Fat Slags/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Brain Bleach: And HOW!
  • Dude, Not Funny: Many of the jokes which don't fall flat are simply offensive.
  • In Name Only: There is only one scene where the Slags are in-character, and it's a minute in.
  • Nausea Fuel: Plenty of it.
  • Special Effects Failure: The fat suits are quite obviously just padded body stockings. They don't look too bad when the Slags are fully clothed, but the full-body versions are totally laughable once you get past the Squick.
    • Then there's the rat during the vent scene. The CGI rivals (and possibly even fails against) Video Brinquedo.
  • They Just Didn't Care: By the 20-minute mark, the Slags are not in-character, are no longer factory workers, and are no longer in Northern England. The existence of Baz and Dave was shoehorned into the film last-minute and is irrelevant to the plot. They aren't in character, either.
  • What the Hell, Casting Agency?: Dolph Lundgren, Jerry O'Connell, John Thomson, Angus Deayton, Hugh Dennis, and Anthony Head all appear in this movie... somehow.
