Washington Post
It's a magnificent comic experience.
80
The New York Times
Two little words: Jim Carrey. That's all it takes to transform Liar Liar from a formulaic Hollywood comedy into an uproarious one-man free-for-all.
80
Chicago Reader
Carrey's attempted self-immolation in a men's room, which weirdly recalls certain Fred Astaire routines, may be a small classic.
75
Chicago Sun-Times
I am gradually developing a suspicion, or perhaps it is a fear, that Jim Carrey is growing on me. Am I becoming a fan? In Liar Liar he works tirelessly, inundating us with manic comic energy.
75
San Francisco Chronicle
Carrey goes boldly where no funnyman has ventured before, and it's simply amazing to watch him do it.
75
San Francisco Examiner
What's best about this script is the premise: a lawyer who doesn't lie.
67
Austin Chronicle
This film is both too formulaic and too much a one-man vehicle to rate as a true masterpiece. But God strike me dead if I'm lying, this is one gut-busting funny movie.
63
ReelViews
Carrey is forced to confine his antics to the needs of Liar Liar's unimaginative screenplay, and the results are mixed.
