You had to go and mention Megan Fox?????? EW. She looks like a man to me. I truly cannot see why so many men are fascinated by that vacuous mean-spirited twit who is clearly a tranny. Then again, if you are into transgenders, there are plenty who are more attractive than that mess. hehe

The druggie sister really wasn't that bad though. She appeared to be a little heavier, but since her body was covered most of the movie, she might have been of athletic build proportions.

"It is much smarter to have a cast that look like everyday people when you have a story that is character driven."
But 3 chubs as the leads? Really?

Because they are around the average weight of American women today. As a story teller you want the audience to relate to the characters. Sexy movie stars, though desirable, aren't relatable. Could you identify with Megan Fox in the same way as you could with someone who looked a little bit more like you, or your sister, or your colleague?
It is much smarter to have a cast that look like everyday people when you have a story that is character driven. Just like movies made for the visual impact tend to have flashier looking actors (with a lot of make-up and cgi to boot).

OP needs to stop trolling. And another idiot to add to my ignore list. Why must IMDb be crawling with you UGLY people??
Don't let anyone ever make you feel like you don't deserve what you want.

Where did I perpetuate a myth that thin is healthy? If this was a topic about skinny people where someone had an obvious eating disorder and the characters were extremely thin and underweight, I'd have no issue mentioning this either.
I think most people who associate NORMAL to currently overweight people never watched a movie or tv show, or experienced life before 1980. Back then, the odds of seeing anyone obese was almost unheard of. People knew how to eat, and there wasn't this need to OVER indulge in super sizing everything that is now the UNHEALTHY norm.
Fat kids back in the day were the kids who were 10-15 lbs heavier. Now, people consider someone fat ONLY when they are 80+ pounds or more overweight.
Those who see overweight as the norm have never probably had their body fat percentages taken, nor do they understand the idea of healthy. They do choose to ignore it by blaming those who recognize obesity as a problem, as you and many others have here.
I have zero body dysmorphia issues. As I stated, I've been on all sides of this coin and have also been in the fitness industry for over 20 years. As a child I was extremely thin, I have been fat, I have been in shape, I have been in natural body building shape, I have been obese. In all these transitions, I never lied to myself about my health and my body image.
I can also say that when I was obese and my friends asked me wtf was wrong and why I let myself go, I never felt picked on, I felt like people were concerned instead of yelling at them for being honest with me.
Let me also add then when I have been overweight AND obese, I was LAZY! It wasn't just over eating. And as far as medical EXCUSES, I've heard them all, but only twice in my life have I known two people who had actual medical reasons for not being able to achieve results, and one was an actual thyroid issue, the other was steroidal.
As far as overweight people saying they aren't lazy, I see it all the time. Instead of digging deep, might as well complain about people mentioning something you already knew about yourself.

Wonder if I'm missing a group that would get so angry about such a casual observation about people's weight?
Don't know if you're trolling as well, namaGemo, but what I find fascinating about individuals such as yourself is the myth you keep perpetuating that thin people are always healthy. They're not. There are quite a few health conscious people who don't like to see/hear body shaming either, which is what this is. Not everybody in the world is a size 2 - 6 and they shouldn't have to be. There are many types that make up this world and when I watch a movie, I want to see attractive/regular people in it. If I wanted to see a supermodel type, I'd watch a runway/catwalk fashion show. That's not what this is. What is pissing people off is the fact that people who are not insanely thin are in this movie and yet the OP is calling them chubby. Do you think they are? Because if you do, you're either a jerk, a troll or suffer from some form of body dysmorphia. I do not support body shaming/bullying of any kind and it's appalling that idiots like the OP do!
This reminds me of when the first Paranormal Activity movie came out and scores of trolls came crawling out of the woodwork, calling the lead actress fat, when she wasn't. Is our society that messed up that we can't tell what a healthy weight is anymore?
People may talk about how obese Western society is but I have not seen any so called obese people in movies, unless the role called for it specifically. Have you?
Don't let anyone ever make you feel like you don't deserve what you want.

Interesting how people react to comments about weight. One can make a casual observation about the cast being slightly heavier than normal, and then, for some reason, some people get upset over this.
Let's see, are those people who are upset thin? No, probably not. Uh, I got it, they are gym rats with low body fat and great muscle tone? Ah, no, that's not it either. They are healthy people who eat right, exercise, but nothing ridiculous, they pay attention and are height/weight appropriate? Damn, that doesn't sound right either.
Wonder if I'm missing a group that would get so angry about such a casual observation about people's weight?

They were. The pregnant chick was enormous (the fat, not the baby), the sister had hamhocks for cankles, and the unshaven cop looks lieke he lives on mom's couch.

"Yeah, a bunch of no-talent skinny blow up dolls like that blonde in the last Transformers is where it's at, Mr. Bay."
No. Not that. There IS middle ground, after all.

@MongoLloyd
Pregnant women are naturally big BECAUSE they're pregnant. What a stupid comment. And every woman in the world can't be a damn skeletal-with-skin-damn-near-hanging-off-their-bones-size -our, so get over yourself. I also can't believe all this valuable space of 12 threads was wasted to respond to a silly, stupid immature troll OP whining about actresses who aren't a size 4 in a damn movie. Although, I'm glad some of y'all told him/her off, because I've seen him/her post elsewhere on these boards,and he/she's just an immature little fool who's also an ignorant racist. Apparently there are others on here who don't seem to realize that women aren't these creatures made only for them to put down and complain about just because they don't fit that stupid bull**** beauty ideal. That's clearly because we're so inudated with these bull**** unrealistic ideals of what women look like in Hollywoodthat it's hard to adjust to women in films who don't fit that unrealistic Hollywood beauty standards (which, let's face it, are achieved by plastic surgery half the damn time therewhich make some of them look even worse,not better-looking,to be frank.) It's also these bull**** fake-a** beauty standards
Also, another thingso what if some of you don't like fat people? Who gives a fck? Fat people have enough of their own problems to deal withit's none of damn business what the hell they do with their bodies. Unless you're their friends or relatives, nobody gives a fck what you think about them. Everybody in real life dosen't look like some damn supermodelhalf the damn time most of the magazine covers you see with models on them have been photoshopped to death, which means the models on the covers don't even look like that in real lifego figure.
anyway, which means they don't even look like their real selves.

the sister, Callie, is actually perfectly healthy. that is how normal, everyday women are shaped, some have more chest and less hips but overall that's what we look like after about 22 or so. Callie had a pear shape. in her running scenes, she wasn't sweating buckets or panting like a dog! she was quite fit.
it's sad that the media portray a "normal" woman as being a size 4 or smaller. in any country, sizes 8 to 14 are the normal range.
also, the lead actress was really 7 months pregnant and looked fantastic! again, pear-shaped rather than an hourglass, but that's in the normal range. we all spread out in the hips when we're pregnant, it helps to protect the baby if we should fall. totally normal.

don't blink

I'm amazed that you found the sister who wasn't pregnant to be overweight. She wasn't model-skinny, but she wasn't even what I would call thick.

You are a Mpingoron. Younger sister was pretty, a bit overweight but wtf.. with you? Look outside a window or better - go redtube yourself.

It makes me insane when people pretend there are two extremes and no sane middle ground.
No one said they should look like Ken and Barbie. Are you being intentionally dense? They could have been halfway passable humans.
"Den Gleichen Gleiches, den Ungleichen Ungleiches."

Weird that anyone would get annoyed when the cast of a film is not up to their standards of attractiveness and this supposedly lessens the quality of the film. Why should that be? I put it forward that it's much harder to become emotionally invested in a film, especially one where you're supposed to feel for the plight of the characters, when they all have 'perfect' hair, 'perfect' bodies and a 'perfect' house etc. Right then and there you're establishing a foundation of unreality, compromising the film's ability to make an impact on the average viewer.

that for this one time, you couldn't compensate your total lack of sexual contact with females by jerking off to actresses in low budget horror movies.

Yeah you prejudiced intollerant fk. Look at your user ID. You thing it's creative and funny as hell to use a bastardized version of mongoloid? Are you making fun of kids born with Downs Syndrome? WTF man. Take a look at yourself in the mirror buddy.
Another PC imbecile.

The actress who played the sister Callie was in no way "fat." The actress who was pregnant, you could say maybe the actress was a bit chubby but she also had a set of knockers on her, so I am not sure if it was that she was chubby or just preggers.
The actress who played Callie obviously had fat arms. When she's out for a run, you clearly see the oval shape of her chubby body, since she has no waist. She is overweight. Get it? Not height-weight proportionate.
As far as the pregnant one having "a set of knockers," let me first ignore how disturbing it is that you get turned on by a preggo. Ugh. But, more to the point, you obviously haven't seen many knockers, otherwise you'd know those breasts were just two useless sacks of flabby flesh with no shape. A sexy, healthy female's breasts are firm and round.
You got some living to do, kid. Then you'll know what quality is, once you stop fapping it to National Geographic and your mom's Victoria's Secret catalogs.

Are you on crack? The actress who played the sister Callie was in no way "fat." The actress who was pregnant, you could say maybe the actress was a bit chubby but she also had a set of knockers on her, so I am not sure if it was that she was chubby or just preggers. That is a fetish? Are you warped?
The detective was the only one who could truly be listed as chubby and I thought he was cute. He reminded me of Wil Sasso. I will take Wil Sasso or this actor any day over 10 Brad Pitts or over guys who look emaciated.
You need some help; again, go eat a frickin sandwich.
