Well, George is living the Mr average life. A steady job, with a pretty if plain looking wife and the ubiquitous 2.5 children. He is slightly overweight as we all are, and the sex after kids is... well there if a little predictable. So, what better way to spice something up in the bedroom than make an impossible bet. Essentially lose 50lbs in 3 months and you can have "butt" sex. It turns out to be a drawn out blog that we all ride along with him to see if he can lose the weight and claim his star, (no pun intended). What it tries to do is approach a quite taboo subject and try and normalise it. This film is classed as independent and for the most part it does have that feel. I won't spoil the end but laugh out comedy it isn't, more of a smirk here and there. It's not a bad film, but at the same time it's not a film you will rush back to see.
I watched this with my wife and we both describe this movie as a mashup of a 90s sex comedy with a family dramedy TV series.
In fact, the scenes dealing with marriage and career resonated with us even more than the sex humor and innuendo (though a lot of that is fun too) so take the marketing with a grain of salt. Overall it's an entertaining watch if you understand that this is a movie for grown-ups with life experience masked behind a dirty premise.

The movie is incredibly funny and has a ton of heart. You'll think back to those feel-good comedies that we all grew up with but don't see anymore. Give it a try-- you won't be disappointed.
What would a family comedy sex film look like? Well, it would look like this film. Nothing graphic, lots of innuendo, and a lot of heart and a main storyline that I think a lot of us can relate to - putting off personal dreams for family responsibility. It's very low budget but that gives it a lot of its charm - it's a film that practices what it preaches - butt sex jokes aside... If you like your humor heartfelt but a little crude, then you will enjoy this film.
Awesome movie with a surprising and warm, family theme, running throughout. The movie has three perspectives being presented; the husband and wife, the wife and her friends; and the husband and his friends.
There's a lot of subtle (and not so subtle) humor that's everywhere during the movie. Pay close attention to the intro and credits. The little IT jokes, the 'passing addresses' mom's group at the school and Paulie's speech are hilarious. The whole movie was laugh out loud funny.
The movie is Unrated, but it's really more PG-13 than R (but lots of F bombs). Despite the adult theme, there's no sex or nudity.
It was only $6 ... buy the movie!

- WissenswertesPer the plot of the film, the main character (Frank Tsigas) must lose 50 pounds in 3 months to win a bet with his wife. As the lead actor playing Frank, George A. Tramountanas (in addition to writing, directing, and producing the movie) actually lost 50 pounds over the three months they shot the film. This also necessitated that the production shoot all of the Frank scenes in chronological order over the 12 weekends that they filmed.
- PatzerThe woman who said "I thought her phone was on vibrate" was not present when Laura told the other woman that her phone was on vibrate, so she could not know that the phone was supposed to be on vibrate. The wrong woman was speaking.
