The Invention of Lying

This movie is really good, I had a lot of fun watching it. Im glad because this movie presented the possiblity of an all-honest society. You can see clearly how faulty our system will be if only one person knows how to lie. Its clear how lying is used to take advantage and make profit.

I thought this movie would be stupid too. I waited for it to come out on Netflix before I saw it. I didn't think it would be worth paying full price. I was wrong. This movie was hilarious! I watched it with my Mom and she was laughing so hard she was crying. The world would be a much different place if nobody knew how to lie. Although, it seemed to me that the people in that movie were never really bothered by the truth.

I've seen it. I thought it was very original, and as a fan of the office from the beginning, hell, I even used to watch the 11 o clock show, back when Ricky Gervaise was rubbish on it. and I think it's quite an intelligent film with quite a lot of sensitivity for the subjects in it. in interviews, the experience with the dying mother was based on Rickys own experience with his mother. where he would tell her he beleived in them meeting again in the next life, even though he didn't, to comfort her. it's a clever and amusing film.

I loved this movie. it shows us how lying is useful in making society happy, but society gets carried away so that people believe in the lies and get too distant from the truth. lying is a double edged sword.
