Dan in Real Life

We’ve had a bit of a pile-up of films from LoveFilm for a while, so last week when we finally had a few nights free, we watched a few of them. First on the list was Dan in Real Life, which IMDB sums up simply, but effectively:

A widower finds out the woman he fell in love with is his brother’s girlfriend.

Yes, it’s definitely more of a Kristy film, but there were some genuine laugh-out-loud moments for me as well. The story line is somewhat predictable, but solid acting from the cast members ensures that it’s well executed.

I found the ending a bit strange though – it kind-of seemed to just stop, all of a sudden. It almost like they ran out of money, or they got sick of filming, or something like that. Still, it didn’t take away from what was otherwise a solid film. gerrod.com rating: 7.5/10.
