7/10
Nice and compact with something more to offer
26 April 2015
As a comedy based on a lie, like most of the comedies are being built like nowadays, this movie actually has something more than just going by that usual recipe. The timings are perfect, The movie waste no time in introducing the main premise, building the main characters, and ramping up for the story's main conflict. In fact all three are done at the same time. The comedy side is really nice. It is at just the right dose, not being lame and also not being overly hyperbolic. All of the previously set tricks are not left unperformed. Also there's enough variation in the comedy scenes. The acting overall is a nice job for me. Kevin Hart did very nice in portraying a confident hustler while Josh Gad also put enough emotions to his character of a timid an insecure man. Having Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting is also a nice addition to the movie.
