Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
Btexxamar I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.
lea-chele-remy This movie resonates with a woman of a certain age ending a relationship with a certain kind of man. This is such a relatable story. We all want love, but are we good enough? How much weight must we lose or hair removed or added to be worthy of adoration? Because clearly we are lacking something or we wouldn't be here....alone...with a muffin top. How does this happen? Enjoy the journey of well written characters stumbling through the mess that is real life...no photoshop here, not even Vaseline on the camera lens. Welcome to love, loss and laughter in the real world. This movie would go perfect with white wine and French bread or Twinkies...they are so under rated really. You could go for the expected muffin, but really why not make it a cupcake? Why do we not call that bit of extra love around our middles a cupcake? Who would mind that? It is all in how you look at it and skinny jeans are the demon seed that creates muffin tops. Now I am just filling space cause I need ten lines to make this an "official" review. Sorry for the rant at the end...just filling in the holes, which is another way we end up with muffin tops...but that is another movie...
beckyred17 Fantastic film, great cast, excellent screen play!! The title, Muffin Top: A Love Story peeked my curiosity, and did not disappoint. The story is creative, believable and real. You quickly become engaged and involved with the characters. Suzanne, played by Cathryn Michon becomes an instant friend. Someone you want to be friends with, as the character is smart, funny and lovable. I am "in love" with the Dr Scott character, thanks, David Arquette. And, speaking of LOVE this is a true love story - love of self, and love of others. I went with a group of ladies to see the premiere, and came home telling my husband it's a must see Romantic Comedy. Congrats to Cathryn Michon, Mission Accomplished!
laurie_may-649-912552 Finally.....a funny movie that empowers women. A must see!!!! A perfect movie to see with "the girls" , your daughters, and your partner. The moral of the story is that we are so much more than the size of our bodies. Our value is so much greater than the number on the scale. The characters in this movie are very authentic. Every woman can identify with them and learn from them. Tucker steals the show in many scenes. Finally, a movie created by women, for women. The message of this movie is that we need to live life now and to accept and embrace ourselves just the way we are. It is not up to others to determine what we should look like.
mary-152-880243 I bought this on iTunes and loved every minute of it. In the 80s (or was it the 90s) I had Shirley Valentine as my "feel good to be a normal/average woman movie." Now I have Muffin Top. Cathryn Michon did a great job as the director/writer/star. Loved seeing the late, great Marcia Wallace. Dot Marie Jones was hysterical. The talented Marissa Jaret Winokur also rocked. David Arquette and Diedrich Bader played their guy roles perfectly -- Diedrich you are so horrible. I know I've forgotten some others but everyone did a goo -- oh oh Maria Bamford was fun too. I don't like to use the words "chick flick" but let's be honest women will understand it and relate to it more than those beings brimming with testosterone.
