Review of The Good Liar (2019) by Jackcool — 22 Feb 2020
The movie was going pretty well, until the end. The twist was unexpected, but it also came out of nowhere. Ian Mckellen is a talented liar and a ruthless criminal. Throughout the movie, he tries to gain the trust of Helen Mirren in order to gain her fortune.
So, what’s the big twist? Maybe Helen Mirren knew Ian Mckellen’s motive all along and was testing to see if he changes his mind and decides he actually loves her? Maybe she’s trying to get revenge because Ian McKellen wronged her husband or son! Nope.
Let’s just say Ian McKellen raped Helen Mirren during WWII! Brilliant! It’s just silly. The ending is a confusing mess that just ruins the whole movie.
