Underrated good film

Comedy comes from tragedy, and this film does it, not funny but comedy. Some people say that it is discrimination against obesity. Obesity is a common problem in the United States. Therefore, there are many fat people in the film, but there are also deformities, disfigurement, and dandruff in the film. Jack Black didn't satirize the normal aesthetics, and may lack a lot of dramatic effects. This is also the precious part of the film, and the ordinary is extraordinary. In the end, there was no reversal of the ugly woman turning into a beautiful woman. Although I had been looking forward to it, I was relieved at the end after watching a lot, and did not fall into conventional wisdom. Those who are not normal in the eyes of the public can also benefit the society and support themselves by their own inventions. And they also understand the pain of not being accepted by the public better, so they all go to volunteer work, and their hearts are really much more beautiful than many people. In the end, Gwyneth was still very beautiful after he was fat, haha.

    Although it's a bit exaggerated, it's still a good and awakening movie, but it's a pity that not many men will watch it and not many will be moved. It is expected that the score will not be high, after all, there are not many normal people now.

    Jack Black was really handsome when he was skinny.

Shallow Hal quotes

  • Rosemary: I saw the way your friend Mauricio looked at me; I thought he was going to shoot me with a tranquilizer gun and tag my ear.

  • [after Mauricio broke Hal's spell]

    Hal: Let me ask you something. Who is the all-time love of your life?

    Mauricio: [ponders] Wonder Woman.

    Hal: Okay... let's say Wonder Woman falls in love with you. And everyone else in the world didn't find her attractive.

    Mauricio: It wouldn't matter. Because I know they'd be wrong.

    Hal: See! That's what I had with Rosemary! I saw a knockout, I don't care what anybody else saw!

    Mauricio: You're right. I guess I really did screw you, huh?
