Dreadfully Boring

I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

The flick Big Fat Liar portrays the struggles of a young slacker protagonist (Frankie Munez) as he attempts to evince the thievery of his school project by a Hollywood bigshot (Paul Giamatti). The Hollywood director acts as if the writings of the young boy are his owns and uses them for his next big blockbuster. The antagonist is basically the typical liberal left wing Hollywood type, if you ask me, always making up elaborate lies to control the media and the entire freaking country under Barack HUSSAIN Obama's rule. The protagonist could be argued as symbolizing the poor, innocent Christian conservatives being deliberately attacked by the liberal agenda.I did enjoy the film immensely, probably on par with great works such as The Godfather or Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel. Although I did love this movie, I will say that really this film could just be called "Kind of a Liar I guess" when compared to the story about I am about to tell you. Paul Giamatti will look like a saint or George Washington (he never told a lie) when put up against the deceiving little devil that is my wife.I married her back in 2009, madly in love. I was taken aback by her from the moment I first laid eyes on her. She was elegant in every way. I mean, when she walked into a room, all heads turned.Although, only recently did I realize that the reason heads were turning was because everyone was trying to get a glimpse of the town transsexual! Yeah, you heard me right. I was duped into marrying a dude!We were together for a year before the marriage, and she never bothered to tell me that she used to have man junk. Not only did she not tell me, but none of my so-called "friends" did either. They just thought it was a real hoot and waited until the day I found out and laughed hysterically at my misfortune.WHY DID SHE HAVE TO LIE TO ME? Now what am I supposed to do? Am I gay? Am I straight? Or am I bisexual since I've been attracted to a woman but also kind of had relations with a man? THERE'S NO GUIDEBOOK TO THIS! If someone had told me as a kid that one day I would marry a woman who used to be a man, I would have told you that you're full of crap. I'm a God-fearing man and I want to go to heaven, not to have carnal relations with this abomination from Lucifer, the demon overlord of hell.Now, I'm in the process of getting a divorce. But how am I supposed to ever trust someone again? We married before the Almighty God, and He knows I married a former man with balls and everything. I am so ashamed of myself. The only way I get through my days is by watching this movie and taking comfort in the fact that it all works out for the kid who is hurt by the antagonist's lies, hoping one day that I will be able to feel the same satisfaction.In conclusion, if you need a movie to distract you from the overcrowding thoughts of your wife's sex change, then I recommend this movie to you.Sincerely, Your fellow IMDb user blakelogsdon1

Very good movie about a boy who got an ESSAY assignment and forgot to turn it in and used excuses to get himself out of it. One day the boy rode a girls bike to school and bumped into a fancy limousine. He gets a lift from a guy named Marty Wolf, who then notices that he forgot his ESSAY. So his teacher threatened to send him to punctuation & writing symbols class at HIS SCHOOL over the summer. So he watched the TV in his parents' bedroom and said that the man on the JEOPARDY! show made his book into a hit on BLURAY AND DVD. So then he left to go to LA (Los Angeles)when his parents went on vacation and got in a plane. They checked into Marty's upstairs lounge, and he distracted the front desk lady and went up the stairwell. Meanwhile, Marty is arguing with a lady who then goes on the boy's side by the end. Marty smoked a cigar and purposefully burned his paperback book. So he fought until security carried him off. So he went into the movie prop room that had props from lots of movies and clothes that the characters wore. The kids dressed up in the clothing and put blue dye in Marty's backyard swimming pool. Marty soon does a backstroke and turns dark blue. Then they reprogrammed his car's fuse box so if he hits the big brake, the horn sounds, and if he hits the window opener button, the radio plays a song. So a monster truck hits and destroys his poor sedan. So meanwhile, the kids come up with a plan. They drive a car in the desert and the driver throws him into a teddy bear cacti and sits in a desert without ANYTHING to drink. So the boy saves the day and his father believes his stories again.

Big fat liar is a pretty funny movie. But as I was watching it, I thought about something. Some of the events that occur in this film are unbelievable. So really, the film is kind of a big fat lie. There is no way that he could've gotten away with all of this. Here are all of the unbelievable stuff.1. When he fakes his father had choked on a meatball, and acts like he is the father. Jason(Frankie Munez) couldn't have gotten away with that. Well, luckily for us, he didn't. So it didn't stick with it, the outrageous.2.Even if the Grandmother was blind, she still could've figured out that that wasn't her granddaughter. 3.They couldn't have gotten on the plane, flown to L.A., acted like they were coat salesmen, sneak into the studio, and then, and then... Well, some of the film is a little unbelievable. But it doesn't hurt to tell a little white lie. Trust me, I do it all the time.Big fat liar, though unbelievable at times, is fun. It's also very funny. But let me just say one thing before I continue this review. If Paul Giamatti wasn't in this movie, it would really suck. It would be horrible. Big fat liar is also pretty funny, though corny at times. I give it a thumbs up.Big fat liar:***/****

After seeing Big Fat Liar, I think Jason learned a lot more. When he told the truth about Marty stealing his story, it was like the boy who cried wolf. People heard him, but they didn't believe him. Nobody did anything to help him. Besides, not only Marty's movies stink, so does his advice. The truth is not overrated. I am so glad he got exposed for what he really is. Everyone found out that he stole from that boy, including his parents. Not only he stole from that boy and lied about it, he gave them someone else's work and tried to call it his own, which is plagiarism. Doesn't he know that it is illegal to plagiarize someone's idea? Another reason why he got fired. He is not trustworthy. He's a liar, a cheat, a thief, a crook, and a plagiarist. You got that Marty? You're a plagiarist. Plus, you got everything that you deserved.
