This movie is about a kid that lies about almost everything, like his essay he had to do or else he would have to go to summer school so he wouldn’t be able to do all of the fun activities to do in the summer like go in a pool and hang out with your friends.  His best friend has to spend her summer tutoring.  Jason and his best friend Kali go to Hollywood to get his essay back from Marty Wolf.  He took it from him when he gave Jason a ride to school.  They try to get the script back by making a plan to sabotage him with his own team of people.  They pretend to give him rides and everything they do for him turns from good to horrible.

“Big Fat Liar” is a really funny movie especially the grandmother.  It’s really interesting.  When Marty steals the Big Fat Liar homework assignment, Jason has to go to summer school and Jason doesn’t like it.  And no one believes him.  Jason wants his dad to believe him and Marty won’t call his dad and tell the truth so Jason will pull some pranks.  It was believable, realistic backgrounds and was a fun story.
