If you're NOT a Carrey fan, I recommend you see this & THEN pass judgement on his talent & his ability to hold a movie together with something other than his butt.He rocks.

Reviews for Liar Liar
While the humor is absolutely hilarious, the sentiment is overly sappy, and several times that conflict risks sinking this otherwise sturdy vehicle.

...as Liar Liar proves one more time, there is probably no more consistently funny performer working in film today.

...Liar Liar lets Carrey show you the funny...
01/01/00
What's best about this script is the premise: a lawyer who doesn't lie.
01/01/00
Its premise is flimsy, but its payoff is riotously funny.
01/01/00
Top Critic...Liar Liar is hysterical.
01/01/00
Jim Carrey Jim Carrey.
01/01/00
To his credit, Carrey is right for this sort of role, as his physical and facial contortions appropriately convey his character's shock and disbelief. But there are only so many jokes to be had with this as the film's centrifugal force.
01/01/00
...a reliably entertaining slice of comic nonsense.
01/01/00
It’s a magnificent comic experience.
01/01/00
Top CriticIn the film, Carrey manages a balancing act that'll please his fans, but also promises to broaden his audience.
01/01/00
All-in-all, Liar Liar is pretty good fun, and it represents one of Carrey's most entertaining movies to date.
01/01/00
Top CriticWell into his tumultuous career, Mr. Carrey finally turns up in a straightforward comic vehicle, and the results are much wilder and funnier than this mundane material should have allowed.
01/01/00
Top CriticEssentially, the actor is miscast here. Unlike [Robin] Williams, he isn't good with children. In fact, you don't even sense that he likes his child co-star. There's no apparent rapport.
01/01/00
One of the reasons Liar, Liar works so well is that Carrey gets to bounce off an excellent supporting cast.
01/01/00
No review available.
01/01/00
With a little more concentration on the script and a little more subdued Carrey, this could have been a much better film.
01/01/00
The funniest movie I have seen in a very long time.
