A little disappointed with Lars
27 May 2008
Warning: Spoilers
First let me say that this movie was highly recommended to me by a number of folks which may explain why I was disappointed. (Needless to say, when you see a movie with zero expectations you tend to be a lot more forgiving) Not sure how many people remember ABC after school specials, but this movie kind of felt like one of those, and probably would have been better had it been compressed into 1 hour of television.

My main problem with the movie is that the plot was very much lacking and wasn't advanced very far. It seemed very interesting at first but most of the movie was spent establishing that the town accepted Lars' girlfriend. The whole time I found myself thinking...yeah I get it, they accept her...please move on to something more interesting. But that never happened...

In the end I found it to be very predictable and hum drum.
