Summary
RATING: PG-13 for sexual content, drug references, teen partying and crude humor
Starring Ryan Pinkston, Kate Mara, Teri Polo, Craig Kilborn, John Carroll Lynch, Cynthia Stevenson, Amanda Walsh, and Derek McGrath
Full of It is a comedy about what happens to a habitual liar whose tall tales suddenly come true. Ryan Pinkston stars as a 17-year-old who desperately tries to fit in at a new school by telling elaborate lies to impress the school's most popular kids. But when the lies start turning to truths and the teen becomes the big man on campus, he suddenly finds himself facing a whole new set of problems that he never expected. (New Line Cinema)

The Onion (A.V. Club) Nathan Rabin
Despite a novel premise and an appealing, energetic cast, Full Of It seldom finds magic in its supernatural whimsy.
Read Full Review >Los Angeles Times Michael Ordona
A new teen fantasy movie, is indeed loaded -- with things you've seen many times before.
Read Full Review >Variety Peter Debruge
Hormonally charged comedy is bound to make parents uncomfortable, as writers Jon Lucas and Scott Moore add a sexual dimension to the kind of after-school-special premise that might appeal to 10-year-olds (but is here twisted to suit older teens).
Read Full Review >The Hollywood Reporter Kirk Honeycutt
Filmmakers have long recognized that high school makes a terrific arena for social satire and comedy in films ranging from "Heathers" to "Mean Girls" and "Election." There is a glimmer of such a comedy in Full of It, but this is quickly swamped in overextended gags and broad caricatures.
Read Full Review >LA Weekly Ella Taylor
Full of It abandons the de rigueur hot pastels of the average high school caper in favor of distressed browns and greens, but in the end, all the funky style masks little more than a Pinocchio retread for the adolescent grunge set.
Read Full Review >Chicago Tribune Michael Wilmington
A wish fulfillment fantasy of staggering silliness, both smirkingly cutesy and gratingly offensive, this is one for the movie ash heap.
Read Full Review >Miami Herald Connie Ogle
Full of It's message is directed straight at 9-year-olds -- lying is bad! -- and yet there's plenty of sexual content. Unfortunately there isn't much else.
