Check out a hilarious 90s comedy available on Netflix starring none other than Jim Carrey playing a lawyer forced to tell the truth!
Liar, liar, this is the comedy you need to relax with your family! With Jim Carrey in the leading role, this little modern fairy tale about a dad lawyer condemned to tell the truth following a wish from his son promises you great moments of fun!
From 10 years old
In addition to being a wonderful comedy about the redemption of a father abandoning his family for his work, Liar, Liar is a ferocious criticism of lying of course, but above all of the legal profession, which is shown to be based solely on dissimulation. truth to serve individual interests. A little extra for pre-teens, whom this will probably question with interest.
What they will like:
- The elasticity of Jim Carrey who gives it his all, not hesitating to do tons of things, as the blooper in the end credits proves.
- The misunderstanding created by the fact that the hero has a job based on lies and must find a way around this concern as best he can, giving rise to the funniest scenes in the film!
- The gallery of supporting roles, all well sketched and archetypal, allowing you to grasp all the issues and wonderfully serving Carrey in his delusions.
What may worry them:
- The content of the main trial of the film (a divorce with suspicion of adultery) gives rise to one or two scenes a little “below the belt” which will not worry but can disturb younger viewers.
- The scene during which, to escape the trial he must lead without lying, the character of Jim Carrey commits self-violence in the toilets. The ridiculous sequence will make adults laugh but will lose children.
