An out of shape security guard decides to run in a marathon to prove to a number of people, including his ex-girlfriend, her boyfriend, his son, etc. that he has changed and can finish something he started. It's pretty funny when he's in training and the race itself is exciting. This movie works because the characters are likable and relatable. Kind of a feel good movie.

If you?ve ever suffered through Marathon and have a sense of humor about it, this is the movie for you (especially, if you like English slapstick). Simon Pegg is very much his standard character; and Hank Azaria makes an excellent lovably-hateable bad guy. I'd sum up the movie as "The Full Monty" about a marathon, geared towards an under 50 crowd.

There's not much to say about this one, being a sort of comedy/romatic-comedy. Can't really talk about FX, or action, but it had a lot of great moments in it. Very funny, and worth seeing. You'll probably even like it as much as your girlfriend for this type of movie...

I got to see a sneak preview of this movie, and I must say it was great! The cast was wonderful, and the laughs were extremley entertaining. I loved the scene with the blister. That was amazingly hilarious. I know that Nick Frost and Edgar Wright had nothing to do with this, but I couldn't have done better. Once this is a wide release, you must see it! Run Fatboy Run is a marvelous film and is also inspiring as well as funny. Simon Pegg is a genius!

It was more of a romantic comedy than I expected, but even my husband found it funny. Much tamer than the other two Pegg movies, okay for older kids even. Hot Fuzz was awful, but this movie was funny and heartwarming. The kid is adorable! Good date movie that both of you can get something out of. Not as hilarious as Shaun of the Dead, but still worth seeing.
