Norbit
29It will not make you better.Not an average of critics. Eight questions, one house.
The joke is a body. Under it, a man is trying to protect a place for children. The joke wins, and it is mean.
The glance
Industry, Household, Piety, Courage, Republic, Temperance, Truth, Stewardship are the thin ones.

After the credits
Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?
Take controlThis scores 29. If you do not want Norbit in the house, the steps are on Prime Video. Block it
There is a plot in which a quiet man tries to keep an orphanage out of the hands of crooks, and a woman he loved as a boy comes home. A house could have used that plot. The film that got made wants you to laugh at a fat woman being violent and at the man too afraid to leave. Thirteen is old enough to learn the laugh and young enough to still be learning it.
Skip. If friends have already quoted it, say that the quote is the problem.

The eight
Industry
4/10
An orphanage is the stake. The film keeps forgetting.
Household
3/10
A marriage played as a prison. A sweetheart from childhood.
Piety
2/10
Nothing revered except the fat suit.
Courage
4/10
He does, eventually, stand up. The standing up is late and silly.
Republic
3/10
A town of caricatures.
Temperance
2/10
Cruelty about a body, sex jokes, the laugh as a shove.
Truth
3/10
A con is exposed. The exposition is not the pleasure.
Stewardship
2/10
Do not hand a child this picture of a wife.
