just watch it!

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Watched this as part of a quest to watch the IMDb bottom 100. It's hard to believe that there are 27 worse movies because this is without a doubt the worst movie I have ever had the misfortune of suffering through. It starts abysmally and completely fails to redeem itself throughout it's excruciating length. It's difficult to imagine why an actor like Anthony Head would want to associate himself with this turkey. Even on paper it can't have looked at all good. With vomit-making sexual references and toilet humor that could easily have been written by a 10-year-old this is definitely worth skipping. If you see the DVD in a shop, not only should you not watch it, you should burn it....in a volcano where possible.=SPOILER ALERT= Interestingly, I think Jerry O'Connell is probably the only actor to have his penis bitten off in two different movies.

By Far the best Movie I have ever seen in my life. Yes - I agree that you may think its hard to believe that a film about a pair of slugs could be as riveting as a Big Brother Eviction night and yet, this film pulls it off magnificently. When would you ever see a pair of slugs crawling through a rain poured desolate life and to tell a tale above all without prejudice/salt or humour. I think that this film portrayed Slugs in a a very dignified manner and that slugs should be more respected in society. They should not just be stepped on, but given full potential to live a useful life and be given the same longevity as the rest of us as well as be given the same opportunities as us - humans.I think the lead in the move played particularly well and portrayed a fat Slug very well - Charactericatly played by with subtle movement and a bit of wobbling.Looking forward to the Sequel "Fat Slugs sleeping in Seattle".

OK this movie ain't bad, I mean it was an OK laugh.It just lacks any real plot, it's bland, and the humour doesn't really make up for the whole film being about two, fat, loud mouthed northerners.I was just really shocked it wasn't better, mainly because there are LOADS of top notch British actors in it. The character 'San' was in 'Smack the Pony' that was really popular, James Dreyfus, was in 'Gimme gimme gimme' another popular show. Ralf Little, also in another popular show, 'The Royale Family'. Not to mention Anthony Head and Naomi Campbell. The film makers even got Eamonn Homes on there, along with the guy that used to do 'Have I Got News For You', Angus Deayton. And many more...Why am I mentioning these names that most readers don't bat an eyelid to? It's because they're decent British actors/actresses/whatever, and they are in this s*** film. Whoever made this film had a lot of cash, to bag all those actors/actresses to star in it. Now all of them wish they hadn't starred in it, I bet they all deny they are in it, it's that bad.But hey, what the hell can you expect? It's called 'FAT SLAGS' and its based of a comic. If there's 'nowt' else on, watch it, its a cheap laugh. Just don't expect a HILARIOUS film, with a plot.

This is about as low as the British Film Industry can get. I could have told those involved that this was a bad idea even before conception - and well before a script materialised. Surely someone, somewhere, throughout the entire shoot must have realized that this movie would turn out to be unfunny and a complete waste of time. I am simply at a loss for words. It amazes and, indeed, infuriates me that the British film industry is in the dolldrums and utter rubbish such as this still manages to fart itself out and splatter all over the big screen. For crimes against celluloid, Fat Slags deserves a life sentence - at the bottom of the smallest shelf in the smallest video store in Hell. And it can consider itself damn lucky, too.
