Run, Fatboy, Run Review

IMPORTANT : When i say American / Hollywood, what i mean by that is that the movie bows out to hollywood cliches. Now it came off a little wrong, really the important word is HOLLYWOODIZED. A british film can be crap and not be hollywoodized Or it can get hollywoodized and be crap. Same for american made movies all can be affected by the hollywood system. or with run fatboy run, the original script just could of been cliched.

ok i can c why u don't like it, but think its well funny. it may not be as good as any of edgar writes stuff. but its a good flim. and even if u don't find it funny, u've got 2 admit its quite moving.

i respect that some will like it but as i say it just wasn't for me. I guess some moments could be moving but i couldn't care for pegg's character. I mean this guy ran out on his pregnant wife and we're meant to

1. care about him

2. [***SPOILER WATNING*** ]

....i didn't buy the reasdons at the (swearing at the kid is bad of course, but the tripping thing, and c'mon pegg walked out on her!) end would change Thandie Newton's characters perception of him in a positive way.

im not criticizing you. All I'm going to say is that it sounds like you only like movies that follow a certain formula that appeals to you.

[AndyJmovies]

isn't that the case with everyone? People like what they like is all i can say. You're right in that i guess i have my favourite types (quirky, dark comedy) but i'm all for trying any type of movie, for instance i love Wes Anderson movies but my all time fave movie is Die Hard, far removed from Anderson's collection of films.

so yes i guess all i can say is that i like what i like but i'm willing at enjoy any movie.

Thx for comment Simpsonsmatrix

[thesimpsonsmatrix]

fair enough. but the question is do you review films that don't appeal to you as much harsher?

[AndyJmovies]

I try not too, but i guess its only natural too do that. But i try to think of redeeming qaulities even if i don't like it (such as the music here on run fat boy run)

[Chianagirl]

You are so wrong this is one of the funniest films in 2007 it is not bad

Simple comment....

AndyJmovies = Faggot

[Crazyguy317]

Shut the fuck up man you sound like you have a cock in your mouth... like Hot Fuzz was any better???? Sean of The Dude definatly is still one of my favorite movies, and Hot Fuzz was pretty much crap... This movie definatly got my respect back for him. Stupid brit.

[MarshallAmpDude313]

first off you have no idea what the hell you are talking about. simon pegg co-wrote the film with michael ian black. simon pegg not only can deliever the laughs, he can prove to be an amazing actor. this film was a great comedy and romance. and it was Chelsea Dagger by The Fratellis. and from the sounds of it, you have no taste in films and you probably like action movies far more than movies that people are able to connect with the characters.

...and that comment was meant for AndyJmovies (if that wasn't obvious), i don't know why it went on top of those other comments.

also just to clarify, i meant stupid as in it's ridiculous/kind of amusing that some people get so dramatic and bent out of shape on the internet. i could understand if you said something really offensive or something, but it wasn't. :P

[cptnsubtext]

i agree... i did find some things funny, like the fight scene between dylan moran/simon pegg's characters, and the puss scene was kinda funny (& gross), but it was very predictable and hollywood, and seemed obvious that it was written by an american (which isn't inherently bad, just saying the format and jokes and things were really obvious).

i think it's kind of stupid that you have to defend your review though, it's just an opinion & it's not like you said anything offensive.

[mcrsavedmylife111]

i can c ur point, but i guess i just wanted peggs chracter 2 get her bak cos that hank guy was such a bastard
