Review of Phat Girlz

I did not enjoy the story line it seemed a bit unrealistic. But, it did give fluffy girls a chance to dream. To me this movie was a black Murriel's Wedding. I know a few people may not enjoy this movie mostly because it does focus on how cruel America and most of society is to heavy people. It briefly acknowledges the phat males (white)and how skinny or "fit" people address them as well. There are some moments that are touching and some that Monique really should have seen the makeup dept on before shooting a close up but, she was trying to show her own vulnerability i think. Anyway, I give this movie an overall 6 because it is worth renting and watching. My favorite part of the movie is when Monique tells the imaginary skinny her that she hates her and she does not exist and never will.
