      These segments, meant for laughs, feel false and somewhat disrespectful, turning a serious ordeal of finding work and adapting to a new land into tired comedy bits. ( Read More )
    • Kimberley Jones

      If The Good Lie becomes more generic in America with the addition of bona fide movie stars and slicker dialogue and plotting, the finely calibrated performances of the three leading men pull the film through to its moving conclusion. ( Read More )
    • Susan Wloszczyna

      It is a good thing these actors are charming enough that they arent too hampered by a long string of fish out of water gags. ( Read More )
    • Tim Robey

      The challenges of Americas welfare system give this impeccably honourable film a vivid set of hurdles to surmount, and it doesnt feel overegged or excessively sentimentalised. ( Read More )
    • Donald Clarke

      This is a deathly serious subject and if The Good Lie does anything to raise awareness, its creation will have been worthwhile. ( Read More )
