Fantastic

This is one of those rare cases where someone being original actually wasn't them doing anything odd and avant gard they could in order to come off simply as 'original' but was actually extraordinarily good. The concept, while it might seem odd and far fetched at first is excellent. This almost feels like a completely unexplored genre. I really had thought that I had seen enough movies by now that nothing much would really come along and be as completely refreshing as this was. The amount of detail in the story devoted to a 'world without lies' really shows us just how much we do lie everyday and don't even know it. Originality to me is now synonymous with crap as it is usually used to describe something done for the sole purpose of it's originality and as we all should know by now,...

I Said Something that Wasn't

I will say that this movie wasn't as funny as I expected it to be, but it was much more touching than I thought it would be. Leave it to Ricky Gervais to come up wiht one of the most original ideas in a long time. Not as funny as "Ghostown" but funnier than "Extras", see this movie on several levels...for laughs as well as for a touching premise that leaves you wondering what priorities are the most important for you.
