Hutch (Chris Redd) is an irresponsible slacker who is obsessed with workouts and women. It's 4 years after leaving college and he's still unemployed. His mother (Vivica A. Fox) has had enough and kicks him out of her house. His friends are unwilling to take in the loser. Big Mike (Mel Rodriguez) gives him a job as a counsellor at a failing health camp for kids and institutes a $5k competition for the counsellor whose kids lose the most pounds. Charlie and Abby are fellow counsellors. There is an annoying jerk in Hutch without the joy of a fun clown. There is a potential for dark comedy but this is strictly trying to be traditional feel-good underdog comedy. It doesn't really work. Then Hutch does an 180 in the middle which only suggests that he's the wrong character at the beginning. If he could be someone else... If it could be a different character... I don't know how to fix this. Hutch needs to be an obsessive gym rat. The opening section should be him at the gym failing to be a trainer. No. No. Forget that. He should be Bill Murray in Meatballs. Alright, Chris Redd can't be Bill Murray. I don't know how to fix this.

Oh this film is so funny I'm pinching some of the mothers lines in the beginning of the film for my eldest lad Honestly really enjoyed it Started watching grey lady 😦😦 after 20 mins deleted (utter rubbish) and thought I'll try this film - just what I (and my 15 yr old) needed Can't wait for my youngest too watch it hell love it lol Just a good fun laugh out loud film

Started slow but warned up to a silly heartwarming movie. Yes it was lewd, cheesy at times and predictable but myself and the others watching laughed often and enjoyed the message it promoted. For sure directed to an older teen crowd. A nice relaxing and enjoyable movie in my opinion!

This is pretty much like all other camp movies from the past. the cast is real genuine and you can see they're having fun. it has some elaborate jokes and odd characters that hold it together. it's predictable yet very entertaining.
