DVD Review: I want the 90 minutes of my life back. Stunningly bad movie
Summary: 1 Stars

Phat Beach had its potential undermined by poor production values, horrible acting, and a script that seemed t be written by a chimp. The plot of the movie went in more directions than an ADD kid. I couldn't like any of the characters because I never got know any of them. It seemed everyone in this movie had a personality that was as deep as a Dixie cup. I'm still figuring out who is the main character, Benny or Terrell? Why do they want to go to the beach? Supposedly to sell sunglasses, but they never do that. Then there's a volleyball contest, he runs into his parents wins the contest and gets the girl. The End. However, that's the same as the beginning, a really bad rap video that features none of the actors in the film. And I'm still figuring out why the white guy was Terrell's rival and not Benny's.

Don't get me wrong I really like bad movies, the cheesier the better. The cheesily Krafted flicks made by the defunct Cannon Group and the late Samuel Z. Arkoff (American Ninja, Ninja III, Dixie Dynamite, Bleach Blanket Bingo and How to stuff a Wild Bikini) try hard to entertain and overcome their poor production values with a great script, strong effort by the actors and the director. The enthusiasm and energy you feel from everyone in the film makes you overlook the obstacle of a low budget and like the film. However Phat Beach feels so [poorly made] that I felt like I was watching somebody's home videos. The lethargic performances of the actors are so bad that it reminds me of a high school play. It seems no one tried to make this film work. It's a shame too, because this could have been a great film if the production team had a good script and the actors camped it up. All I can say is: Don't buy it. Don't rent it. Don't borrow it from the library. Don't even watch it on TV. You will wish you cleaned the gutters for 90 minutes rather than watch this film.
