Big-hearted and often quite funny if crudely made, Fat Girls cleverly subverts the clichs of high school comedies to serve an autobiographical story. Go to Full Review
David Lamble Bay Area Reporter 05/12/2020
A seductive deadpan comedy in the style of the uber-nerdy Napoleon Dynamite, by Paris, Texas wunderkind Ash Christian, still in his teens, Fat Girls will leave you smiling. Go to Full Review

Amateurish to distraction, this modern-day satire about growing up gay in a small town has such a minimal pulse that you may well wonder if first-time writer/director/actor Ash Parish didn't burn his script before shooting began. Go to Full Review

12/02/2015 I wasn't bored with "Fat Girls" and it was pretty good for a low budget film. See more 07/13/2013 Cobbled-together amateur effort, though not without a smidgen of charm. Granted, that charm lies more in the moments of transgressive John Waters-esque comedy than in the sentimental coming of age story. See more 05/29/2011 I couldn't make it through the entire movie. It wasn't what I was expecting. Just blah. See more 11/09/2010 I don't know how to feel about this flick, it's a fun mix between a serious story with teenage issues, and making fun of everything. I did like it, but it didn't really give me that yeaaahh feeling, it was just blah. See more 04/04/2009 Awsomeness put on film! See more 03/08/2009 This movie has some laugh out loud scenes and is about a high school senior who comes to terms with not just being gay, but accepting and liking himself. See more Read all reviews
