The trailer for The Invention of Lying is online. Ricky Gervais stars in the comedy, set in a world where no one can lie. That is until he invents it.

The trailer is inside, and doesn't look too bad at all.

The Invention of Lying stars Ricky Gervais, Jennifer Garner and Jonah Hill. The world as we know it is slightly different, as no one can lie. Sounds good to me, constant brutal honesty! Ricky Gervais' character isn't happy about it though, so he becomes the first person to lie. He then tries to use it for personal gain.

The trailer is below. It kind of reminds me of Liar Liar. And although I like The Office, Ricky Gervais seems to play the same character a lot. However he did co-write it and co-direct it, so he can do what he wants. Take a look at the trailer and see what you think.
