WEEK 26: A ROMANTIC MOVIE
Review: The film is set in a world just like our, but with the only difference:
mankind never “invented” lying. People just have jobs, children, a house, a
car. But in the meantime they are 100% honest with each other. And one man,
writer Mark, one day is somehow able to lie and uses it to help himself and
others. Comedian Ricky Gervais wrote the story and directed the film. But also
star in it.
I’ve always liked Gervais’
humor and I enjoy watching him in films. “The invention of Lying” is a fun
film, with jokes that may or may not work for you. For me it did most of the
time. I really liked the premise of the film and it played out well.
