The Big Fat Stone

I've heard so much about this movie and finally got to see it. I have watched it on Bell TV, with my wife and we both have enjoyed this movie very much. We enjoyed the plot, the intensity of the scenes and of the characters, we laughed at some of the scenes and my wife cried at others (women…)

The only problem I see is that I couldn't tell exactly what genre this movie is…It is written as a drama but has some characters of a mob film, and yet, this is definitely not classic mob film. Although I sort of like that fact… I find it as confusing. After all, I wanted to watch that movie from the first place, but if I was looking for a classic drama I would definitely disappointed.

Big Fat Stone is well-written and beautifully shot. When one considers how this movie was made and for what it was made, I am all the more impressed. The acting is well-done, even down to the bit characters. I was particularly impressed with Frank D'Angelo since that was the first time I saw him as an actor.

I liked the movie Big Fat Stone, but I think the plot was too emotional. In some of the scenes it felt like telenovela. I know that this is a drama, and therefore it has too bee too emotional, but I think it was way too much. Other than that, I enjoyed the movie and I recommend you to watch it if you have the chance.

Hi all, This is my first review ever, and please accept my apology but I'm not familiar with the industry jargon… I watched the movie Big Fat Stone after reading some of the reviews here, and I did not know what to expect due to the mixed opinions. Luckily Big Fat Stone did not disappoint me. As mentioned before, I am not an expert in writing reviews… so I'll just write my honest opinion about this movie: The plot is nice, the movie is well shot, the music is fantastic. I also liked the chemistry of the entire cast. Having said that, I felt that some of the actors played a bit over dramatic and not natural. Yet, I enjoyed it due to the beautiful script that made me laugh and cry at the same time. Overall I enjoyed watching this movie, and I recommend you to watch it.

So I watched Big Fat Stone two days ago, and I have decided to rate it as 8. I really appreciated the cinematography throughout this movie and enjoyed the chemistry between the characters. I also liked the script and enjoyed the two plots that seemed to be parallel and only at the end you could see the connection, but I didn't like the ending. It was very disappointing. I expected for something different and sort of disappointed from the ending. But I guess this is only me as I can see that most of the reviewers loved the ending…

Anyway, to sum up - This is a nice movie, with great actors, beautiful story, good music and you probably going to like it too. Personally I didn't like the ending but as mentioned before, that's only my opinion.

I just finished watching Big fat stone after reading some of the reviews here. Like many of you, I also didn't know what to expect due to the mixed opinions… and like many of you I liked that movie BUT at the same time I can't rate it more than a 6…

Why? Let's start with the good things - The cinematography was good. The acting is superb and even minor roles are detailed and convincing.

However, I found the plot as a bit of a mess. You don't really understand what is the connections between the two stories and it seems like a lot of information is missing.

Other than that the movie was good, but script is a big component in my opinion...
