Liar Liar (1997 Tom Shaydac)

We had some time to kill before the last Line of Duty, and this was on. It saved having to think. Jim Carrey is way, way over the top, channelling 'Jerry Lee Lewis' (Q, we know who she means) and Basil Fawlty in an almost unwatchable performance. He's excruciating.

Best moment by far was one of the outtakes, when Swoosie Kurtz breaks the scene by calling him an 'overactor' - he hugs her and then quips 'They're on to me'.

Also with Maura Tierney from E.R., Cary Elwes, Anne Haney (loyal secretary), Jennifer Tilly, Amanda Donohoe, Jason Bernard, Mitchell Ryan (Lethal Weapon).
