    Chaos Theory

    Ryan Reynolds stretches his acting chops to show a serious side in this romantic comedy that does what few do: ages a pretty boy movie star quite well. Reynolds plays an efficiency expert that learns that life is actually totally unpredictable. His wife, played by Emily Whatshername, is a bit unsympathetic and *****y until the final few scenes, but the little girl who plays his daughter is as cute as a bug in a rug throughout. If you are a Ryan Reynolds fan, you may be suprised to see him playing a bride's father convincingly in this "flash-back" style movie. You may also be unhappy with the leading lady, who does not have chemistry with Reynolds on screen. Frat boy raw humor fans will be disappointed- this movie has a Lifetime-style message. More of a dramedy than a comedy. 2 1/2 stars if you like chick flicks. 11/2 stars if you are a man's man (there is actually a bar fight scene!)

    Chaos Theory

    This movie was better that I expected. Ryan Reynolds exhibits all of his talents in this movie. His quick wit humor is displayed as usual. But also his capability of show dramatic emotion comes out as well. Would have loved to seen a little more of Stuart Townsend's character and the background of the friendship with Ryan Reynold's. The story was dramatic and funny at the same time. This movie should have received a bigger release than it did. Definately go see!!!
