Shallow Hal

“While *Shallow Hal* leans into the Farrelly brothers' signature brand of crude, slapstick humor, it is anchored by a surprisingly earnest performance from Gwyneth Paltrow that gives the film a genuine, albeit uneven, heart. It is a high-concept fable that prioritizes its moral message over nuance, making it a nostalgic pick for viewers who enjoy early 2000s rom-coms that attempt to blend raunchy comedy with a "beauty is on the inside" sentiment.”
