Is this possible in real life
Can you outrun an airplain that is about to fly with that ladder on wheels?
shareCan you outrun an airplain that is about to fly with that ladder on wheels?
shareWhen it's taxiing sure, but considering how fast a plane has to go to take off I would say no.
shareKind of Off Topic but the actual premise of a habitual liar waking up and being brutally honest is Factual. Oliver Sacks writes books about how brain injury can even cause a person to see things upside down or people as inanimate objects. There is a center in the brain responsible for inhabition. When injured via trauma or stroke a person says whatever they feel Your breath stinks!!!!
shareYou might be able to do it, I have never done it but why would you? There are things that are done in the movies, should remain done in the movies, and never done or attempted to in real life.
shareTo be quite honest, I felt that it had a Fast and Furious 6 runway length feel about it.

I don't know. What's an "airplain"?
How fast does an 'airplain' go? What does 'outrunning an airplain' have to do with this movie anyway?
The possibility of someone being forced to 'not lie' does exist (I already answered your post, now I am answering the misleading topic).
It is of course possible - there are many ways entities can force, persuade, mesmerize or delude other entities to all kinds of limitations and behaviour patterns. You could achieve this by hypnosis, for example, probably relatively easily, too (if you know what you're doing).
However, I'd like to rather discuss the other implications that even this movie doesn't really explore.
If you FORCE someone to be good, even if it's just by 'not lying', then is it valuable? I mean, if someone ONLY acts good because she is following orders, or because she's hypnotized or 'magically wished' to do it, but is basically doing against her wishes, consent, intentions or true nature, then can it be said to be true goodness?
In my opinion, goodness can only be true, when you have a real choice between good and evil, but you still choose good. In other words, you CAN lie and get away with it, but you STILL choose to be honest.
That's true honesty. The same goes for all goodness. If you can get away with not helping a fallen man, but you help him anyway, that's true goodness.
If you can easily do something evil to someone (regardless of scale, even if it's just stealing an apple (not the toy (that's called a computer for some reason), THAT would be doing that someone a favor)), but yet you still choose to do good to them, that's true goodness.
Only when you can freely choose between good and evil, can the goodness be said to be true. That's why we have so much choice, and we can do nasty things if we so wish.
Forced good is not real goodness at all. It may be beneficial, and a solution to certain problems, I am not denying that, but in the end, goodness is only real, when it's freely chosen, and when the choice to be evil was also present.
