Run Fat Boy Run stars Simon Pegg in another one of his unlikely hero roles, movies such as Hot Fuzz and Shaun of the Dead. I'm happy to report that Run Fat Boy Run is far better than those two. It tells the story of Dennis, a down on his luck security man for a women's clothing store. 5 years earlier he left his pregnant bride, played by Thandie Newton, at the altar, and he's never stopped regretting it. Now he is trying to get her back while bonding with their young son. She, on the other hand, has found a new boy friend from America, played by Hank Aziria. Wit (Aziria) tries to look better than Dennis by giving the kid gifts and taking him places. Wit also runs marathons and is soon hosting one. Dennis decides to run the marathon to prove to Libby (Newton) that he can change. The movie isn't anything new but the message is sweet. The film of course is predictable that Wit is an **** and Libby can't see it but she's still in love with Dennis. It's the classic love triangle story with some added detail. I would definitely recommend this because even though it won't be on anyone's top 10 lists, it's a truly sweet movie that you'll forget about come next month. And I hope you know that this movie has been out for about a year and is already on DVD in England.

"Really, I thought you were a department store security guard?" Funny lines that make me want to watch it again. Especially running after a 6" tall shoplifting tranny!
