Director Joel Zwick ("My Big Fat Greek Wedding") helms this redundant and distinctively shabby movie that wasn't even filmed in Philly.May 20, 2008
At the end of this weak comedy is a strange and touching scene in which Bill Cosby and his childhood pals from Philadelphia, now elderly men, gather at the grave of Albert Robertson, the real-life inspiration for Cosby's bighearted Fat Albert.December 27, 2004
The movie feels small and flat.October 18, 2008
I enjoyed Fat Albert - much to my surprise ...December 24, 2010
Cosby cartoon comes to life in tween-centered story.November 17, 2011
A lot like the comedian's best work: amusing, appropriate for kids, and far more spiritually nourishing and less insulting than typical Hollywood fare.February 09, 2006
The Cosby touch (he's co-writer and co-executive producer) is in full effect, schmaltz notwithstanding, as Albert and the gang run through their series of pleasantly diverting escapades.April 29, 2009
A bad movie, but I've seen much worse.January 17, 2006
The original cartoons are better.January 03, 2005
Bad in such a bizarre way, it almost becomes fascinating.March 01, 2007
The movie is bland and boring, relying on lame jokes and a nonsensical story to carry the day.January 05, 2005
The sermonizing on behalf of good clean fun and hard old effort (Cosby co-wrote the script) is as faded as Big Al's sweater after too many days on earth.
