Fat Chance

Loved this movie. The only reason why I didn't give it 10 stars because at times it was frustrating to watch. In the movie, Allison, is so amazing, and it was just frustrating watching her struggle with her self esteem. I just wanted to shout, believe in yourself girl!! However, this movie is relatable, as that we all focus on our flaws and not how incredible God has made us to be.

Sarah LeJeune stars in this Christian film as an overweight young girl who works as a dental hygienist who's taken a lot of barbs for her weight. She also works at a Christian kids camp run by her church where she's crushing out big time on a hunk played by Judah Duncan who is in her church and is another camp counselor.

Duncan too has some issues he's dealt with. LeJeune gets to know him also from a dating profile on the internet. She has one too, but she uses a friend's picture on her's.

The plot is straight from the Disney Channel series Bunk'd out of Cyrano de Bergerac. I wish we could all get the people we crush out on, it would make life easier.

It's a nice story, but really does one have to be a born again to have some empathy for Ms. LeJeune?

...peeling a banana to demonstrate how life works. Instead I got a lead character walking around with a stuffed pillow in her shirt ala Beyoncé to add some bulk and clumsiness. If you want to watch the Christian version of Mean Girls, this movie's for you. And if you like it and recommend it to life-forms other than photosynthesizing plants, we can't be friends.

Good message. Good movie. I learned something during this enjoyable movie. Consider the possibility that others are looking at the light shining from within you, and not your outward facade.

Movie was honestly not bad and I had the bonus seeing my friend (Judah Duncan) perform!
