Title: Pretentious junk!
Review: "Fat Girl" is a nasty, boring, brutish movie by a director who clearly has nothing to offer other than shock. I've wasted time on two of her films now, and this will be the last.How novel: A European prize-winner has a repulsively violent ending, coming out of nowhere but laughably and clumsily foreshadowed throughout the rest of the movie. Who woulda thunk?It doesn't make a director deep simply if she makes cheap, obvious nihilism. Of course there are those "sophisticates" who think any hint of ambiguity in an ending is evidence of brilliance. Guess I'm not that soigne.And the spectacle of the obese young girl (who's seen clutching a stuffed animal in the making-of film) having to bare her [...] for a leering camera is one of the most distasteful things I've ever seen.
