What a great cast
12. "The Invention of Lying"
The first thirty minutes of this film are near perfect. Joke after joke works. A great mix of cynical, smart stuff with broad jokes that would work on a Comedy Central airing at any hour. Then it gets a little weaker. And weaker. Still a great movie, but not at the cult classic it looked like it would become.
I will now watch the entire UK "The Office" and regret not following Gervais ten years ago.

I'm a big fan of Gervais. I agree with you completely that the film grew weaker as it went on, but still, overall it was an entertaining watch. It was Gervais'first film which he wrote I think. Enjoy the office, now that is classic!
Possible? Will stand up.
