Dan in real life is a cliche romantic comedy with better acting (something I enjoy)
-
What's with this "believability" criteria!? A movie doesn't have to be believable to be profound, insightful and touching! Do I actually believe that a town would go along with Lars' delusion as in this movie? Absolutely not! But does that take away from the beautiful message of this wonderful film, with the lead brilliantly portrayed by Ryan Goslin? Absolutely not! Is the movie "It's a Wonderful Life" any less profound because it's not believable? No way! ZuZu's petals for the win!!

The look on Lorenzo's face when Marcia mentioned her yoga class...PRICELESS!!
Saw "Lars and the Real Girl" a couple days ago and I LOVED it. The quirky premise of the film drew me in (a drama involving a SEX DOLL??). I was expecting crass comedy but in the end, I was touched by the movie's humanity. The townsfolk's acceptance of Bianca as being a "real girl" was unrealistic but it served the purpose of establishing Lars as a valued person and not simply as a freak to be ignored and/or mocked.

Well you are entitled to your opinion, but I disagree completely. Lars and Real Girl went nowhere. It was trying too hard. It screamed "LOOK! THIS IS AN INDIE MOVIE!" Dan in Real Life is, like Marcia said, escapist and not based in reality, but it's just a lovable little diverting slice of pie in that way. It is definitely cliched, but at the very least I think it has a heart and soul.

Regarding Lars and the Real Girl: Wow, Lorenzo is surprisingly off-point on this one. Marcia hits the nail on the head. If anything, Lars is far more "European" than Dan.
-
Dan in Real Life was really good! Steve Carell was brilliant as Dan.
-
I LOVED Lars and the Real Girl.
Dan in Real Life was okay...
-
Both were dry and Lars had no believability. The notion that a town would be selfless enough to help Lars with his problem are both laughable and sad.
-
i liked both
-
I have to side with Marcia BIG TIME on this one, to say you love dan and hate lars is a joke,Lars is a beautifull and moving film Dan is watchable sugary sickening dirge

Lars and the Real Girl is brilliant, Dan in Real Life is horrid, horrid cliche crap. (Cliches aren't necessarily bad, but when you have a movie hitting *every* single sitcom cliche it's painful)
