My Big Love tells the story of an obese man's struggle to get back into shape in order to bring back his estranged girlfriend. In the process he falls for his trainer and the latter develops feelings for him too.

The movie is a total train wreck, just by the movie concept alone. What is this, Million Dollar Baby plus Nothing Hill? Honestly, they have the nerve to actually say this is an original screenplay. This is nothing but a movie with a copycat concept.

Acting was poor. Poor is still a meiosis. Toni Gonzaga did have some improvement after her stupid performance in You Got Me, but it still looks like she's just blurting out lines. Sam Milby here acts like Toni's fat gay friend who's giggly all over her like he just spotted some cute guy instead of acting as the guy. Kristine Hermosa is definitely the better actress here.

Makeup is also poor. I know they want to make Sam Milby look fat, but honestly, it doesn't convince me. The prosthetics were used wrongly and instead of making him look fat he looked more like the white robot from a Japanese TV series. You know, the one made of circles and takes the form of the villains.

The movie is just so stupid. Honestly, I would have appreciated if Krstine Hermosa's character here was the ultimate b-character but no, she lets Sam go and hook up with Toni. So stupid.

The movie may have been a good movie to some, but pardon my mouth. Those who find this beautiful have extremely bad taste. Acting is poor, the story's just like Million Dollar Baby and Nothing Hill combined, and the prosthetics are wrongly applied. Yet, they have the nerve to call this movie the blockbuster of the year? Movies like this mark the climax of the decay of Filipino cinema. Luckily independent films come to save the day.

Final say? It's stupid, corny, and boring. Over hyping is the only thing that keeps this movie alive. Movies like this should be burned and shoved down the throats of bad-tasted fans who find this worthwhile.
