 "CHAOS THEORY" MOVIE REVIEW BY MICHAEL ELLIANO July 23, 2008

REALLY LIKED THIS MOVIE. I LIKED THE CHARACTERS AND THEIR INTERACTION, THE STORY WAS FUN TO WATCH, THE ENDING WAS AS QUIRKY AS THE WHOLE UNDERLYING STORY. ITS NOT WIERD AND YOU HAVE TO WATCH IT TO UNDERSTAND THAT. BUT TO KEEP THIS SIMPLE, THIS IS THE KIND OF MOVIE THAT YOUNG(18-29) AND OLD WILL ENJOY. IT HAS A LITTLE SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE. A LOOK AT LIFE AND THE OLD JOKE THAT GOD LAUGHS WHEN WE MAKE A PLAN. WELL IT MAKE ME THINK AND LAUGH A BIT AND FOR THAT I ENJOYED THE HELL OUT OF IT.
Loved it!!! August 24, 2008

I loved this movie, maybe in part because I'm celebrating my 25th anniversary this week and this movie reveals a truth that many who throw in the towel never get to appreciate. Love, real true love can conquer all. Our story isn't the same as this one, but we've ended up in the same place, together. So many could learn a lesson from this movie if they would but hear it.
An unpredictable romantic comedy! I loved it.! September 1, 2008

The story is classic comedy when bad things happen to good people. You just have to say "OUCH!" with every hit as you laugh at the funny way fate works our lives despite our best plans.
 Movie Room Reviews Chaos Theory Starring Ryan Reynolds June 19, 2008

Frank Allen (Ryan Reynolds) is about to give away his daughter Jesse in marriage. Before he does, however, the anal, overly organized father feels he must impart some words of wisdom to his soon-to-be son-in-law, Ed (Mike Erwin).
Frank's wisdom plays out over the course of the movie Chaos Theory as he shares a dramatic tale of the ups and downs of his own marriage experience. As the story begins, Frank and his buddy, Buddy (Stuart Townsend) are fighting over the same girl, Susan Allen (Emily Mortimer). Susan chooses to be with Frank and the two get married and have a daughter. Jesse is seven at the beginning of the movie.
When Frank leaves for a lecture, his highly structured existence is screwed up when Susan intends to set the clock ahead 10 minutes as a joke, but instead sets it behind. Frank ends up late for a lecture about time management. Following the lecture, Frank is approached by the beautiful Paula Crowe (Sarah Chalke), who was at the lecture. After several drinks and seductive compliments, Paula works her way into Frank's room. Susan calls to check in and Frank immediately runs out to return home.
On his way home, Frank (driving drunk) runs a pregnant woman off the road. Although attempting to do a good deed by helping her to the hospital, Frank actually sets off a chain reaction of events that lead to tale of love, forgiveness, and chaos. This move is extremely thoughtful and charming. Reynolds is one of our favorite actors and is brilliant as he portrays his character during multiple points in his life. Emily Mortimer is also excellent in her role as the sought after leading lady, wife, and mother. Her emotional acting is excellent. This story is a good romantic comedy that should not scare guys away, as it offers some very `manly' comedic relief.

Great Twists, Ryan Reynolds at his Best June 19, 2008

This film contains several great twists and displays a truly talented side of Ryan Reynolds in which I would like to see more of. The soundtrack was excellent, paring the right music at the right moment and pulling you into the character's anguish. The only thing keeping me from giving this film five stars was the beginning of the movie. It didn't hook me until about 25 minutes in, and then I wished it didn't end. The supporting cast was excellent, and Reynolds' character brings an appropriate amount of comic relief mixed with his unraveling.
