Fat Albert (2004): Dir: Joel Zwick / Cast: Kenan Thompson, Kyla Pratt, Dania Ramirez, Bill Cosby, Keith Robinson: "Hey, hey, hey! It's Fat Albert on the big screen." Based upon characters created by Bill Cosby centering on a big guy with a big heart. When refused invitation to a party at school young Kyla Pratt goes home and watches Fat Albert but when a tear hits the remote control the characters suddenly emerge. This concept never works because the transformation from one world to another is taken so lightly. The longer they remain in reality the more their color will fade. Simple formula yet director Joel Zwick asks questions about adapting from one world to another. Zwick previously made the hilarious My Big Fat Greek Wedding, which ignored clichés and exploded with grand humour. Here he goes in the total opposite direction quality wise. With Fat Albert he has a great concept regarding the two worlds but a lousy screenplay to express them. Kenan Thompson embodies the personality of Fat Albert and his buddies look every bit like reality cartoon characters. Pratt's tears on the remote thing just doesn't cut it. She will obviously gain friends and it lacks real feeling. Darnia Ramirez plays the standard flirty sister. Bill Cosby makes a brief appearance. The reality fantasy theme is intriguing but fat chance that it fascinates like Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Score: 4 ½ / 10

I wish i could give it lower than a 1. Because it sucked. This film was yet another risk that should not have been taken. I should have left when i could. if you paid money for this film i'm glad you had an hour and a half to sit on your butt watching a fat guy say hey hey hey 24 freaking 7. So if you enjoy fat annoying guys and stupid a$$ movies that are excuses to pig out on milk duds and buttered popcorn this movie is for YOU!!! I hope to the dear Lord that this was yet another film that the directors were high on. Because, if this was a movie they were serious about then Hollywood has seriously sniffed too much white- out. My favorite part you may ask? Hmmmm.....Getting a restraining order for trying to get my money back.enough said.

For the answer, just watch this. I can't understand how money could have been given to support this script. Maybe Bill Cosby paid for it all. Otherwise, I'm sure the executive who green lit this has been let go. The plot, which I think is the stupidest plot I've seen, involves the Fat Albert gang coming out of the TV into the real world. They are there to help Doris solve her problems, mainly being that she has no friends. And the gang begins to "fade" the longer they stay. The fading consists of wearing lighter shades of clothes, and other characters saying things like "you look like you're losing your color". Plus they can see through their hand and pants. The pants thing was just another unfunny joke.I can't say how unfunny and dumb this was. It wasn't good enough to be one of those bad movies you can't help but find amusing because it's so bad.FINAL VERDICT: The worst film I've ever seen. The story was so dumb and nothing was funny.

I saw this movie on Christmas Day with my aunt and cousin. I have never seen the original "Fat Albert" cartoon, probably because I wasn't alive in the 1970's. I still thought this movie was entertaining. It's a very fun, innocent movie. I say "innocent" because there aren't many scary or inappropriate jokes or objects in it. I don't know why this movie got a PG rating because there isn't anything that would make parents think twice about seeing this movie. It says it got the rating for "momentary language", but I don't recall hearing any inappropriate language in this film. Parents, rent this movie for your kids. It's a harmless, fun, enjoyable movie, and your kids will thank you very much.
