Lies & Illusions Audience Reviews

GurlyIamBeach Instant Favorite.
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
Thanos Karagioras At the beginning I saw that in this movie plays Cuba Gooding Jr. and Christian Slater and I thought it's gonna be a nice movie. Then I saw the trailer of this movie and I understood that it will not be such a good movie that I suppose.It is not a good movie and I do not recommend it because I did not like it and I can tell you that it is a boring movie and not an action movie. Although one thing that I liked in this movie is the performance of Cuba Gooding Jr. as a bad guy.Finally "Lies & Illusions" is a movie to simply pass your time and nothing more.
dragon_killer91171 This movie is by far the worst i have ever seen. The camera work was terrible. The spot where you can tell id when they the two bad guys are chasing after wes. It looks like they gave it to a infant and told it to point it at the guys running. I expected more from Cuba Gooding Jr. because all of the other movies. He doesn't really play a good serious character. Usually he plays all the hilarious roles like in the movie Rat Race. Christian Slater was also kind of bad in the movie. Acting really sucked. The storyline also sucks. It goes from a girl getting kidnapped into finding out his long lost wife was actually an assassin and stole a lot of diamonds and money lmao. I recommend this to no one who thinks this is a really good movie, but if you truly think that then you have to go see a doctor.
rybellus Slater plays a self-help writer who knows nothing about his diamond heisting girlfriend who fakes her own death... First, who in the hell approved this screenplay for anything more than toilet paper? Second, who hired an old Dick Dale type guitarist to play the same pathetic surfer riff throughout the entirety of the film? This was such a redundant and broken turd of a film. There really is nothing good to say about it... except that it makes most other bad movies look a little bit better. Oh, and if you really hate someone then you should recommend this atrocity and laugh when they call you up and tell you what a supreme jerk you are.
bob1881 First, let me give you a specific example of just how bad this movie is. In one scene Slater gets beat up by the bad guys in broad daylight. He is bleeding from his nose and he is bleeding quite a bit from the right side of his forehead. Again, he is bleeding from the right side of his forehead. The next day the bad guys pick up Slater to go to the bank and other than a little scratch on his forehead, Slater's face looks really refreshed. And guess what? The scratch on his forehead is on the opposite side, on the left. The day before, when he got beat up, he was bleeding from the right side. But wait! It gets worse! You see the scratch while he is in the car with the bad guys as they drive to the bank. And then, as soon as Slater gets out of the car and turns around, MAGIC, the scratch on the wrong side of the forehead is completely gone! Slater is completely healed! There is nothing on his face. Slater has the power of Jesus.Second, all of the reviews saying that this movie is crap are true. This movie is crap. The only reason I gave it a 2 out of 10 was because it was sooooo bad that I just could not believe it was playing on cable, and I could not believe Slater and Gooding were in it. You know when you see something so bad, or so out of place, that you are in disbelief and you continue to watch just to make sure that your eyes are really seeing what you think you are seeing? Well, this movie will keep you watching, but for the wrong reasons. I think it is a good movie to watch with a bunch of your friends just so that you can all comment during the movie about how bad it is and have a laugh at it. Because, honestly, the plot is sooo stupid, that you will laugh. Slater's girlfriend kills a guy in his apartment and then they go for coffee at a bar (not even a coffee shop) a few blocks away. Who does that? If you kill someone, you go into hiding, you leave town, you change your hair color, whatever! The one thing you don't do is go for coffee at a bar a few blocks away from where you just killed someone. Also, pay attention to the sounds the guns make when they are fired, they sound like little fire crackers. You can so tell they are fake.
