Liar

Highly recommend this movie, but you won't find it under the title Liars. The title on Netflix is actually: Lies and Deceipt.

I absolutely binged watch this series and re-watched certain episodes to make sure I saw, what I saw.

The cast, the acting and enjoyed the originality of the script.

Or at least, I haven't seen another series like this and wouldn't know what to compare it with. I did rank it an 8/10.

Loved the subtitles aren't paraphrased it was word for word.

Can't say much without spoilers which is why., I'm writing on this format.

This movie is highly recommended, I'm now going to watch it in English to see if the translation holds up.

It is rare that I just cannot finish a series- that too one that only has six episodes. This is the most dull, slow, uneventful and ridiculously contrived show I have watched EVER. I was reeled in by the "preview" on netflix which promised a psychological thriller after a mysterious night.

Spoiler alert (not): there is never any thrill to come. Just a bunch of monotonous conversations, no challenge that the protagonist has to overcome to get her story heard and the sister/ex husband affair is thrown in just for some excitement. But that is stupid too as its obviously added in due to lack of anything else going on.

I liked the series in general, but I did not love it. The positives are the good acting and the photography on an island, the beach brighten up the atmosphere a bit. Despite the unrealism the series is quite entertaining.

The negatives: The feminism throughout the series is enormous! It starts in a very unrealistic way, the police investigating so actively from the beginning? That doesn't work like that, but it's a series and in this case pure fiction. Quite quickly the series begins to decline when introducing the story about the sister, which tarnishes the main theme, and above all it has nothing to do with it, it is only to fill minutes. The last two chapters are totally incredible and ridiculous, but also exciting. In the end you almost hate the victim, Laura, more than the rapist, a gun? Please! You've fallen under!!

A pity that the main topic has not been treated with more respect and truthfulness.

Mentiras as Lies and Deceit is remake of British Series Liar. Original British Series might be good as it has got good ratings but Mentiras is just a trash. Watched Mentiras as original was not available on ant OTT streaming channel but I regret my decision. You can avoid this as there are far better shows than this on Netflix and other OTT channels.

Such an amateur take on the British drama Liar. Watched it merely for the Spanish as I currently study it but this is painful to watch. Bad acting, aweful writing. Just bad. Avoid.
