Film reviews: Fatso (2009), Nothing Like the Holidays (2008)

Fatso (2009)
Comedy. Norwegian comedy about a lonely fatman, who lives alone in an apartment and all day surf porn sites, fap, drinks and draws comic books about himself. One day he takes up residence at the time a young girl, and fatman set to finally go to bed with his mistress. Sorry, but the movie sucks. A vulgar, unfunny, with a silly plot and unimportant game actors. Maybe Norwegians humor of this movie will be better understood, but I do not recommend it to anyone. 2 out of 5.

Nothing Like the Holidays (2008)
Comedy. Melodrama. Drama. At Christmas the house of his parents come to their adult children and their wives from all over the country together to meet the holiday and see each other. But on arrival the children learn that their mother wants to divorce his father, after living together for 36 years. This news quarrel relatives and divides them into two camps, supporters of the mother, and supporters of the pope. But everything changes when they learn the terrible news about his father. Sad movie. Comedy is very small. So that the word "comedy" I would put at the very end. This is, firstly, the drama. In general, the film unremarkable and nothing outstanding. In it there is no good and original plot, no good game actors. On one view, who loves drama. 3 out of 5.
