SYNOPSIS
Starring Mo'Nique as Jazmin Biltmore,
a smart-mouthed aspiring fashion designer, "Phat Girlz" is an edgy comedy about two
frustrated plus-size women obsessed with their weight while struggling
to find love and acceptance in a world full of "hot bodied" babes.
The Phat Girlz are thrown a major curve ball when they meet the men
of their dreams who come from a culture where big is better...
You
will find lurking under the surface a rather touching and heartwarming
film. It takes an interesting look at the pain that trying
to meet the expectations of our contemporary society can inflict
on a person. It questions the criteria we use to examine ourselves
and from where we should draw our self-worth. — Review
