Plot Summary
Superstar comedienne Mo'Nique is hilarious as a sassy, plus-sized fashion designer who's tired of taking no for an answer in this delightful comedy about living life to the fullest. Jazmin Biltmore (Mo'Nique) has big plans for large ladies – she's designed a sexy line of clothes for curvaceous women like herself. But when she can't get funding for her designs or meet a man who appreciates her unique physique, Jazmin's patience starts running thin. That is, until she wins an all-expense-paid trip to a resort in Palms Springs, where she just might just meet the man of her dreams.

Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Barely written and stiffly directed by Nnegest Likké, Phat Girlz is an undernourished comedy about a sassy, overweight heroine.
Rotten: Jazmin's so fat that the movie reduces her to a single discernible characteristic, which is a telltale mark of many a wholly awful comedy.
Rotten: A thin comedy about a size-plus heroine.
Rotten: The first word of the movie's title stands for Pretty Hot and Thick. The second word is never spelled out, but it could mean Good Intentions Ruined by Lousy Zingers.
Customer Reviews
Plenty of laughs; sends off important message
This movie will automatically leave you laughing but that is not all. It leaves an important focus of being happy with who you are, no matter how you look. Being a "big" girl myself, I can laugh but still be proud of who I am. It does make fun of skinny girls but lets be honest, its what the movie is meant to do. The actors perform excellently and the music is wonderful. "African Queen" is my favorite track. Regardless of who you are or what you look like, enjoy and remember this movie.
