All I know is that Brendan Fraser is fat and it's a drama.

Maybe I want to also discuss the movie and you can't do that with Google, smart guy.

Mild spoilers below:

Drama about a man who is extremely overweight (and dying because of it) trying to make things right with his daughter who he abandoned when she was young to pursue a gay relationship.

It's pretty good albeit it a tad schmaltzy. Has some real good acting and did manage to tug at my short heart strings. Recommend it.

It takes place over five days, and its about this guy who had done a pretty shitty thing in his past but pretty much knows hes circling the drain because his heart is about to explode trying to spend with a little time he has left with his daughter who is a tremendous piece of shit. This guy might be the kindest person in the world, but despite wanting to have an honest connection with his daughter and even offering her something pretty generous to spend time with him, she still insults and belittles him, deservedly so. But he just wants to make peace with her and know she will be OK after hes gone

Oh now I see why Hollywood was in love with it.

It doesn't do anything extraordinary, but the acting is on point that it's what ultimately carries the movie. It's definately Oscar bait'ish type of movie but I still reccomend to watch. Some characters act like assholes, but at least you can understand why they do.

So what is the whale in the movie title referring to, his size?

"Average Joe" is a trolling term since it's completely an opinion. "Overachieving" is also an opinion. - SBAllen (Hellhole: 52458377)

Not sure what that means. It also got very mixed reviews other than for the acting.

the movie itself wasn't amazing but it was good i reckon. Brendan Fraser definitely carried it!

also shout out to miss Hong Chau! Liz was definitely my second favorite character next to Charlie!

Sadie Sink had a pretty good performance as his daughter Ellie even tho she was psycho af at times like i said. lol

some scenes were pretty clich tho.

like the one where he reveals his face to his students and is all like "none of this shit matters" and throws his laptop away breaking it in the process. or even the ending itself.

but i still enjoyed them i guess... lol
