Pants on Fire

“Liar liar.”

Jack Parker (Bradley Steven Perry) has talked his way out of trouble for years, and his favorite lie is Mikey, an underprivileged teen he claims to tutor. Then a real Mikey (Tyrel Jackson Williams) shows up at his door, and the other things Jack has made up start coming true. Jonathan A. Rosenbaum builds the comedy on a plain idea: every lie has to be paid for by someone, sooner or later.
