Big Fat Liar

Big Fat Liar, the hit teen movie from 2002, is experiencing a brief surge in popularity with a premiere on the Nickelodeon channel. The movie was advertised on the Nickelodeon channel as a creation of the iCarly creator, drawing in fans of Miranda Cosgrove’s show. He was also the creator of Zoey 101, The Amanda Show, and Drake & Josh. Big Fat Liar has hysterical antics and stars Frankie Muniz, Amanda Bynes, and Paul Giamatti.

Teen trickster Jason Shepherd, played by Frankie Muniz, writes a last minute essay to escape summer school. On the way to deliver it, he is run over by Paul Giamatti (literally), who steals his essay (entitled “Big Fat Liar”) and begins making it into a film. Jason and his best friend Kaylee (Amanda Bynes) run away to Los Angeles when their parents are out of town to track down Giamatti and reclaim the essay.

I cannot reveal what happens next…you’ll have to tune in to see! I was excited to see the movie pop up again, as this was a classic movie from my childhood. Clearly old movies premiering on TV spark internet flurries, taking over Google trending topics with an interest in "where the stars are now." Check out imdb.com for information on the stars. When Big Fat Liar originally came out my family watched it too many times to count. Watch it with your friends or your kids for some hilarious slapstick and enjoyable comedy.
