Strong and Moving!
I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
The acting in this movie is really good.
After quality comedy of Ace Ventura and Dumb & Dumber, Jim's trying to put himself into a role of a finally a NORMAL person but who's put into a SITUATION that MAKES him a goofball. The humor's FORCED, not genuine. I think the promotional line on this movie's cover "up-from-your-belly laughs" is a bit of an exaggeration.
Liar Liar was a good movie, and definitely something I'm glad I had the time to watch. Sure the storyline was crap, and Carrey's acting is either something you love or hate, but in the end I still decided to give Liar Liar a "Good" on theVade Review Bar or a 7 out of 10. Yeah, it was stupid, but it was funny. And if a movie can get me to laugh hard enough for me to not care about story, then I guess it deserves that rating in the end.Read more at theVade.
See it because it is excellent because it is very funny, Jim Carrey makes a lot of laughs, it is very funny and entertaining from the beginning to the end. He has an excellent screenplay and excellent story, Max the son of Reede Fletcher (Jim Carrey) celebrates his birthday and asks for a wish: that his father does not lie for 24 hours, Jim Carrey is a lying father who works as a lawyer.To the negative reviewers of this film, if you do not like Jim Carrey's comedy and it does not make you laugh do not look at his comedies and look at him in the drama, you can look at "Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind" there is serious or "The Majestic" sure you should like it. I do not understand how they can speak ill of "Liar Liar" if it's excellent, not only makes of a liar father but makes of a liar and crazy father who works like lawyer, I die of laughter the funny things that does Jim Carrey in this movie but it's a bit exaggerated like when he hits with the toilet lid in the bathroom and a gentleman who does not understand it looks at him.The ending phrase "Nothing stops the claw!" It killed me with laughter, it's very funny and entertaining from the beginning until it ends. Jim Carrey in this movie is comical, the bloopers are great and I give him 10 points. It's a masterpiece by Tom Shadyac.
Liar, Liar (1997): Dir: Tom Shadyac / Cast: Jim Carrey, Jennifer Tilly, Maura Tierney, Cary Elwes, Justin Cooper: A one joke comedy made completely out of cardboard. Title indicates an accusation made against the title character but the screenplays fails to be anything more than a sitcom. Jim Carrey plays a lawyer who is unable to lie after his son makes a particular birthday wish. He had promised to spend more time with his son but he often fails in keeping these promises. He misses his son's birthday after engaging in an affair. The whole idea of his inability to lie is never explained. It makes no sense that he cannot even write a lie. His next case is constructed totally out of lies. Jennifer Tilly is trying to gain custody of her child even due to a long list of affairs. Directed by Tom Shadyac who previously directed Carrey in the even worse Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. Carrey holds his own using much physical humour and a clever manner to his disposal in dealing with the court case. Tilly is in excellent form as Carrey literally makes her believe her own horseshit. Supporting roles are the usual flat cookie cutters such as Maura Tierney as his ex, and Cary Elwes as her potential new boyfriend. Justin Cooper plays his son who seems to have the amazing ability to create magic with birthday wishes. Good idea with a lot of physical humour but without payoff and that is no lie. Score: 5 / 10
