Far from the gut-busting brilliance of Pegg's other, self-made starring vehicles.

The picture manages to juggle both the silly and the sentimental without falling flat.

Satisfyingly entertaining.
September 24, 2008
The film, like its flabby aspiring marathon runner protagonist, feels shapeless and exhausted from the sheer effort of trying to please audiences.

One thing Schwimmer does do right is keep the story moving swiftly. You're in, you're out, no harm done -- unless you want that hour and a half back.

About as funny as Ross on "Friends." David Schwimmer (Ross on "Friends") directs.

This feeble premise limits the movie to perfunctory gags about the hero's sloth and some canned underdog drama.
March 28, 2008
Amiable, consistently amusing and surprisingly affecting, it has the flavor of a Nick Hornby novel, with its focus on an overgrown boy struggling to grow up and be a man.

Run, Fat Boy, Run is the directorial debut of actor David Schwimmer, who is much better behind the camera than in front of it. Here, he's taken material best suited to sketch comedy and turned it into a feature of no small heart and humour.

Sure it's predictable. Sure it's a slight effort, but I still think it's pretty funny and charming.

Schwimmer's sliced cheese mediocrity gets him off the hook; not so for the usually inventive Pegg and Black and their arms race of bland jokes and cheap male nudity
