Shallow Hal
God Bless America, Land of the free, home of many, many different cultures
and especially foods. This movie is a tribute people who really enjoy eating
and certainly wear it well. This movie deserves at least 3.0 stars because
the acting and the character development were done well. The story line was
average, but Jack, the main character, Played the role quite perfectly. Jack
Black is a talented actor. His character portarays a shallow person, who
only judges
women based upon their looks.
The story opens up when one day Jack gets stuck in an elevator and this
guy he's stuck with hypnotizes him to only see the inner beauty of women.
Jack ends up meeting a girl who is very overweight. Now, I'm not talking
about one of those girls who thinks their overweight. This girl is really
darn big. Fat I might say. The actress underneath the costume and makeup is actually quite thin, so the
Eddie Murphy Nutty Professor getup seems a bit unreal. Jack falls madly,
tremendously, in love with this wonderfully perfect and enormous girl. The
spell has worked though, since he can only see the inner beauty of a female,
and Jack views the girl as some kind of twiggy. The story takes a wild and
of course ironic turn when Jack figures out that the woman he loves is the
daughter of
his boss. Luckily enough, this seems to be performing wonders for Jack in the
workplace. Unfortuately, Jack's best friend doesn't like the situation and he
has a tail. Yes, George from Seinfield has a tail in this movie.
Anyway, Shallow Hal, (Jack Black) becomes unhypnotized due to
George and sees the girl for who she is. That's when the shit hits the
fan. Yeah. Then Jack puts vaseline over his eyes and,well I don't want to
ruin the entire ending for you but...... Anyway, this was a nice movie.
I've seen better flicks and iv'e seen worse, but all and all this was a
decent film. I'd suggest seeing it for a good belly laugh and a taste of
real life without the elevator blackout.
