Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Ignore the reviewer who mentioned "Jackass" in his review. This is not a bunch of idiots daring each other to do stupid things, it's a family movie. Paul Wight plays Walter, a 7 foot tall orphan who has never left the orphanage, also a gentle giant who wouldn't hurt a fly. The orphanages kitchen burns down, and in order to save the orphanage, they have to raise money in a week to replace the kitchen. So a trainer discovers Walter, and takes him on a road trip to train him to be a fighter and attempt to win a martial arts contest to get the money.
Sure, the plot sounds pretty thin, but as does most light-hearted family comedies of this type. You will see the typical love interest, fart gags and corny jokes that go into the making of these kinds of films. It's a decent movie, better then you might expect, but just do not expect it to be a Steve Austin action movie or a Glen Jacobs (Kane) horror movie it is far from either. Take note when you see the PG-13 rating, and not M or R, so do not expect "JACKASS" to appear and start clubbing each other in the nads to win over some mindless teenagers idea of what funny is. And do not expect Paul Wight to bring out a Show Stoppa either... however, he does bring out the Show Ploppa!

Shortly after Eddie (Mark Feuerstein) loses his new fighter and finds himself $50,000 in debt to longtime nemesis and bookie Memphis Earl (Dennis Farina), he discovers Walter (Big Show), a bumbling 7-foot, 440-pound, life-long resident of the orphanage-turned-handyman with his own debt problems: The kitchen fire Walter caused will close down the church's orphanage in a week unless he comes up with $50,000. Upon overhearing Walter's predicament, Eddie convinces the no-nonsense head nun, Sister Francesca that Walter can win the $100,000 grand prize at the tournament to pay off the church's debts. But in order to do so, he will need to take Walter on the road, enter amateur fights along the way, and teach him how to become a real fighter. Sister Francesca dispatches Mary (Melora Hardin) as a chaperone for both Walter and the money and gives Eddie a week and a prayer to make it happen.
