The Invention of Lying (2009) by Ricky Gervais & Matthew Robinson (REVIEW)

Review by @lost108 · 2711d · of The Invention of Lying

One exceptionally pleasant movie to watch. It's pretty surprising, because I'm not a big fan of comedies. "In a world where everyone is telling the truth ... this guy knows he's lying."

Now she's on the other two films: Idiocracy (2006), a film about a world in which everyone is stupid and one is much smarter than them, and Liar Liar (1997), a film in which everyone is normal (to lie to unconsciousness) and only one must tell the truth, means the opposite of this film. But in any case, Invention of Lying should not interfere with them: the first is an idiotic film, and the second is from comedies based on how great a fool Jim Kerry can make from himself (which we all like).

Anyway, Invention is a very nice movie, as I said, it's not an awful funny comedy, a normal dose of humor and unusual situations. If you forget (and you must) the holes in the script that are normal for such impossible movies, then you will discover that the movie has nothing to do with lying, either with the truth or with comedy, but rather a smart film that reflects the reality we live in, and how important are our wrong things, how we treat each other, how we make the wrong decisions ...

What concerns the content: the action occurs in a world where there is no word of lies, nor are people aware of the concept of lies, simply they tell the truth. Very boring and monotonous world, though very honest. For example, the ads are in the style: "Pepsi! When Coke Cole is gone! "

And as long as one day, Mark Belerson, a man who gets dismissed from work and is at the very bottom of his life, accidentally does not say a lie, that is, does not reveal the concept, which opens all doors to the world in which it lives. Mark Belyson will soon become rich, successful, will become Moses Hymph! Though he will discover that it can not be obtained by lying, even in the world in which he lives.

I also liked the actors, Ricky Gervais , for whom I first hear, was great for the role (by the way, he is also a director and screenwriter, which means his film is completely complete), and Jennifer Garner was great. The soundtrack is also very good.
