Review of The Invention of Lying (2009) by Kevin R — 08 Oct 2011

I was sure I would rate this higher after watching the first half or so and then like others say the film becomes a formulaic and bland compared to the super octane inpsired first half or so...

Jennifer Garner is delightful and looks great. The rest of the cast are ok but nothing noteworthy. The writer, director and lead actor is ok, it seems like he wrote it with himself in mind maybe.

But overall there is more than enough intelligence and wit, humour and appeal with this film the second half isn't that bad,turns a in two movies in one and succeeds more or less. Could have been better but again ends up very good.
