Overall, it was dull. The movie starts with the main character losing everything and hitting rock bottom, before he starts lying, unintentionally, a strategy that leads to him haing a few weeks of a fantasy life and that's it. The movie never goes deeper than the surface, like with the case of the father, that was left like that, or the best friend. The romance was also lousy and difficult to like, there were only few moments worth laughing and the ending was just wide open.
We all have those moments in life when everything starts falling apart. It feels like a things build up and your support system isn't there anymore. This film hits that on the head, Gilby (Fran Kranz) performance is believable, and you don't feel sorry for him but you just understand why things in life aren't going the way they should. The film does a great job of using situations as comedy and it's done in a sophisticated way. You don't feel forced to laugh while watching the film, it comes naturally similar to the blossoming relationship between Rachel (Odette Annable) and Gilby (Fran Kranz). Also, the chemistry between them is organic and grows throughout the movie. Considering their situation and that it is scandalous it's important that the relationship builds slowly. As a viewer, I found myself rooting for them to stay together because they charmed me as did the entire movie. Funny, surprising, and lovable. I highly recommend this interesting and hilarious take on a romantic comedy.
Disjointed and without one laugh. Characters are shallow and their actions are unbelievable. It's a shame because most of the actors are good. They're just not given anything to work with. Pass.
I found the screenplay bright and with enough twists and turns to keep us interested. And who couldn't love a boy actor named Oakes Fegley. In the this day where most screenplays are refreshed this one brings a bit more levity to the increasingly bland film selection.
As someone who regularly enjoys watching romantic comedies, I can honestly say that The Truth About Lies provides a fresh new take on the genre. This film integrated the ideal balance of romance, comedy and drama while perfectly depicting the hardships that one can face when involved in an unhealthy relationship. Odette Annable took on the role of Rachel and delivered a character that was both relatable and realistic. Similarly, Fran Kranz personified the role of Gilby and shaped a character that gave the audience someone to empathize with. These elements combined with the rest of the cast, generated impeccable on screen chemistry and delivered a seamless performance. Pushing a "fake it till you make it" mentality, this film undeniably delivered the lighthearted experience I always crave from romantic comedies. Overall, I genuinely enjoyed this film and would highly recommend it.
