Henry D @Henry_Domke May 18 Charming and emotionally engaging. See more August S @DrearyJune May 14 Brilliant way of showing how the inability to connect with others can lead to a mental decline. Gosling played his character amazingly. See more Brooke S. @Brookespears May 3 I have seen this so many times and it still feels like a quiet wha the hell? Lars holds a plastic woman like she is made of light,  I can never wrap my head around it. The people around him decide to treat her with respect which it takes a lot, I’d imagine. But they do it not because it makes sense, but because they love Lars. This movie is gentle and I love it sooo much. The kindness is strong. They’re accepting even if they don’t understand why. Every time I watch this I believe a little more in humanity. See more m T @meproostr May 2 incredibly endearing, so so underrated See more Linda L @LLLuke Apr 20 On my TOP movies to share. This is a shocking and absurd yet very grounding accounting of how trauma can affect relationships and ability to connect with others in a healthy way. I absolutely love this movie for the care of a community in bringing a socially defunct person through a process of healing and sense of safety in normal daily interactions and intimate friendships. See more Par H @Parhwy Apr 12 Lars and the Real Girl (2007) is a 103-minute-long Canadian American comedy I saw on Prime in April 2026. As the credits roll over a few minutes, we get a quick introduction to Lars, Gus and Karin, and that there is something wrong. The movie sets out to show that care and sympathy, a communal play-along game, can aid those struggling with the cruel bastard of reality. Interiors, costumes, meals, settings and scenes are authentic and interesting. Rewatch? This is my second viewing, so you never know! Recommend? Yes. 6/10. See more Read all reviews
