Story Synopsis

Liar Liar is a funny and emotional story about a man who is torn between the seduction of materialism and the love of his son. Fletcher Reede (Jim Carrey) is a successful lawyer, but an unreliable father. His five year old son, Max (Justin Cooper), has learned through time to take Fletcher’s promises with a grain of salt—and when he blows out the candles on his birthday cake, wishes his dad will not tell a lie for one day. Miraculously, his innocent wish comes true and, for the next 24 hours, Fletcher can’t lie to save his life. From the moment Maz blows out the candles, the comedic talents of Jim Carrey come alive as Fletcher tries to say anything but what is really on his mind. An outstanding supporting cast—with the talents of Swoosie Kurtz, Cary Elwes and Jennifer Tilly—adds to the spirited comedy.
