This movie is pretty much all metaphors and how one man sees life. I wouldn't say he's lying, he just sees the world through a different perspective, he sees it more fantastical than ordinary people. Because of this, he is able to leave the Earth in as wonderfully celebrated way as he arrived...
Big fish is just a movie about a man who had a life of adventures, but later on, made them into even bigger adventures, whether they be true or not. :) Talk about livin' life to the fullest XD
I've been searching meanings for this movie and it is much much more than an old man's exaggerated tales of his younger self. It is about a man searching for a life in a world that can never quite fit his stature and his lack of timing to live in the beautiful and perfect town of Specta. It is about a man's decision to leave society's expectations and persue his own adventures, which he tries in his own way to teach his son.
