The Good Lie

What I liked:

• It sheds light on a sad and unfortunate story.
• It stars Reese Witherspoon, Corey Stoll, Arnold Oceng, Ger Duany, Emmanuel Jal, Kuoth Wiel, and Sarah Baker.
• The cinematography in the African scenes is well done.
• It pulls at your emotional heart strings.

What I didn't like:

• This world has too many naive people.
• The film isn't as real as it could have been.  It's very ABC Family/Lifetime/Hallmark television like.
• Don't expect a lot of RW.  She may have attached her name to this project to shed light on it but she's not in it as much as you would think.

Grade: B-
