adonis98-743-186503 A political consultant tries to explain his impending divorce and past relationships to his 11-year-old daughter. Definitely, Maybe is 2008 Romantic, Comedy, Drama starring Ryan Reynolds, Rachel Weisz, Elizabeth Banks, Abigail Breslin, Isla Fisher and Kevin Kline. This is a film that although i've heard before i never actually saw until today of course and personally i loved it especially the father and daughter relationship between Will and Maya and both Reynolds alongside Breslin had a great chemistry together and it was so sweet and touching plus it's so heartwarming how he tells all those stories of the 3 women that he loved the most and how he met Maya's mother and to get there we have some twists and turns and it actually surprised me for a movie of this kind. Kline also shows up as a book writer named Hampton Roth and he does a really good job as well he is pretty funny actually. The movie is also touching but also smart and intelligent when it wants to be and it balances everything quite well and if you love any of this actors or just Reynolds you're really going to enjoy this film.
sukuru_hiro I had no expectations with this movie at all. I thought this was just your typical cheesy finding-the-right-one movie but it wasn't. Definitely, maybe, you could say truly a 'maybe' story because of the complexities of the protagonist's love life along with his ever inquisitive daughter brought mainly by the influences from school. At first, you could see a father whose intention was to answer the question of his daughter regarding her mother's identity through a fairy tale-like manner just to be apt, mysterious and enticing for her. Along the series of story-telling, you would say that it was certainly Emily but after a moment, you got confused because of another tie with some other significant girls. With that sense, the delivery was just so clever that you would be dragged and forced to finish the movie with satisfaction of the pacing.As for the romance side, it was reasonable. Will was just a guy capable of being hurt and moving on; that it's hard to get into another relationship when you still have lingering feelings with the break- up but you need to move on for the sake of your own happiness. He has reasons why he ended with multiple girls. The women involved had their own aspects that you could love and hate as viewer. Much to say, the run or building up of the romance was so realistic and frank. Nevertheless, he truly ended up with the right one.Also, the political side added some wittiness among the colloquialism of the characters.I couldn't say in detail the entirety of the movie but it is definitely a recommended movie. You will love, laugh, be warmed, confused, hurt and satisfied with the conveyance of the story. So, see it for yourself.
Sanjhbati M Definitely, Maybe is a 2008 romantic comedy film directed by Adam Brooks, and starring Ryan Reynolds, Isla Fisher, Rachel Weisz, Elizabeth Banks, Abigail Breslin and Kevin Kline. IMDb gives it 7.2. According to Rotten Tomato it scored 72% A love triangle. Its about a good boy haunting for love. A political consultant tries to explain his impending divorce and past relationships to his 11- year-old daughter. And see what happen next. Ten-year-old Maya (Abigail Breslin) is heartbroken to see her parents splitting up, but she's determined to find out precisely how it was that mom and dad came together in the first place. When Maya starts questioning her father Will (Ryan Reynolds) about his life before marriage, dad's memories soon drift back to the time when, as a naïve Wisconsin native and aspiring politician hoping to work on the presidential election, he first arrived in New York City. As Will gradually became savvy to the ways of the big city, he gradually developed romantic relationships with three very different women: Emily (Elizabeth Banks) was the girl-next-door that he could always depend on, apolitical April (Isla Fisher) was the best friend and confidante who was always there to listen, and free-spirited journalist Summer (Rachel Weisz) was both beautiful and ambitious. In order to prevent his perceptive little girl from predicting the outcome before his story is told, Will carefully changes the names of his three romantic interests, creating a hopelessly romantic puzzle that highlights both the joys and hardships of true love. Dun forget to watch out Abigail Kathleen Breslin's acting (an American actress. She is one of the youngest actresses ever to be nominated for an Academy Award )
Chris L Definitely, Maybe starts off pretty well, it's fresh, very dynamic and even though it is quite the classic rom com, you still get carried away.Then, the rhythm drops, the movie becomes less incisive, more conformist and it gradually runs out of steam until completely running in circles during the last very dispensable half hour.This movie clearly should have been shorter since it is quite boring around the end, the final outcomes takes too long to come.Definitely, Maybe, though similar to countless rom coms, still is enjoyable overall and to his credit, it is sincere, accurate and well embodied by a rather flawless cast.
