Summary: You are a BIG FAT LIAR!
Review: BIG FAT LIAR looks like a great family comedy! Frankie Muniz stars as a kid in junior high school who makes a film and then a big Hollywood producer buys the film and turns it into a hit movie. But then, the producer doesn't credit Muniz's character in the finished product and gives himself all the credit! To prove that the producer is a "big fat liar", the kid and his fellow classmate/friend (Amanda Bynes) hit Hollywood to confront him about it...and they'll do whatever it takes!

I've seen the trailer for this movie a bunch of times and it looks cool. It is rated 'PG' (for mild-language and general audiences), but that doesn't mean that it's only for kids! Mainly, though, I have to say that I want to see this movie because Frankie Muniz is in it. He's a wonderful, talented young actor and if you don't believe me then just watch Fox's hit Emmy-winning comedy, "Malcolm In The Middle"! Frankie has been nominated twice for Best Actor at the Emmy Awards and Golden Globe Awards! Amanda Bynes is also a talented actress, and I enjoy watching her show, "The Amanda Show", on Nickelodeon.

BIG FAT LIAR looks like the best family comedy of 2002. So when it opens Feburary 18th, then this is definitely a movie you've gotta see!

Summary: Don't Underestimate this Movie!
Review: Okay, I'll admit that before I watched this movie, I thought it was going to be completely stupid and idiotic. Then I watched it and I thought hey this is pretty okay! Most people (especially adults) see a preview for a movie like this and they just say 'ugh, more stupid movies.' But despite the reputations of the main characters, this is pretty good. It's hilarious, don't get me wrong, but this movie really shows the determination of a teenage boy trying to follow his dreams.

Review: What can I say? I'm not much of a Muniz fan at all.
Besides this film, I'd say his other great film would be My Dog Skip. Skip the rest.

This movie was absolutely hilarious. It was non stop laughs after they set it up. The perfect combination of actors young and old I was very Impressd. For a comedy this is at the top. I could get into the principle the message and a few other things that makes this movie great but I'd rather stick to it being just fun entertainment.

Summary: Big Fat Liar is Big Fat Fun!
Review: This is (right now) my favorite comedy and it's so good! The plot is unique and interesting, and my two favorite actor and actresses, Frankie Muniz (Agent Cody Banks) and Amanda Bynes (What a Girl Wants) are in it!
The Plot: Jason (Muniz) is a boy who lies a lot. After lying his way out from getting into trouble for not writing an English essay and getting found out, his teacher gives him a change to write his English essay again and pass it out at 6 that evening. If not, he will have to go to summer school.
Jason finishes the paper (which is titled Big Fat Liar) and on the way to school, he accidentally hits into a car. In the car is a famous Hollywood producer, Marty Wolf (Paul Giamatti). Jason gets a ride but then he forgets his paper inside the car. Jason's English teacher thinks he's lying and he has to go to summer school.
Meanwhile, Marty Wolf uses Jason's story's plot for his new movie. Jason sees a preview of it and gets angry. With his best friend Kaylee (Bynes), he goes to Hollywood and plays a couple of pranks on Wolf that make him give back the paper. This is the best part in the movie. ^_^
I'm not saying what happens at the end, but anyway, this movie is really good and funny. A very good family film.

Summary: Don't Underestimate this Movie!
Review: Frankie Muniz does an excellent job making himself look like a kid who has told "one too many" lies, and now suffers "cry wolf" syndrome.

After Jason Shepherd notices a Hollywood director (he had an accident with) has stolen his English paper and turned it into a successful movie script, he (played by Muniz) sets out on a hilarious adventure to get credit for his work. The best part about the movie is I truly believe something like this has probably happened before...only the person with the stolen screenplay probably did not have the brain power of Muniz and Bynes!

The movie is good clean fun for the whole family. Amanda Bynes knows how to play to the camera, as does just about everyone involved with this movie. Paul Giamatti's "Hungry Like The Wolf Dance" as a blue-colored moron was one of the funniest scenes in a PG movie in a while.

Buy it, watch it, laugh...

P.S. If you go to the video store and it is a choice between Big Fat Liar or Lost In Translation, trust me - go with Big Fat Liar.

Summary: This Movie is all right
Review: Frankie Muniz stars as Jason Shepherd, an eighth grader who simply can't ever tell the truth. The opening scene of the film finds him getting to school late (after lying to his parents two or three times) working his way into the classroom through the window (with the help of friend Amanda Bynes) and then lying to his teacher about the reason he does not have his assignment. He spent all night at the hospital with his ailing father. Daddy couldn't figure out how to chew a meatball. He even has the teacher call a phone number to confirm it and lies his way through that as well. (The phone number was his cell phone)

Naturally, the teacher meets his parents later that day and gives him one chance to re do the paper. He does it, is on the way to deliver it, and hits the limo of movie producer Marty Wolf (Paul Giamatti). Wolf ends up with the story, makes a movie about it, and Jason now can't convince his parents that he wrote the story.

This movie works primarily because Muniz is charming on the screen. It's essentially adults against kids, with Giamatti really taking a beating. He spends a large amount of the film dyed blue from head to toe because of some pranks the two teens pull on him. He has made some enemies of some adults as well, stepping on them while he has gotten to the top. When they find out the kids are after him, they all want a piece.

I also liked Amanda Bynes. This is the first thing I have seen her in and she does a great job. She sticks by Jason and helps him whenever things look bleak. Watch also for a cameo by Jaleel White, the former star "Urkel". He's grown up and plays off his earlier success nicely.

This movie will mostly appeal to the teen generation. It's silly fun, but harmless as well. With the number of movies targeted at teens these days that are so sexually charged, this one is just good clean fun. I recommend it.
