Bigger Fatter Liar (2017)

People are voting emotionally.

Absolutely Fantastic

Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

An adaptation of the original that was less effective and far less enjoyable.

This movie is a rip off the movie Big Fat Liar. This is the ugly, spoiled, stupid and badly made little version of the movie Big Fat Liar. They didn't even bother changing names or even lots of the original movie's lines. Oh wait. There is a difference. The cast of Bigger Fatter Liar are all ugly and should NOT be acting. They should probably be radio actors. With all due respect to a lot of good radio actors. But the actors and actresses of Bigger Fatter Liar were not good looking and were way older than they should be. Stinkaroo dudes. Bigger Fatter Liar stinks.

I am big fan of the original, but this is word for word the exact same movie with a stupid app idea. I am furious watching this film and how Universal allowed this to be made. Thank god this was not in theaters and I could watch it off netlflix in the comfort of my home. Dan Schnider is sobbing after watching this, Why did you have to reboot something so iconic and perfect. This is a disgrace to everyone who enjoyed the original!

''Big Fat Liar'' was a fine kids film. sure it was slow & sometime irritating, but it had energy & some appeal & it's hilarious & unexpected to see Paul Giamatti painted blue acting crazy.This film however is another story.The film is basically the same story, except they changed things up a bit for the modern audience...and it f*cking sucks at it.Kevin Shepard (Ricky Garcia) is basically Frankie Muniz from the first movie, who has a difficult relationship with his dad (Paul McGillion).After he gets hit by greedy & idiotic video game Larry Wolf (Barry Bostwick), Larry steals Kevin's idea of a concept for a video game titled Big Fat Liar, so Kevin & his best friend Becca (Jodelle Ferland) to attempt to get back at him for taking his idea.Can you see why this plot can't work.Not only does the plot sound the same, but it fails to be original, leading to a bunch of clichés. Secondly, There are plot holes that will cause people to dismiss this as a sequel. Just like Kindergarten Cop 2, Universal Home Entertainment hired other actors and have the same plot to try to pass it off as a sequel.But that is NOT what a sequel is.A sequel is a narrative, documental, or other work of literature, film, theatre, television, music, or video game that continues the story of, or expands upon, some earlier work. In the common context of a narrative work of fiction, a sequel portrays events set in the same fictional universe as an earlier work, usually chronologically following the events of that work.i know pasting that was a big waste of time, but sequels continue the story of existing media.this film feels more like a remake then a sequel cause aside from changing the characters first name, they steal keep their last names & the did cause the writers are lazy and can't think of another way to continue the story.The acting is also kinda off. First off, Ricky Garcia sounds & acts like he's being sarcastic whenever he's on screen. & Barry Bostwick's performance is so phoned in that he's obviously trying to be the greedy douche boss. The reason why this character's motivation is terrible is cause his position as the head of interactive gaming makes no sense.Who the hell hired that douche who is greedy, yells at his employees & assistant, and is a total phony as well. Becca who's played by Jodelle Ferland is just Amanda Bynes but nothing much really. most of the side character arn't important & rather stupid. & Kevin O'Grady is trying to be Donald Faison but isn't funny.in fact, the film has a bunch of cheep & stupid jokes that make no sense and waste much of the film's time. & trying to recreate jokes from the first movie. Like the famous scene from the first film where Paul Giamatti is blue, Barry Bostwick's face is painted white. & the scene where he get's in a fight with a Hugh Mungus (:3) guy and get's his car towed away, it sorta happens here but with a police officer admitting it's his FIRST day of the job.a scene where Larry makes a inaccurate speech about America sorta sums up the greedy liberals & conservatives. Did Big Fat Liar ever need a sequel?No!with a rehashed plot, weak performances, poor writing, tired clichés, confusing plot holes, unfunny jokes & lazy editing, it's obvious that Universal wanted to try & make people remember Big Fat Liar by what else...Make a follow up 15 years later!this is a weak film that u shouldn't exactly funny and you probably should just rent it, but buying the DVD & figuring out you own it years later, you'll probably forget immediately.Bigger Fatter Liar isn't a terrible movie, but it's a forgettable direct to video feature follow up that really had no reason to exist.so go away, i'm eating a cookie - Duke Wilson
