Fat Camp is a comedy movie released in 2017 directed by Jennifer Arnold. The movie tells the story of a group of teenagers who are sent to a weight loss camp for a summer. The movie features an ensemble cast led by Saturday Night Live's Chris Redd alongside Anabelle Acosta and Michael Cienfuegos, among others. The movie follows the story of Hutch (Chris Redd), a fun-loving and overweight teenager who is forced to attend a weight loss camp by his mother. Initially reluctant to go, he soon realizes that this could be an opportunity for him to lose weight and gain some confidence. However, on arriving, he discovers that things are not as he expected. Instead of a strict and regimented diet and exercise program, the camp follows a more relaxed approach, much to the disappointment of Hutch and the other teens.

The camp is run by a group of eccentric counselors who are more interested in partying and having fun than in helping the teens lose weight. These counselors include Anabelle Acosta's character, who is initially uninterested in her job and spends most of the time partying with her colleagues. However, she soon forms a bond with Hutch and tries to help him lose weight by providing him with some much-needed support.

As the summer progresses, Hutch starts to lose weight and gains some confidence in himself. He also becomes friends with a girl called Maddy (Vivica A. Fox), who is the only other overweight teen at the camp. They bond over their shared experiences and quickly become inseparable. However, their friendship is threatened when Maddy begins to lose weight more quickly than Hutch, and their dynamic changes.

The movie is a coming-of-age story that explores the challenges of weight loss and the pressures of growing up. It is a fun and light-hearted movie that delivers a positive message about self-acceptance and the importance of believing in yourself. While some of the humor is a little crude at times, overall, the movie is an enjoyable watch that should appeal to teenagers and young adults.

Chris Redd delivers a solid performance as the lead character, Hutch. He brings a lot of humor and heart to the role, making Hutch a likable and relatable character. Anabelle Acosta is also excellent as the reluctant counselor who learns to care about her job and the teens she is working with. The rest of the cast is equally strong, with Michael Cienfuegos, Vivica A. Fox, and others delivering solid performances.

Overall, Fat Camp is a fun and entertaining movie that is well worth watching. It is not a groundbreaking movie, and some of the themes and jokes are a little familiar, but it is still an enjoyable and uplifting story that will leave you feeling good by the end. The movie is a reminder that it is not just about losing weight, but about learning to love yourself, and that is a message that never gets old.

Fat Camp is a 2017 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 27 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.7.
