Customer Reviews of Liar Liar (Collector's Edition)
I can't lie Jim Carrey is funny Fletcher Reede's (Jim Carrey) life is not going well. His wife, Audrey Reede (Maura Tierney) has dirvorced him. And his son Max (Justin Copper) doesn't belive what he says. And one dy, Max Reede tells his class "My dad's a liar." Then tells his class that his father goes to court and talks to the judge. And his teacher says, "Oh I see, you mean he's a lawyer."
And Audrey's new boyfriend (Cary Elwes) is moving to Boston, and wants Audrey and Max to go with him. But when Fletcher calls Audrey that he is not coming to the party, and claims that he is too busy working. When he is really having sex. And Max makes a wish that Fletcher Reede can't tell a lie for 24 hours. And not only he lies to Max, but aslo to his mother (which we don't see in the movie). He been claming that he is on vaction. And that what he does to her, for 5 weeks.
Great Carrey comedy that isn't blatantly over the top.
Jim Carrey plays a unscrupulous lawyer who lets his son down repeatedly to the point that, upon missing his sons birthday party, his boy uses his birthday wish to force his father to speak only the truth for a 24 hour period.
I was really glad to see Jim Carrey in a more serious role than what he'd been in up to this point from the point where he became popular with Ace Ventura. He still does facial contortions and silly humour in Liar Liar, but he also gets to play a serious side as well.
The real fun in this movie is when Jim's character wakes up the morning after his son makes the wish. From that point on it's almost just one laugh after another till the end. And the writer(s) did a good job of presenting situations in real life that most of us do tell lies.
As for the morality of the film, I think that's silly. I don't think it advocates lying and deceit, but even if it did, so what. I don't live my life through films nor do I pattern my actions by their example. I watched this movie to be entertained and to laugh, and I did so in copious amounts.
One of Jim Carrey's best movies
Fletcher Reed is a lawyer who always wins his cases by lying. But unfortunatly the judge isn't the only person he makes a habit of lying to. His constant promises to spend time with his son Max never come through at the last minute.
So when Max makes a wish that for 24 hrs that his dad cannot tell a lie, he never expected it to actually come true. Unfortunatly in the affected 24 hours, Fletcher has a HUGE divorce case to settle and his fabricated story cannot be told.
At the same time, Max's mother Audrey has been offered a marriage proposal from her boyfriend and plans to take Max to Boston with them. Now Fletcher must deal with not being able to lie and try to change Audrey's mind before he loses Max forever.
One of Jim Carrey's best movies, it made me lol the whole time.
