Overwiew :Who's afraid of the big bad Wolf? Not Jason Shepherd. This 14-year-old thinks on his feet and when he has to prove that sleazy Hollywood producer Marty Wolf stole his class paper and is turning it into the blockbuster movie "Big Fat Liar", he is ready for battle. Traveling to Los Angeles from his home in Michigan with his best friend Kaylee, Jason tries to break into show business--literally. The result? Through a series of pranks and ruses, Jason brings one of Hollywood's most powerful producers to his knees. |

TV Guide - Maitland McDonagh : Fresh-faced leads Muniz and Bynes are charmers, Giamatti makes Wolf into a splendidly loathsome adversary, and the film is refreshingly free of bodily function jokes. more...

Los Angeles Times - Jan Stuart : Muniz and Bynes give the impression that they're actually enjoying themselves, which helps a lot. One would love to see what they do with real characters, instead of two more movie kids stricken with a case of terminal vivacity. more...

Dallas Morning News - Nancy Churnin : ... the ever-appealing Mr. Muniz of Malcolm in the Middle and Ms. Bynes of Nickelodeon's The Amanda Show...keep the madcap antics at such an enjoyable fever pitch that you don't care how increasingly improbable the plot is getting. more...
