Liar Liar (Collector's Edition) Reviews
Laughed 'til I cried!
Liar, Liar is an hysterically funny movie starring Jim Carrey as a man who simply cannot tell the truth. That is, until his little boy makes a birthday wish that for an entire 24 hours his father cannot tell a lie.
Carrey plays a lawyer who defends the lowest of low characters. His life is practically run by his boss, "the woman from Hell", played by Amanda Donahoe.
On the night of his son's birthday party, he is supposed to be at his ex-wife's house celebrating the little boy's birthday. Instead, he is in the sack with Amanda. His little boy makes his wish, and just after the two grown-ups have done their thing, and Amanda asks Jim how he's doing, Jim Carrey tells her, "I've had better." I thought I'd die laughing. The truth is supposed to set you free, but it got Carrey into a whole lot of hot water. Boiling hot water!
He goes about the 24 hours not being able to tell a lie. His entire office co-workers are told off about their appearance and what they should do about it. Even after he leaves work, and is pulled over by a policeman, the policeman asks him if he knew what he'd been doing. Carrey goes into this long description of all the bad things he'd done, like "...running a red light, and speeeeeding!"
In the courtroom he knows he's supposed to lie so that a client can get full custody of her kids plus millions of dollars. But the poor man just can't lie. He requests a bathroom break, and when he's in the bathroom, he begins to beat himself up, knocking his head on the wall, pulling the toilet seat down on his head, just literally bruising himself black and blue.
A man walks into the bathroom and asks him what he's doing. He turns around and with a disgusted look on his face says, "I'm kicking my ... Do you mind?"
I didn't think Carrey could get funnier than he was in The Mask, but I dreamed this movie and laughed all night long. My husband said I kept him awake, and why couldn't I sleep without dreaming.
If you don't watch another movie this year, you should at least be sure to watch Liar, Liar, especially if you are in need of a gut-splitting laugh.
VERY FUNNY!
I have been reading so many books that I am afraid I am way behind on all the great movies out there. Liar, Liar is one I am glad that I finally got to see.
Jim Carrey does an outstanding job playing a very busy lawyer who never seems to have time for his great son Max, to the point that he misses his birthday party which totally crushes Max.
Leave it to a child to have the faith that a miracle can happen and Max makes a wish that Dad will not be able to lie for
an entire day, and this wish comes true.
Well, now the laughs begin as 'Lawyer Dad' must go in the courtroom and lead his life unable to even tell one little white lie. I laughed myself silly! However, this movie did not leave out the tender parts as it finally comes to an end with Dad realizing just how important speaking the truth and keeping a promise can be, especially to those he loves.
I thought this movie was very good and truly enjoyed it!
