Lie Hard

We could see what they were trying to do here, because the scenes were all pretty much cliché, but it just didn't work. The script was pretty bad to begin with and the lead is an overactor, but the worst part of this movie is the editing; the timing is way off on parts that might have worked if not for the painfully long inappropriate pauses. Not recommended.

Some people should stop making movies and use that money and time for something else. The story had some potential, but they drove it into the ground struggling to fill 90 minutes with poor acting and directing.

If you have nothing better to do... but otherwise dont waste your time. It's kind of unoriginal & not really funny. He's kind of sad & pathetic guy, and his attempt to impress her father is ridiculous!

The story felt like something I could get into. Rob/Matt was likeable enough but by the bar scene when he confronts his neighbor, I just wanted to turn it off. I know they tried, they REALLY tried! But this movie was pretty bad, not even the jokes were funny. Easy story to follow with 2 interesting characters but that was it! If I could unsee a movie it would be this one.

"Lie Hard" takes a promising premise, a guy getting into trouble with "the mob" while trying to impress his girlfriend and her family, and totally blows it on about 90 minutes of nothing. After the setup, where "Rob" borrows $4M to buy a mansion to convince his girlfriend he's something special, the film goes off the rails. A strange neighbor tells Rob there is big money stored somewhere in the mansion he bought. This could have taken the film (and audience) in an interesting direction. But, the whole thing nosedives into a mess. The writer and director simply didn't know what to do from there and seemed to just wing it. A film that could have been so much better turns into an attempt by the filmmakers to just fill the time up on screen. Jokes fall flat, weak stereotypical characters are introduced and proceed to flounder on screen, the money hidden in the house angle goes nowhere and everything has a flat feel. Unless you're really desperate, there probably isn't a good reason to watch this film.
