The Invention of Lying

[flopstock]

It was horrible! My daughter asked if we could please turn it off because she didn't think she'd be able to go to sleep after waching it, it was so sad.

It's advertised as a comedy. Not so much. We watched the outtakes first and were completely unprepared for the depressing hour ahead. It may have finished funnier then hell, but it lost us shortly after his mother died.

It has Ricky Gervais who she loved in Ghost Town.

huh?? I don't get what happened

Well, it starts with a masturbation conversation and then slides downhill from that, if possible. Rather then being a movie about lying, it is about everyone being compelled to state out-loud what is on their mind.

Just a pathetic movie, IMO. Fortunately only wasted a dollar at red box if we get it back on time.

I have tried to watch it twice and have fallen asleep both times, but that doesn't say anything about the movie as I can never stay awake during movies. My friends really liked it though. I did hear that it isn't a laugh out loud comedy the entire time.

I'd like to give it another go around when i am not tired as I love Ricky Gervais

He's the reason I grabbed it. I had gotten Ghost Town out of a discount bin and we just loved it and so went looking for other things he's done. That's when we realized he had been in Night at the Museum another movie she loved..

She informed me last night that I need to vet PG-13s for her 'cause she doesn't want to watch sad movies. I told her we're in trouble because I don't want to watch them either:yuk

Awww man I didn't realize it is that sad.. I'm not much for sad movies, but it is like now that I have seen the first bit... twice.. I want to see the whole thing through.

I LOVEEED Ghost Town!

I dind't think it was good and I didn't like Ghost Town either.

And I despise Ricky Gervais. Everyone keeps telling me how absolutely hilarious he is but he has never amused me in the slightest.

 

[GuesSAngel]

i hate movies that are misleading and will show every funny/scary part in the previews.

 

[pinkporridge]

i think bits of it were funny.. i didnt entirely hate it

The Office is brilliant in places, but I think his standup is great.
