Lars and the Real Girl - starring Ryan GoslingI first heard about this movie when I read about it on Amber's blog. Several people recommended it to me when I was asking for movie ideas.
Lars is a very shy guy, so when he informs his brother and sister-in-law that he is bringing a girl home to visit, they are shocked. They are even more shocked when they meet Bianca, for Bianca is actually a life size doll.
I was expecting the movie to be more of a comedy, however, it was more of a drama. It had its humorous parts, of course, but for the most part, I would not say it was as funny as some people claimed it to be.
However, I did find it to be a good movie, and in fact, it pulled on my heartstrings a few times. Ryan Gosling is unrecognizable in this movie, and has again proven his acting skills are beyond the silly immature characters he played in his earlier acting career.
I would certainly recommend this movie to anyone who is looking for a nice movie to watch, but if you're looking for a laugh-til-your-sides-hurt movie, this is not it.

I'm so glad you got to see this movie! You're right it's not side splitting humor, but it's still very good!
