Heavyweights

This is the best movie ever. I have watched it 1192 times. Ben Stiller's performance is excellent and the kids, although amateur, provide many, many, many laughs. This is a great movie to sit back and watch when you feel like using no brain power. The comedy is completely mindless and hilarious. Watching a group of obese children being "torchered" by a diet-obsessed ex-heavyweight is a great premise for a movie. it has all the elements of a good movie: you laugh, you celebrate, and maybe, (if you're extremely sensitive) cry. I don't know how you can't absolutely love this movie. My praises for this movie know almost no bounds. This is just a great movie. Well, I'm going to go achieve 1193!

What's not to love about this movie. It's a classic 90's shenanigan comedy with the tubbies from The Mighty Ducks. They work so well together as a cast and their chemistry really shows. Although the movie's funny it doesn't start to get really good until about halfway through. It's rude, crude and childish with a carefree spirit...so moronic but you can't take it too seriously.

I do agree that it's a poor example of glutinous behaviour but even a child can tell that this is a gross over exaggeration and nobody commends this sort of diet and laziness. In saying that it's funny and not necessary about food. It's about losers becoming winners and the clinically insane getting what they deserve. And who doesn't like to watch that.

This is one of the funniest movies I've seen. And fat people will not be offended, I have friends that have really been to "fat camp" and they were laughing harder than I was, and I really don't see what's so gross about it. This is a great film go out and rent it. 9.5 out of 10.

Most fun I've had with a movie in a long time. A film doesn't need to be a masterpiece to be enjoyable

Heavyweights is one of those movies that most people either love it or hate it. But for me it's a terrific comedy from my childhood that still holds up today.

From the 1990's comes a film about a bunch of kids who go to fat camp. The camp gets a new owner who's eccentric ways begin to make life difficult for the campers, who then take matters into their own hands.

It's a fun movie for the whole family, and filled with plenty of laughs for kids and adults alike. The characters were wonderfully cast with good young actors, and Ben Stiller does an amazing job as the main villain of the film. I would recommend this movie to any comedy fan.
