I LOVE this movie. I saw it last week with my friend. How sad that outer beauty is such an issue with MOST men and SOME women. Yep, that right....men are visible beings and women are relational beings. What happen to looking for character and a person who loves Christ?
This is a great movie to watch because you get to see of your own prejudices about dating. We all have preferences. However, do we look in the mirror at ourselves and do we measure up to what we are looking for? As Dr.Henry Cloud, a christian author states in his book, " HOW TO GET A DATE WORTH KEEPING, " while you might be attracted to someone's "outsides," what you will experience over the long haul is their "insides." I could not have said this any better.
SYNOPSIS: This movie, Shallow Hal, is about a shallow man who falls in love with a 300 pound woman because of her "inner beauty". Following the advice of his dying father, Hal dates only women who are physically beautiful. One day, however, he runs into self-help guru Tony Robbins, who hypnotizes him into recognizing only the inner beauty of women. Hal thereafter meets Rosemary, a grossly obese woman whom only he can see as a vision of loveliness. But will their relationship survive when Hal's equally shallow friend undoes the hypnosis?
