The concepts of fiction, imagination and speculation do not exist resulting in the movie industry being limited to lecture-style historical readings, television commercials being straightforward and an absence of religion.
A funny but an interesting fantasy premise. The protagonist Ricky Gervais(Writer/Director) somehow stumbles on an accidental lie and he discovers the art of lying. A feel Good film. Darling Jennifer Garner being in the film is an additional reason to watch. She looked very pretty and acted pretty decent.
