Dan in Real Life

Do you remember this 2007 Steve Carrel romp? Let me break it down. Widower with three kids who is lonely and wants a woman meets one in a bookstore, but she is somehow already dating the dude's brother. Awkwardness ensues and the viewer becomes detached from the movie because they think to themselves "why is he in love with some weird looking euro chick who looks like she is older than he?". Things get more complicated when he goes on a date with some younger hot chick who is a successful plastic surgeon and just happens to be really into him and is also hot if I did not mention that already. At this point the movie should be over because man has hot rich babe who is all over him, but it is not because it is an art movie. The movie ends with typical guy running after intriguing yet weird looking euro girl and they get married queerness.

Grade D

  1. I read your transmorphers review earlier, but I didn't read this one until now. I almost watched this movie last night, but after the review and the D, I am super happy I did not.
