Dan in Real Life description
Steve Carells best film performance to date can be found in the fitfully engaging Dan In Real Life, where his long-suffering persona suits a character who lets his long-dormant hopes rise for a moment, only to be shot down again.

Dan in Love with his Brother's Girl
|
Dan in Real Life is a very sweet film, and my family and I enjoyed it quite a lot. Actor/comedian Steve Carell plays Dan, a newspaper advice columnist who has been a single parent to three daughters (two of them teenaged!!!) since his wife died.
Carell plays the part of the grief-stricken, surviving parent, just trying to keep moving, in an extremely believable fashion. His interactions with his three daughters are extremely realistic; although, I would have grounded the middle child for the next 30 years. This, however, was part of the excellent portrayal of just how numb, withdrawn, sad, and lonely Dan really is. Carell's acting in this film is a very nice departure from his other roles, and he does quite a good job. The other members of the cast are also very realistic and enjoyable to watch.
There is a really feeling of family in this movie, and it is lovely to see a basically normal, functional family coping with the joys and hardships of everyday life. There are emotional moments, humorous events, tense scenes, and an overall celebration of family life throughout, which come across as real, and are a true pleasure to watch.
Yes, this movie is a bit predictable. However, it is warm, touching, and quite enjoyable. I recommend this film to just about anyone.
