Heavyweights(1995)
They don't run the fastest. They don't jump the highest. But they sure are getting the last laugh.
Synopsis
Camp Hope is a summer retreat for overweight boys run by a kindly couple who make the campers feel comfortable with their extra pounds. But when tyrannical fitness guru Tony buys the camp, he puts the kids on a cruel regimen that goes too far. Sick of the endless weeks of "all work and no play," the kids stage a coup and reclaim their summer of fun.
Directed by Steven Brill
