Liar Liar description Jim Carrey is back in top form after his disastrous outing in The Cable Guy. As a lawyer who becomes physically unable to tell a lie for 24 hours after his son makes a magical birthday wish, Carrey learns a few brutal truths about the real meaning of life. There is very little plot, but Carrey's rubbery contortions and slapstick trickery provide ... review details |

| ♥♥♥♥♥ | Jim Carrey's last great comedy |
| Fletcher Reed (Jim Carrey) is a lawyer trying to hustle his way into a partnership at the firm he works at. His slick talking, egocentric ways have already cost him his marriage and is hurting his son, Max, as he breaks promise after promise to the boy. And then Max makes a birthday wish that his dad can't tell a lie for one full day... and it comes true. Faced with a court case that can only be won by pitching a fantastic story he had concocted, Fletcher is horrified to learn that he can only give brutally honest answers to any question posed. Not surprisingly, Fletcher's day of honesty does little to endear him with just about anyone but it does force him to confront some brutal truths about himself.
The humor in this movie is vintage Jim Carrey, but operates at a more mature level than we saw in his earlier movies such as [[ASIN:0790732157 Ace Ventura: Pet Detective]] or [[ASIN:0780618556 Dumb and Dumber]]. There is still plenty of face twisting and physical comedy, but he also interacts at a very human level with his son and ex-wife making him a far more substantial character. The supporting cast is strong across the board. Justin Cooper is unusually good for his tender age as the son. Jennifer Tilly is perfect as the adulterous shrew that Fletcher must help to win her divorce case if he wants to make partner. I won't go through the entire cast, but all of them fill their roles as if born to them. Liar Liar is a great comedy, perhaps the last great one Jim Carrey will ever make. In the ten years that have passed since the film's release, he has made few comedies and almost all of his movies in that time have been lackluster. Watching this movie is a chance to see a master comedian at the top of his game. One final tip, make sure to keep watching when the credits start to see some hilarious outtakes. |
