      There are so many reasons to give up, but only one persists

      In my opinion, good movies are those that make you feel. When I was very young, I saw this film, and I just thought it was very interesting. Later, as time went by, I just remember that a buddy encountered a wall while running a marathon, and he knocked it away. , keep running.
      I've seen a lot of movies that impress me at the time, but over time there's only one image left, or even just a symbol. In my mind, those well-conceived films are not the best films in my mind, and I always feel...

      There is a reason behind every story

      If you were told that a man ran at sunset at the wedding and that the bride was pregnant with his child, you would think that was a coward. Indeed, having lived half his life, DENNIS is really NEVER FINISH ANYTHING like a coward. But it was precisely because he knew his personality that he chose to give up the woman he had always loved. In his words, "SPOILING YOUR DAY IS BETTER THAN RUINING YOUR LIFE".

      Sometimes people are like this. They are too self-righteous and always feel that...

      Relaxed, inspirational, and a little corny

      I didn't do any homework before watching this play, and I didn't know much about the actor who played the leading role. I was completely fooled by the name of the film to watch it.
      The first thing I feel is that the male protagonist is not as fat as he imagined, and his appearance has not changed much before and after (more or less, he is still looking forward to becoming more beautiful, naive!), not a youth drama, but a middle-aged man living in life Unhappy in a play about getting to...

      very good

      I watched Simon Pegg's
      movie entirely, but it was a complete mess.
      It's strange why Pegg should play a FAT BOY, his body... no matter how you look at it, he doesn't look FAT, and he looks stupid with makeup.

      Dennis' dialogue with his son in the second half of the movie is very touching "A lot of things don't go as expected, and when these things happen, you can't just run away because it doesn't solve the problem. When you run away, the problem is still there. You should try...

      When running is the only way to be happy

      I am a fat man, and pessimism often harass me. After watching this fat man movie, as long as you run, you can run like happiness.
          Is the end really happiness?
         I long for happiness, all happiness!
          So everyone has to run. In today's society, you can only get by running.
          But, my leg, my leg suddenly doesn't listen to me, he needs to rest...rest to run better.
          Let's run together. No matter what his destination is, as long as you don't get lost, look at...

      A well-established comedy, the plot is a bit cliché, but the actors' performances are still in place, the protagonist and supporting roles, and the justice and villain have distinct appearances and personalities. This kind of old-fashioned script, usually casual and happy, is almost the...

      I've seen a lot of Simon Pegg's films, starting with How to Betrayal, then Paul, Land of the Living Dead, Shaun the Zombie, Chronicles of Narnia, and most recently Tiny, and he always uses his British humour to lead People laugh, but this "Fat Boy Run" is serious, and I burst into tears. "You always but but but, you always have excuses, why is it not your fault!" A man who gives up everything for...

    Evaluation action

    "Run, Fat Boy, Run", a movie that "looks beautiful" from the trailer, did not attract enough audiences. The production company did not pay much attention to the film, and not only changed the schedule many times, Moreover, it is also weak in publicity, which is one of the reasons for the poor box office performance after the film was released. The film is also in a state of inadequacy in the critics, and it is more than embarrassing....
