Um Vampiro Mentiroso

Ppl who don't get or hate this movie are probably not the target audience. Or think too highly of themselves. Sometimes ppl only see what they want to see.

What sells this comedy is that it doesn't take itself too seriously; it accepts its role as a frivolous parody of Twilight and similar melodramas and just has fun with it. Adams is excellent as the naïve Davis, who by virtue of some fortuitous food aversions and a timely encounter with body glitter sets the rumor mill in motion about his true identity. Given his social awkwardness, it's hard to blame him for riding the popularity wave at the expense of others' feelings, but it is good to see him step up and do the right thing in the end.

LIAR, LIAR, VAMPIRE is silly and self-effacing, but it does well to illustrate the importance of being yourself and surrounding yourself with people who appreciate the real you. Davis is influenced by his sudden popularity to become someone else just to maintain it, but he learns that that doesn't bring happiness, and Vi finds that there's value in peer relationships with the right people. Even Caitlyn changes for the better, giving tweens three examples of characters choosing integrity over status.

Someone asked if teens can be that stupid? Yes! It's called peer pressure and mob mentality. Most ppl are sheep whether you believe it or not. I love how short, sweet and simple the movie is and not overly complicated for a kids movie.

I esp like the fact that they don't divulge everything. They make you think. Like how Davis and his mom move around a lot but they never reveal her profession. Or how every time they move she gifts him a kaleidoscope. I believe that she may be some kind of scientist or agent for the supernatural and the kaleidoscopes are actually a useful tool in spotting supernatural beings like vampires.

Davis Pell (Rahart Adams) is the new kid in school. His mom's work keeps moving them around the world. His neighbor and Twilight fan Vi (Brec Bassinger) sees right through his dorkiness. School reporter Caitlyn Crisp (Tiera Skovbye) is the queen bee. She needs something fresh for her reports. After a mirror confusion and a few other incidents, she makes the assumption that he's a vampire. With Vi's help and Caitlyn's reports, he makes the whole school believe.

It's a silly little Nickelodeon flick. It's cute. It's interesting to see early Stargirl although she may be playing the same age for a decade. That's fine. Many actors have done the same. The role does scream for a nerdy bespectacled ugly duckling. It's a perfect opportunity for a makeover transformation scene but cutie Brec Bassinger never needed that in this one. The concept is fun enough for the first half but it eventually runs out of steam. The whole class is too stupid. Vi is smart but the rest are too eager to buy into the idea. This is fine for a silly teen TV movie.

The crew failed in creating this teenage film. Everything about it was not right. The crew did not add enough effort nor strength in creating this teenage film. The storyline of this teenage film did not make any sense at all. It did not go anywhere. There was not any direction. The cast selection could have been a lot better. They did not exactly fully commit nor connect to the storyline nor to their respective characters. There was not any sign of chemistry between the cast members. This teenage film was that bad that it should not have been created. It was not sending any good messages to viewers. The crew missed an opportunity.

This film manages to deliver a big lesson for it's audience, that lesson delivering to a great impact that leaves a mark for sure. The film has an interesting plot. A boy moves to this new town, and usually doesn't fit in. Finding his chance to finally win over what he's always wanted - to fit in, he resorts to faking, he must, now, do what it takes to keep it that way. I felt as if the lesson, overall that ties in with the plot was powerful, a well lesson to deliver. The film manages to deliver said lesson in a fun, unique way that surely entertains the audience. I personally thought this film would be just another Nickelodeon trash film, but was wrong, pleasantly surprised. The film, as it continues manages to win the audience over with charming characters, who of which's actors deliver smooth, and succeed in strong emphasis toward their characters. The film's moral, or lesson, once again, delivered strongly. But at the same time in a fun, clean way. This film was watched out of boredom. And it surprised me. I'd recommend this whenever it pops up again. It's entertaining, and has a nice charm. It has succeeded in it's moral, and over all sense of uniqueness!

I had not heard about this 2015 movie from writer Adrian Vina and director Vince Marcello before now in 2020 when I was given the chance to sit down and watch it.

As the movie was labeled as a comedy, I decided to sit down and watch it, and also because I hadn't seen it before. And now that I have finished the movie, I must say that the movie is watchable, sure, but hardly an overly enjoyable movie. Sure, it was a pseudo-fun approach as a spoof on "Twilight", but the movie just wasn't crammed with enough pranks, jokes and general fun to have me entertained. Plus, the fact that it was a Nickelodeon movie, meant that it was aimed at a somewhat younger audience.

I will say that the acting performances in the movie were actually quite good. Sure, the characters and the script was a bit off for my age, but I will say that the actors and actresses did actually fare quite well.

All in all, "Liar, Liar, Vampire" scores a five out of ten stars rating from me. I am sure that there is a larger audience out there for this type of movie. I just wasn't really in the target audience.
