BIG FAT LIAR (Theatrical Release USA 2002)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.1|5.0 Starsìììì

Big Fat Liar—likable Frankie Muniz film—shows as a good children’s story and earns its right for an easy-on-the-mind afternoon watch. The acting is quite good. Thank you to Director Shawn Levy for giving us some laughter and chuckles over how to right a wrong.
