A one-joke film. I expected a fair deal from 'Heavyweights', especially after seeing Ben Stiller was involved. Unfortunately, it never takes off after the initial joke becomes tiresome; the characters are fat, that's basically it. It needed more meat on the bones (pardon the pun), too mediocre. Stiller isn't great either, in a part which is basically a watered down version of the role he'd play nine years year, White Goodman, in 'Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story' - he, surely, used this character, Tony, as inspiration for White? Elsewhere, you have two of the funnier kids from 'The Mighty Ducks' series, as well as a few fairly known faces like Jeffrey Tambor (Maury) and Tim Blake Nelson (Roger). I get the intentions, but the heartfelt message that (I think) the film aims for doesn't really come out clearly. The ending feels like an unconnected add-on that was put in to add to the run time. In truth, it isn't anything terrible - I just wanted and expected more.
