Evie seems to have it all but, Evie doesn’t exist - a great setup.

With echoes of Charlie’s Angels and Alias, First Lie Wins is a cat-and-mouse caper between a con woman and the unknown Mr. Smith she works for.

It is a fast, fun (if somewhat forgettable) ride, one can even overlook the predictable reveal.
