Heavyweights

A few days ago I noticed this movie came out on blu-ray and bought it without a second though. It's been years since I've watched it, but growing up I probably quoted this film more than any other, and I'm looking forward to watching it this weekend. I also never knew Paul Feig, creator of Freaks and Geeks, plays the camp counselor Tim, aka Chicken Legs.

Any opinions on this effort from Judd Apatow and Steven Brill?

I remember watching this so many times as a kid... "You broke my camera!" many laughs, it was always on TV on the holidays, unfortunately I dont think they even have it on DVD or Blu Ray here in Australia cause I would love to purchase it. It still holds up with the laughs to this day. To me I see this on the same level as Major Payne as I can still watch both and have a laugh.

So I watched it, and it certainly doesn't hold up to my fond childhood memories. Nevertheless, it's a well-made and charming movie, with plenty of memorable dialogue. My favorite scene is the "food orgy" which makes clever nods to Apocalypse Now.
