This is another one of those movies that I just came across by random. And I don't know what to write about this movie. Don't even know what genre to put it in! Perhaps a "dramedy?" (drama comedy?)
I can't really tell you what it's about, as that would spoil it, but the lead character, Lars, (Ryan Gosling) is a troubled young adult that lives in his brother's garage. He has social problems, and difficulties interacting with family, friends and coworkes. He makes a big decision that ends up affecting his relationship with everyone in his small community. The thing is quite absurd, and I was pretty sure that the story was about to go completely down the tubes. However, if you do watch this movie, give it a chance. Somehow, it became endearing, and made me really care about the story characters.
Overall, I'd say this movie is very well done. Without a doubt, it is fresh and unique, and it was a breath of fresh air to see something with new ideas, instead of rehashes of formulaic plots. I would recommend it to anyone. Give it a chance, and I'd love to hear what others think about this as well.
My rating: :4: out of :5:
