Review of Big Fat Liar (2002) by Wesley W — 08 Nov 2014
Too generic and predictable to be good nor too bad to call this a terrible movie. This only comes off as a children's movie that only feels like it took the filmmakers a month for this forgettable material to be made.
The only kind of humor you see on screen is just slapstick and there was never a memorable or laugh out loud moment in the entire movie. Frankie Muniz from Malcolm in the Middle is only ok here, but doesn't bring much to the big screen as an actor.
Amanda Bynes, while good looking, was one of the big problems of the film. She didn't bring anything good to the movie, she was annoying at times, and she really just faded in the background for most of the film.
A good aspect here in my opinion was Paul Giamatti. I thought he made the best out of the not-so-good material he was given and there were some mildly enjoyable moments with him. Besides those things, this is just your average, cliched, and very predictable Hollywood movie where there is no real reason to watch it.
