In this case it's Frankie Muniz from TV's Malcolm in the Middle, playing a Michigan eighth-grader whose penchant for lying results in parental scorn when he claims that a Hollywood movie mogul (ace character actor Paul Giamatti) has stolen the kid's hastily written English essay and turned it into his upcoming summer blockbuster. The kid only wants to prove his honesty and recruits his girlfriend (spunky TV star Amanda Bynes) to beat the honcho on his Hollywood turf. Elaborate practical jokes and slapstick gags turn this kid stuff (scripted and produced by two former child stars) into an enjoyable send-up of Hollywood absurdity. When combined with Giamatti's mastery of slow-burning megalomania, the show-biz in-jokes and Home Alone-style anarchy make this a harmless diversion for the young and young-at-heart. --Jeff ShannonNewest Review: ... year old jason shepard's class paper and turns it into a blockbuster, jason and his best friends fly to los angeles to ensure ... more ... that the truth gets known and its pay back time!

My Opinion.
This film is brilliant and do not be turned off that it is aimed at kids because i could not stop laughing right the way through this film. If you haven't seen the Malcolm In the Middle star in this, then you have not seen him at his funniest. His plan to get the director who stole his story to tell the truth to his dad, maybe, i agree be a bit chilidish but you don't really remember this while watching his plans being hatched to actually get to ...more |

Saw this at the cinema - and it's even better than I remember - no word of a lie ... Jason Shepherd is an average 14-year-old with one slight difference: he just can?t help lying!

Jason feverishly writes a story called Big Fat Liar, but while racing to hand in the story, his bike slams into the limousine of Hollywood producer Marty Wolf. The story literally falls into Wolf?s lap, who decides to steal it and turn it into his latest ...
