Lies We Tell Reviews

Movie Reviews

• weak script and amateurish direction sink this dead-on-arrival debut

  by Stephen Dalton [The Hollywood Reporter ]

• truth be told, "Lies We Tell" is a pretentious and muddled dud of a melodrama

  by Michael Rechtshaffen [Los Angeles Times ]

• Gabriel Byrne is wasted in this preposterous British culture-clash thriller from Mitu Misra ...a weak, increasingly melodramatic storyline littered with horrible stereotypes and preposterous villainy

  by Angie Errigo [The List (UK) ]

• as a thriller, Lies We Tell fails to get up much of a head of steam.. A well-meaning look at the issue of arranged marriage, garnished with some Hollywood star power, but it's too meandering and sluggish to grip

  by Nick De Semlyen [Empire Magazine ]

• a film that also aims for gangster grit, community awareness and emotional impact, but compromises on everything

  by Matt Looker [Total Film ]
