User Review - 10/10 by Jen Pi liked this movie alot..it send a very important message about the meaning of stereo-types.. great film
User Review - 10/10 by Trev BA great film which proves that way too many people are prejudiced towards bigger people. This film has a really good point to make, that people should see others for their inner beauty more, and not what's on the outside. The world would be a much better place if we all did that. Which is why i make a point of getting to know a person on the inside instead of just the outside. A great film which i hope to own on DVD someday.
User Review - 10/10 by Meg GI think everyone should see this movie. It really opens your eyes & makes you realize how horrible can be to someone when there appearance isn't what everyone thinks it should be.
User Review - 10/10 by Gena Danother high school movie relation "High school senior Alyson travels within the popular crowd at school. A star softball player, she is obsessed with keeping fit as her mother and brother have always had weight issues, which she wants to avoid. She shows resentment toward her mother because of weight related medical issues she faced, which Alyson believes were avoidable if her mother really cared about herself. The medical bills have in turn used up her college fund. To get into college, Alyson is relying on getting a softball scholarship. That plan falls apart when she gets injured during the scout's visit. To possibly finance her college education, Alyson instead decides to enter a documentary film-making contest with her friend Jamie, the prize money, if they win, which will be sufficient. Their subject centers around treatment of overweight people. Alyson believes that overweight people use their weight as an excuse not to try, whereas her overweight brother Adam, who she considers one of the sweetest and smartest people she knows, believes that people automatically treat him and other overweight people with disdain regardless. With the help of her prosthetic make-up artist neighbor, Alyson goes undercover as a fat girl attending summer school at a neighboring high school, where no one knows who she is. She believes that people will not treat her any differently since deep down she is still "Alyson", a nice girl. As Alyson proceeds with this project, it becomes much bigger than she ever imagined, as she ultimately sees weight from many more perspectives than just her own. It brings to the surface fears that she has, especially concerning her family history. These fears also include typical teenager self-image issues as a fellow jock named Michael begins to show interest in dating her."
