About

If you want a warm, funny romantic comedy with a heartfelt family weekend vibe, Dan in Real Life may hit the right notes; Not for you if you prefer bold, original rom-com twists like The American President or Vicky Cristina Barcelona.

Pros: warm family vibe; charming romance; funny awkward moments | Cons: cloying or artificial; predictable plot; uneven romantic chemistry
