Fatliners

About This Movie

Fatliners is one of those offbeat comedies that just exists in its own strange universe. You've got heel wrestlers — yeah, those bad guys in the ring — who somehow end up time traveling, which is just the start of the weirdness. The tone is irreverent, a bit chaotic, and the pacing feels like it's in a rush to keep up with its own absurdity. Practical effects are a mixed bag; some moments are hilariously low-budget yet charming. The performances from the cast lean heavily into the ridiculousness, making it quite a spectacle. It's distinctive for its oddball premise and how it plays with the tropes of both wrestling and time travel in such a nonsensical way.
