Lying Audience Reviews

ThiefHott Too much of everything
Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Maleeha Vincent It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Coastal Cruiser ([email protected]) OK. I'm watching this film right now and it is nearly over. I couldn't stand it any more and HAD to look and see what others thought of the film, because I just wasn't getting it.But it turns out there is NOTHING to get! I would love to talk to someone who loved this film. What did you love? Specifically, what about this film made you rate it high? My suspicion is that a good percentage of lovers of this film could NOT tell you why. I suspect they liked the film because they were "supposed" to like it. You know?The movie is called Lying. We the audience don't know what the lie is for a long time. I'm still not sure and the film is almost over. One woman is apparently deceiving the other three she's invited to her "country home" for the weekend. Now it's one thing for the audience to be in the position of the three girls; not knowing. But even when the girls figure out the lie it's STILL not clear what it is.And if it's what I think it is.... well, so what?The movie is beautifully shot. The house it takes place in is marvelous. I want to build a house just like it. The acting is good. And, it's got cool, hip and beautiful Chloe Sevign. But don't pretend to like this movie just because you don't get it, but think you should. Let all the bad reviews give you permission to be honest. And honestly, this movie is a waste of time.
charles000 I will try to be gentle here . . .Have worse movies ever been created in all of known human history? Possibly, but as a sort of comparative reference, the all time "worst movie ever" classic - Plan 9 from Outer Space - could be rated as a seriously produced example of fine filmcraft.This film Lying is so odd, completely lifeless, thrown together attempt at something possibly resembling a plot, that it deserves its own rating category.Not only is the film itself beyond ridiculously awful, but on the DVD there is the added "interview" with the director, conducted with such serious, way over the top pretentious self absorbed pseudo importance supposedly associated with this production.This is the extreme outer edge of unintended comedy . . . a Monty Pythonesque parody - only this was actually intended as a serious interview.The rating category of 1 (awful) isn't low enough to actually represent the rating of this pathetic non-entity attempt of filmcraft.I would suggest less than zero, perhaps somewhere between -3 to -5.The one positive thing I could say for this film? It could be a good cure for insomnia . . .
donnellydominic On the basis of the sycophantic self serving drivel of Kudos for M's review I have opted not to watch this movie. Seriously promo guys have a word with this idiot. Don't really have anything else to say as I've not watched the movie. I think the 4 out of 14 (soon to be 4 out of 15) comments on the review would support the fact that this guy is a monkey though. Just trying to get to the ten line requirement that will enable me to post this abuse. Kind of tired now, I'm not going to lie to you. Starting to regret it. Getting a bit of the old RSI on the wrist from all this typing. I think i've done it. Ho hum , stay frosty and uh kudos to M.
meyerc-2 I saw Lying recently. Lying is a film that is peaceful to the viewer and has very in-depth characters. Throughout the film there are images that ultimately piece together the movie and reveal new traits within the core characters.Lying succeeds in showing human social interaction in a modern yet raw tone. It grasps the insecurities and uncertainty that people have about others. It reveals how "Lying" to others, including those we love, can become a standard through necessity. For example, one may lie in an attempt to be more desired. It proves how lying is universal and happens subconsciously.I thought Chloe Sevigny and Jenna Malone are absolutely brilliant in this film. Chloe shows her true range of talent, as she is cunning yet calm in her decisions and specific dialogue.Lying is completely original in its setting. The colors and scenery surrounding the house are absolutely magnificent. I truly enjoyed this film and have not seen another like it. And I'm not Lying!
