Phat Girlz

Pros: comedic scenes
Cons: poor characterization, mediocre plot, long and drawn-out in some parts, not very substantive or introspective

Real-life commedianne Mo'Nique stars in this strangely autobiographical featured called "Phat Girlz." Pop cultural spelling aside, it is the story of Jasmin Biltmore (Mo'Nique), a full-figured aspiring fashion designer who has dreams of making it ...

Pros: Love yourself and others will do the same.
Cons: It's not a movie for young big girls, too much sexual content for children.

Monique has the lead role in her new movie Phat Girls. She is a comedian and that's what she is. The movie was funny because that's what she does make jokes. If you want to rent this movie and have a few laughs then it's the movie for you. I'll say it's worth $4.00 to rent but I shouldn't have paid $8.50 to see it in the show. The acting was totally B rated. During the funny scenes she had it down packed but once there was any seriousness to the script she totally bombed.

Monique, I love you and you are so funny but drama is not your thing.

Pros: Showed both happy and sad sides of being a large person. you pursue them persistently
Cons: As with many movies today the sexual content is inappropriate for younger audiences.

A great movie for overweight women. It pictured the abuses endored by big girls growing up and the challenges they face in a picture perfect world of thin women.

Monques' self confidence in her size can empower Phat Girlz to love who they are and not the body they are in and to realize their dreams of greatness can be achieved.
