Reviews
The Lexicon of International Films rates the film as:
"Dull comedy full of cliché figures, especially people of color who, as usual in such films, are characterized as stupid, fat and voracious."
Also Cinema.de judges negative and writes: "Dauergag this lame Posse to the rap band" Fat Boys "(Damon Wimbley, Mark Morales and Darren Robinson) is liveweight: together over half a ton. On the other hand, the story is very meager: Fiesling Winslow hires the pummel as caregivers so that they drive his rich ancestral son into a heart attack. "
In Kino.de is optimistic and thinks that this first "feature film of the oversized in every way rappers troupe" Fat Boys "whose plates in this country are selling well [will be] a grotesque fun in the high weight class, with great music and Filled with well-known US TV stars up to the supporting roles. "
The critics at Filmosophie.com rate this movie as slapstick , because "it is obvious that a little more fat coal should be pressed with this film from the success of the Fat Boys. The great advantage is that this capitalist plan was drawn up and implemented in the 1980s. Nowadays such a film would probably be slapped around the ears of the makers. [...] Another point of view is also not recommended, otherwise the fun of this film will be severely reduced. However, there are reasons why The Chaoten Team has now disappeared and is known only to a few people, because the Fat Boys have not survived the time and thus also not this work of fat taste. "
