Surprisingly incoherent and boring
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
View MoreExcellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
View MoreGreat story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
View MoreA dynamic film on relationships, family drama and self discovery, The Truth About Lies is an outrageously amusing romantic comedy that I cannot get enough of. Fran Kranz (Gilby) and Odette Annabelle (Rachel) did a stupendous job playing their characters and produced incredible cast chemistry between one another. Besides the fact of this film having an enticing unconventional love story, I appreciate the other elements such as coming to terms with your identity and facing heartbreak. The "fake it till you make it" theme of the movie was also one of my favorite parts. It reminded me of films like Catch Me If You Can and Just Go With It. In my opinion, this film was very well written and had a refreshingly original storyline. While it contained a lot of situational humor, I was still able to relate to it because of the family drama and the indecisive relationship issues with cheating and scandalous love affairs. I'm pretty sure there's at least one aspect people could relate to in this film. Hats off to director Phil Allocco, extraordinary job.
View MoreThe Truth about lies is an exceptional film! Depicting how lies and "faking it till you make it" can trap someone in a web of dishonestly, director Phil Allocco goes above and beyond in this unconventional love story. While the film was full of quirky and embarrassing moments, it was undeniably funny. Allocco was able to honestly and comically portray a taboo relationship between a man and his boss's wife, and how it may realistically end!! I was presently surprised by the quality of actors and overall plot development. Lies and love have never been so enjoyable. Highly recommended!
View MoreThe love story between the self-discovering characters in The Truth About Lies mixed in with the hipster comedy reminded me of college life and how dramatically funny people can be. The things done for love is something that has been taken to a level that is cringy yet amusing to watch in this film. The narcissism in some of the characters creates a realistic trait that is all too recognizable and certainly entertaining. Sharon (Mary Elizabeth Ellis) is by far a model example for this feature as she phenomenally performed her role as the self- absorbed girlfriend. On top of that, my favorite scene was when Gilby (Fran Kranz) was confronted with a relentless customer who made his job little harder. As a customer service worker, I can relate to his pain but also laugh with him on how irrational people can be. I recommend this lovable rom com to those who enjoy laughing at life's cringy yet teachable moments.
View MorePhil Allocco's The Truth About Lies is a rom-com that follows the musings of Gilby (Franz Kranz) a man without a plan. This film is well written and is jam packed with witty banter and situational humor, portrayed by an authentic charismatic cast. The characters are all relatable which is unusual for a rom-com. Allocco does a great job at merging all the markers to make a great film. I really appreciate how director Phil Allocco not only brought to life an original storyline but he gives his audience an unpredictable ending. This film has something for everyone to relate to whether it be the crazy family drama, lackluster love life or the journey towards self discovery. If you're interested in watching a film that presents the true dynamics of relationships in a comedic manner than I strongly recommend watching this film!
