Movie Reviews

  • this mystery thriller is outrageous and irresistible; It features delicious performances by Helen Mirren and Ian McKellen and the film has such storytelling gusto that you'll overlook bits of implausible silliness
    4 of 5 by Peter Bradshaw [The Guardian ]
  • the proficiently crafted but underwhelming new thriller from Bill Condon; "The Good Liar" is far from a disaster but it often comes off as something equally dreaded, and considerably duller: inconsequential and unnecessary
    by Jon Frosch [The Hollywood Reporter ]
  • Ian McKellen and Helen Mirren, sharing the screen for the first time, are exquisitely matched in this slight but enjoyable yarn, which is like watching two magnificent vintage cars in a road race, without minding too much who wins
    3 of 5 by David Hughes [Empire Magazine ]
  • Helen Mirren and Ian McKellen deliver an acting duet to die for in Bill Condon't delectably clever and civilized con-artist thriller
    by Owen Gleiberman [Variety ]
  • "The Good Liar" may not have much to say about redemption, entrapment, or the fibs that can hold a friendship together, but the past is only so important to a wicked little thriller that delights in the moment at hand
    Review rate : B- by David Ehrlich [IndieWire ]
