As Ricky Gervais said at the end of the Golden Globes the first big screen movie he directed The Invention of Lying is out on DVD, Blu-Ray and for Download today! I can’t lie to you, this is a must own!
The Invention of Lying is a fun movie about a world where no one knows how to lie, but when push comes to shove some how Ricky Gervais knows how to lie and changes the way the world thinks by the tales that he tells. It is fun to watch a world where everyone tells the truth, but I would be totally scared to live in it. Jennifer Garner is absolutely adorable in the movie and she plays her role ever so cute. There are fun smaller roles played by TV stars like Rob Lowe, Jason Bateman and Tina Fey all who are equally funny in the movie.
Besides including this hysterical movie, it also includes some really funny special features and those features makes this movie a must own!
Prequel: The Dawn of Lying: documenting a monumental occasion in history
A Truly “Honest” Making-of Featurette: cast members share their admiration for a comedic genius

Additional scenes
More laughter: Corpsing and outtakes
The Prequel is a deleted scene from the movie where they are all dressed up as cavemen and we see the first person who was able to lie before Ricky Gervais. We also learn that Ricky is kind of cute with long wavy hair. After watching The Truly Honest Making-of Featurelette I totally want to work with him. He seems like such a fun guy and everyone looked like they were having a blast on the set. I should say almost everyone because Ricky flew out his BFF, Karl Pilkington to be an extra in the movie just to torture it him. The poor guy, but the feature was well worth the watch. Next up are deleted scenes and outtakes and there are a lot of outtakes because you will learn that Ricky can’t stop laughing. I never saw anyone lose it as much as him! And because of that I love him and this DVD even more! So pick it up now because you are going to want to enjoy The Invention of Lying!
