The Good Liar (out Dec 5) reunited the Gods & Monsters pairing of director Bill Condon and actor Ian McKellen. It's the story of an 80-year-old guy who dupes unsuspecting folk out of their hard-earned savings. It’s an intriguing storyline but the execution is poor. From bizarre investment chat, to goofy money-exchanging calculators, to a heinous railway crime, this is a muddled, disappointing movie. Grade: C+.
