Despite confusing messages, a strong cast and playful comedy make us glad someone invented Lying

Written and directed by Ricky Gervais and Matt Robinson, The Invention of Lying is a satirical comedy that takes place in an alternate reality where lying does not exist.

Gervais (The Office, Extras) plays the main character, Mark Bellison - a short, fat loser who discovers how to lie, or "say what isn't."
