If I had played a drinking game and taken a shot every time Fat Albert said "Hey hey hey!", I would have had 42 shots and enjoyed the film much more.

As it was, counting out loud and yelling at the crap code was the only form of entertainment found here.

For the search engine: Phat Albert

This movie was trying so hard to be another Brady Bunch Movie, but it failed miserably. There is not one funny moment in it, and Fat Albert literally does say "hey, hey, hey" 42 times during the movie (Adam and I counted).

However it is still a thousand times better than the new reigning champion of this year, Spanglish. 1/2 out of 5 stars

BTW, an interesting choice to make this movie in "scope", being that Fat Albert is just to fat for flat. [Razz]

"Too fat for flat" What a great promo line! [thumbsup]

Too bad only film geeks would get it.

On a day when we did over 12000 people, one of our fat albert prints sat on a platter unused. The other didn't come anywhere close to selling out.

I think our customers rated this one for me. [bs]

I thought this one was cute. It had a sweet storyline to it and at least tried to be heartfelt. It was a quick way to waste 1:45 and didn't suck very badly.

It was average. 2.5/5
