In two of this summer's biggest action movies, the hero's mentor turns out to be a lying, manipulative sack of villainy. And nobody in the audience is surprised, because it's a scifi fact of life: mentors lie to you.

But the good news is, studying the deceitful ways of scifi mentors can help you to deal with your misleading mentros in real life.
