Wall Street Journal -
It's nothing less than a miracle that the director, Craig Gillespie, and the writer, Nancy Oliver, have been able to make such an endearing, intelligent and tender comedy from a premise that, in other hands, might sustain a five-minute sketch on TV.

Christian Science Monitor -
The movie is an idyllic view of life as it ought to be, rather than the way it is.

|
USA Today -
At a time when romantic comedies seem to have exhausted unique ideas, along comes Lars, an original, amusing and heartfelt tale sharply written by Nancy Oliver (Six Feet Under).

The Hollywood Reporter -
A deep, sweet-hearted study not only of one lonely character but also of the community that supports him.

ReelViews -
While "quirky" is a good descriptor for the production, Lars and the Real Girl isn't so bizarre that mainstream movie goers will reject it. This is an offbeat independent production that could become one of those big little fall surprises.
