There's lots of atmosphere and dramatic potential here, but tangled story-telling and jump-cut editing combine to ensure it's never quite realised.February 04, 2018
The film is hindered by clunky dialogue and strained performances from minor characters ...February 02, 2018
Something's got to give, and unfortunately it's narrative coherence and character consistency, rather than any of the superfluous subplots, that get the chop.February 02, 2018
Despite some very talented actors doing their level best and lending what substance they can, this is a pretty leaden and unconvincing film, further hampered by a cheesy and intrusive musical score.January 30, 2018
Weak script and amateurish direction sink this dead-on-arrival debut.February 02, 2018
[A] glum, poorly organized crime drama.February 04, 2018
A drama-cum-thriller about a woman trying to save her sister from a nightmare marriage, it overstuffs its plot and overdoes its melodrama.February 01, 2018
Truth be told, "Lies We Tell" is a pretentious and muddled dud of a melodrama.February 04, 2018
This sleazy, sluggish British thriller is clumsily handled and wastes a number of talented actors.February 01, 2018
The film is a mess.February 04, 2018
From the storyline to the score to the climactic reaction shots to the purposely head-scratching ending, Lies We Tell is crammed, histrionic, and way too damn much.February 03, 2018
Nothing to reflect on, nothing to question and nothing to care about.
