   Sep 30, 2009 · “The Invention of Lying” isn’t strident, ideological or argumentative; it’s simply the story of a guy trying to comfort his mother and perhaps win the woman he loves. Gervais, who co-directed and co-wrote with Matthew Robinson , walks a delicate tightrope above hazardous chasms.

   Is 'the invention of lying' a PG-13 comedy?

   • In its amiable, quiet, PG-13 way, “The Invention of Lying” is a remarkably radical comedy. It opens with a series of funny, relentlessly logical episodes in a world where everyone always tells the truth, and then slips in the implication that religion is possible only in a world that has the ability to lie.

   Is the invention of lying a good movie?

   • It doesn't quite follow through on its promise, and relies too heavily on shopworn romantic comedy tropes, but The Invention of Lying is uncommonly sly and funny. Not funny or surreal enough to distract you from its shortcomings and not subversive enough, if at all, to actually have something to say.
