Synopsis
Run Fatboy Run (2007) is a British romantic comedy with Simon Pegg that you can watch online on iFILM. It marked the directing debut of David Schwimmer, Ross from Friends.
Five years ago, Dennis Doyle bolted from his own wedding, leaving his pregnant fiancée Libby at the altar. He now drifts through life as a security guard at a lingerie shop, still hung up on her. The problem is Whit (Hank Azaria), Libby's slick, athletic new American boyfriend, who happens to be running the London Marathon. So Dennis, a man who only quits smoking when he runs out of cigarettes, signs up for the same 42 kilometres to prove he can finish something for once.
Pegg co-wrote the script with Michael Ian Black, and Dylan Moran and Stephen Merchant turn up alongside him. The comedy is shaggy and very English, funny enough to earn the lump in your throat it lands at the finish line. This isn't a sports drama so much as a sweet story about a grown man who finally stops running away. Stream Run Fatboy Run (2007) online on iFILM.
