This is the first time in a long time I wanted to tap out of a movie.

A lot like the comedian's best work: amusing, appropriate for kids, and far more spiritually nourishing and less insulting than typical Hollywood fare.

Cosby cartoon comes to life in tween-centered story.

A bad movie, but I've seen much worse.

1498083521000FULL REVIEWDaily RadarCole SmitheyRotten

Director Joel Zwick ("My Big Fat Greek Wedding") helms this redundant and distinctively shabby movie that wasn't even filmed in Philly.

I enjoyed Fat Albert - much to my surprise ...

1502831385000FULL REVIEWChicago ReaderJ. R. JonesRotten

At the end of this weak comedy is a strange and touching scene in which Bill Cosby and his childhood pals from Philadelphia, now elderly men, gather at the grave of Albert Robertson, the real-life inspiration for Cosby's bighearted Fat Albert.

1762280045000FULL REVIEWFilm Journal InternationalEthan AlterRotten

The movie is bland and boring, relying on lame jokes and a nonsensical story to carry the day.

1762280046000FULL REVIEWTime OutFresh

The Cosby touch (he's co-writer and co-executive producer) is in full effect, schmaltz notwithstanding, as Albert and the gang run through their series of pleasantly diverting escapades.

The original cartoons are better.
