Here is the first look at the new Ricky Gervais movie, co written and directed by himself and a guy named Matthew Robinson.
The Invention Of Lying is set in a world where no one has ever lied. Gervais will play a performer who tells the first lie and harnesses its power for personal gain.

It looks okay. It may be his best film yet, but it doesn't look like his best work.
He needs to stop playing the main roles though as it's going to get boring and all the great work he did in The Office will be ruined.
Like what you were saying about Michael Cera in Year One, an actor doing the same kinda stuff that they are good at over and over will soon lead to the stuff we liked of theres being seen in a boring sad light. Same
Movie looks funny though.
Thought he did it with Merchant...a.k.a the funny one
