Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
Close to an ideal jumping-off point for Carrey, who spends the better part of an hour grotesquely physicalizing his scummy lawyer's struggle with being obliged to utter cold, hard facts.

fresh:
Pretty rudimentary, but it keeps Carrey's occasional over-exuberance in check and delivers likeable, effective, but decidedly mainstream comedy.

fresh:
Like Robin Williams, Carrey has learned to do his side-splitting shtick in character. He's not only under control, but funnier than ever as the truth-impaired Fletcher Reede.

fresh:
...Liar Liar stands to make a liar out of those who predicted that Carrey's career was on the skids.

...Jim Carrey makes a wild and remarkable comeback to cheerfulness...
