libby (Thandie Newton) away and she has found another man Whit (Hank Azaria). Dennis believes that he has changed as a man but Libby does not. So Dennis promises her that he will finish a Marathon to prove that he has changed. With the help of his friend Gordon (Dylan Moran) can Dennis finish the race?
This is a movie packed with laughs, and is not cheesy like the new comedy movies that are out. I found this movie to be very lighthearted and slightly romantic, I would say a good movie for the older family (Rated PG-13 for some rude and sexual humor, nudity, language and smoking) but all in all quite a good movie.

From me.....a 4 out of 5.
