Dumplin' is a beautiful illustration of what good parenting can do for fat children.

...there's so much willful, joyful uplift in the final scenes, it's hard not to buy into every aphorism re-upped from the classic Dolly playbook.

Dumplin' will mean a lot to a lot of young women who struggle to see themselves in TV and movies, and this feel-good comedy reminds them that they're beautiful just the way they are...

Fat bodies aren’t something to have a take on or to surround with an edginess to justify centering them. Dumplin’ gets that and it’s refreshing.

It’s felt like forever since we were last blessed with a big Jennifer Aniston-fronted movie...

Very much a ho-hum movie when there's nothing else to watch on a rainy Saturday afternoon. Predictable and full of clichÃ (C)s.

This movie is packed with emotion, comedy, and beautiful glitz. Pair that with some award worthy performances, some classic dolly, and some really solid writing, and you've got yourself a hit!

A lovely movie - definitely worth the watch. It had me laughing, singing, dancing and reaching for the tissues. It has the - and not to sound rude - unexpected hot guy liking the 'outcast' (Willowdean). I will be watching this until I can recite the script.

I watched this movie because of Jennifer Aniston. I wasn't sure of how it was going to turn out, but it turned out amazing. Such a feel good movie and it'll always remain a favorite.
