Very fun and funny movie, with an all-star cast. It lost steam a little when they started going down a religious path, but overall very good
I love this movie. Ricky is hilarious and the whole thing is an interesting concept and great thought/conversation exercise.
Nonchalant, casual, not over-the-top humor. I give it 7.5/10
Great movie. An interesting point of view.
Good concept but concentrates on religion too much when there's so much potential, worth a watch though.
a silly little movie that turned out to be quite wholesome. worth a watch
An interesting approach to lying for sure and loved the references about religion
Funny because Ricky Gervais. Not super rewatchable.
Putting aside the heavy handed atheist preaching, it has its funny moments. It’ll keep you entertained for 90 minutes
Idk y but Ricky Gervais’s mediocre comedy movies always have a beautiful message behind them. It’s average. But.Good story,plot.Iffy quality
