The movie was really good. Witherspoon was great as always!!! Only advice --- purchase from Walmart instead. Best Buy advertises they have movies in-stock READY TO SHIP but actually their inventory is limited. They actually allow you to purchase movies that are BACKORDERED and keep giving you false ship dates. Save yourself a lot of trouble and just purchase them from Walmart that way you can actually be watching the movie instead of waiting on it. Again movie rates an A+ but Best Buy rates an F- (lower if there is such). AFTER READING THE REVIEW GUIDLELINES I AM PRETTY SURE THIS REVIEW WON'T GET POSTED. THAT'S OK --- IF BEST BUY KEEPS STICKING IT TO THEIR CUSTOMERS THERE WON'T BE ANY NEED FOR REVIEWS!!!

The Good Lie, with Reese Witherspoon is funny and delightful but also has a great message. The acting was great! At first I thought I may have made a bad choice but once the story unfolded I loved every minute of it. I really appreciate stories that make you think about the important things in life. This movie did not disappoint.

The Good Lie is a wonderful story of triumph in the face of tragedy. We don't always get a good picture of what the World is like outside of our own lives, but this film shows the heartbreak that thousands of people go through everyday. I'm glad Hollywood is making more uplifting films to share with everyone both young and old.

A true story told with warmth, reality, up close and personal. The actors drew me into their world, their time, their experience of suffering, sorrow, separation, sacrifice, survival. I was reminded of the importance of family, fraternal, extended, hope, faith in God, following Jesus forward.

Amazing story of an incredible war torn family from Sudan coming to America. Wonderful characters, writing, acting, and character development. The title is somewhat misleading as there are actually two "Good Lies" and each will emotionally grip you. This movie is not to be missed.
