Movie Info
High schooler Angus (Charlie Talbert), a jumbo-sized lad, seems underappreciated in all aspects of his life: he is a standout offensive lineman on the football team, but golden-boy quarterback Rick (James Van der Beek) gets all the accolades for his blood, sweat, and pass-blocking; he is also an outstanding student, but his classmates still regard him as a dork; the girl of his dreams (Arian Richards), Rick's girlfriend, seems to ignore him. Only when Angus musters the courage to put on a maroon

Angus Trailer & Photos
All Critics (20) | Top Critics (10) | Fresh (4) | Rotten (6)
For a movie that extols the virtues of being different, Angus is a frustratingly ordinary story of a high-school underdog: a chow hound in puppy love.
Top Criticquite heartwarming
A plodding, teen cookie-cutter "nerds are people too" story. Hamfisted and dull.
Family-Friendly and uplifting story for any underdog
