Ryan Reynolds is one of my favorite actors so it always disappoints me when one of his films doesn't thrill me. This movie lacked plot and substance. There is a man who is going through a divorce and he is telling his young daughter about three women he dated around the time he met her mother. The little girl is supposed to guess which one by the descriptions ends up being her mother. I thought all of the actresses (with the exception of the little girl) lacked personality making it only tolerable to watch. "Definitely, Maybe" was okay but not worth buying before you have seen (like I tend to do). The previews show the film.

It's hard to know where to begin in reviewing this movie. I thought that the whole movie was quite enjoyable. It seemed way different than an atypical romantic comedy. The basic premise throughout most of it is that Will Hayes (played by Ryan Reynolds) tells his daughter, Maya (played by Abigail Breslin), the story about how he met her mother. He made it a little interesting for her and used age-appropriate descriptions. He told her about three different women he had known back in his younger years. He wanted her to guess which one ended up being her mother. Each of the three women (Elizabeth Banks, Isla Fisher, and Rachel Weisz respectively) did a fantastic job in their roles. This movie was so good in my opinion that I saw it twice in the span of a few days. All in all, it really is worth watching at least once if not more than that.

Surprising how they think it is acceptable for a little girl to have so much sexual knowledge and ask her dad inappropriate questions. It was a total turn off.
