- This movie is one of my all time favorites. Gerry Garner is a overweight boy and his parents sent him to a summer camp to lose weight. At first he didn't want to go but then he started to have a great time...when the camp owners announced to the camp that they are no longer the owners of Camp Hope it became a disaster. A man named Tony Perkis took over the camp and made it dreadful. Everyone in the camp besides Tony Perkis and his team try to drive him out...
- Hilarious, never ending laughter
- this movie is about an 11 year old boy who is sent to fat camp
