This film essentially revolves around a pizzeria in Australia which employs a strange assortment of characters. For starters, the owner is a man named "Bobo Gigliotti" (John Boxer) who is temperamental and was raised by a very domineering mother. Having never had sex he is looking forward to the day that his mail-order bride from China, "Lin Chow Bang" (Tuyen Le) arrives. Working with him are several pizza delivery employees with one particular one named "Pauly Falzoni" (Paul French) featured most prominently. So when Bobo hires a brand new pizza delivery man by the name of "Davo Dinkum" (Jabba) it's up to Pauly to give him the ground rules. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was a different kind of film which had a strange Three Stooges resemblance but it suffered from too much vulgarity and the lack of any meaningful plot. Admittedly, there were several very humorous scenes here and there but because of the faults mentioned previously I have rated this film accordingly. Slightly below average.

There's a plot of sorts about a guy who works at a pizza shop holding a ring for his boss who bought a mail-order bride or something. The plot is just an excuse to string some skits together. Some hilarious, some funny, some awful (the Ronald McDonalds, the baby),. Offending pretty much everyone along the way. VERY un-P.C. which is a good thing. This is based on a TV show I guess (I don't know, I'm not an Aussie, I've never even been in prison). Sure it's juvenile, sophomoric, and obsessed with ass humor, but I'd rather with this than any Ali G. However,it could also have been cut by a good 10 or so minutes and would have been better

My Grade: C+

Maybe I am just too old. Maybe it's because I am not an Aussie, and I did not get all the subtleties of this film. Anyway, I did not like it.

Seeing 'Fat Pizza' was to me kind of like trying to listen to rap / hip-hop music. I am 50+, I belong to the rock generation, I love all kind of music and pretend to be a liberal, but rappers still are beyond my taste. I have nothing against, I respect the right of other people to listen and like them, they are just too far away from my universe and taste for me to enjoy their work. I cannot follow all their texts, I do not like their music (ar lack of music),they are too fast, I do not share their feelings.

Same with 'Fat Pizza'. The film is apparently inspired by a TV series. What I did like was that it's different from your usual TV comedy stuff. The film does not try to be politically correct, which is really spoiling many American comedies today. The rhythm is crazy, and this is the main problem in my opinion. It is so crazy and fast that you do not have time to follow the jokes. There is not too much connection between the gags either, no line of action or humor, and the result is unfortunately no better than in a less than average sitcom.

That's too bad. The watching experience is different but the result is not better than bad comedy, scarcely extracting a smile now and then.

But after all, it may be just me. Perhaps after seeing a few more rap comedies like this I will get to understanding better and even enjoying the genre. Same as with rap music. The question is whether they will get me watching or listening to them.

4 out of 10 on my personal scale.
