I probably would have liked this a lot more had I not already seen (and been a big fan of) Ferris Bueller's Day Off. The central characters in both films are charming liars who always seem to get away with things. The main difference is that the (main) target audience for Big Fat Liar is pitched about 3 to 5 years below that of Ferris Bueller.
My kids enjoyed it whilst it was on but it failed the "endlessly repeat the best bits after the film" test.
