reachingtokyo I don't know why I left this movie on until the end. Where do I start. The Main characters just get high and drink and giggle and mack on chicks the whole time- so to start with there is no plot to speak of. There is no story, no special moments, no script. The father seems rather homosexual and the mother too young to be his mother and they both just seem like 2 of his friends- bad casting. Its supposed to be about some place in New Orleans? Ho did the movie show that in any way except for stating several times the 18 year old drinking age. Its really not worth reviewing so this is more like a warning don't waste your eye sight.
gbutch21 I have never been more baffled than I was when I realized I sat through this whole film. I mean how did this get made, let alone get on Netflix?! It is like a kid that dropped out of his first year at community college got his rich parents to fund a movie for him and his friends. I am half a semester through a script writing class and I could write literally a thousand times better than this. Nothing happens in this movie, no plot at all, and everything that does happen could happen now days. The director must be a hypnotist, there is no other explanation for how I sat through this. Please anyone explain to me how this film was made, maybe I am missing something.
pinningtonm Boy did I have a good time watching this movie. Fat City seems like the perfect place to be during the 70's. As a movie buff I definitely have high standards when it comes to any movie about the past, since it has to seems real and accurate. Director Stephen Mouton did a great job at making a film that was not just fun, but I felt like I was there living it. I wasn't there living it up like these characters did during the 1970's because I wasn't born yet, but man I really wish I had. They all seemed to be doing it right. The acting was well done, and there were some very important scenes where you can tell the acting had to be good or it wouldn't have worked. I give this a 9 out of 10.
whtnthwrld55 Live in and know Fat City. This is the worst movie I have seen in years. Makes the old Porky's seem like an Oscar winner. I just keep realizing that I will never be able to get my time back. The acting is very staged and not at all professional. The film work makes my father's old super-eight filming look like Eastwood directed it. The script should have been left as a book report for the 10th grader that wrote it. Those that funded this very bad movie will not have to worry about the awards. It will make a nice tax right-off for someone. It is very difficult to even find a redeeming thing to say about this film. Wait, some of the shots of the French Quarter in the opening were very nice. I bet it was stock footage that was used because it does not seem to match the rest of the mess. So sad, the movie just destroys the city. Go to New Orleans and Fat City on your own and don't watch this really bad film.
