O Peso de Um Sonho

Most studio films aren't nearly as good as this gem. I was so inspired and blown away by the cast, especially relative newcomer Tim Realbuto who is giving an award winning performance in a very difficult role, and Vivica A. Fox who has never been better! What a treat! Everyone must see this one. I was lucky enough to rent it on VUDU and I'm going to buy it now so I can enjoy it again and again. It was so nice to see Coolio, Mindy Sterling and even Taryn Manning who was excellent. Do not miss this touching masterpiece. It truly is nice to see films like this being made during the strike. It's such a treat to see truly great indie filmmaking. Bravo to the entire cast, and director Rob Margolies for making something so special and memorable.

Bobcat Moretti includes relevant social commentaries within its stories with great acting and excellent background music with each important scenes. The directors, producers, writers and actors should be proud of what they accomplished.

I loved it so much I seen it so many times. It is so well written, Directed and performed. Each character is so layered! I enjoyed the journey of learning about them. I was inspired and blown away by Tim Realbuto's performance!!! The Direction of Rob Margolies is wonderful. I really am a fan of his story telling. So relatable with so much real life touch. Absolutely recommend this film.

Wow - this move is bad. I was excited to watch it with all the great ratings and reviews. What a fool I was. I'm only writing this review because I'm so angry it has such high ratings and I feel a duty to try and change that. This movie is truly awful. The characters are one dimensional cliches - central character with an incurable disease and deep family trauma - check, struggling single mother with smart and beautiful daughter - check, bully ex- boyfriend of said single mother - check, elderly coach with drinking problem - check, tough, but wise and caring gym owner who takes central character under her wing ( oh and she's a recovering addict too of course) - check. The script and plot were unimaginative, wooden and utterly predictable. If you told me ChatGPT had written it I would not be surprised. Even the music was poorly chosen and never seemed to match the tone of the scenes. I'm sure a bunch of people will watch this because of the great reviews, but if you do and you hate it, don't say I didn't warn you!!!!

Great story about an obese man down on his luck and getting unluckier; he just found out he has multiple sclerosis. He quit his job and moves in with his brother, but life continues to go downhill. Until he walks into a gym that trains boxers. Mesmerized with the lifestyle, he gets a job there, in return for the gym owner to train him. Magically things start to get better, as Bobby starts to lose weight and gets healthier.

Tim Realbuto is phenomenal and inspirational as Bobby "Bobcat" Moretti. He actually loses over 100 pounds for the part, and the transformation is amazing. He is the underdog at the beginning of the movie and then becomes the hero. His character is extremely likable, and you want to root for him to win because he's such a hard worker and doesn't believe in giving up.

The film also stars Vivica Fox, who is powerful as the gym owner who helps Bobby in his transformation. The chemistry between the two is beautifully authentic and they become friends, and the gym becomes his home. Vivica is strong, but has empathy for Bobby and is able to push him, knowing she can help him. She owns this part!

Excellent directing by Rob Margolies, the story brings you in and keeps you riveted until the last scene. This is a feel good movie that people will want to watch again and again. The story shows that even when the chips are down, there is a way up, no matter what life throws at you. Very inspiring.

In [Movie/Show Name], Bobcat Moretti's exceptional acting elevates the entire viewing experience. His talent shines brightly, making him a standout in the entertainment industry. It's safe to say that Moretti's contribution is a significant highlight of this production.
