Dan in Real Life…

I wanted to like this film, but ultimately it was just too long and run of the mill to do that. They would make their point in the first 2 minutes but the scene would go on for another 3. One or two scenes like that can be tolerable, but an entire film gets annoying. Which when you look further shows how little substance there was to this story. The film was only 98 minutes, if they trimmed all the fat it would probably be less than an hour.

All the characters were likable, and Dane Cook wasn’t annoying. Not much of a comedy, it tries to be a more realistic romantic comedy, which would be fine, except that it went on and on and on.
