I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Very well executed
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
A lovely movie for precision freaks! It is the story of a time- management speaker and his life story especially of that phase where he discovers, the hard way, that life isn't a planned schedule. It takes its own turns and twists. The lead character, played well by Ryan Reynolds, through a bizarre chaotic string of events learns the strength of love, over and above his precise calculations and plans. One of the concluding dialogues sums it all: "The most important thing about love is that we choose to give it and we choose to receive it making it the least random act in the universe. It transcends blood, it transcends betrayal and all the dirt and makes us human."The best parts of the movie that I liked are the ones where the confusion begins, him being seduced by a participant, ending up in a hospital helping a pregnant woman deliver a baby (and then she disappears), the wife getting a call about 'her' baby. The scene where he discovers that he has been sterile all his life (and mind you, he has an adorable daughter of seven), is quite amusing and touching at the same time. The conversation in the boat with his best friend trying to save him from committing suicide, while he actually is trying to shoot him is hilarious!http://www.vcastilino.blogspot.in/
Chaos theory is romantic comedy film. But when ı heard its name, ı thought that it is a science-fiction film and it is about chaos. Ryan Reynolds and Emily Mortimer acted on it. This film start with wedding ceremony of Jenny and Ed. Ed has not decided yet getting married. So Frank (Ryan Reynolds) who is Jesse's father talks with him and tells Ed his story. This story is about Frank whose life is turned into chaos by an accidental revelation. Frank and Susan (Emily Mortimer) are married and they have a daughter who is seven years old. Everything is getting better. One day their life is changed because of helping pregnant woman. Susan misapprehend Frank and she thinks Frank cheats her. Frank tries to proof not cheating her. In this way, he learns that he is sterile. Everything changed. He learnt that Jesse's real father who is Susan and Frank' s best friend Buddy (Stuart Townsend) and he plans to kill him. I don't tell what will happen next. You watch and see it. Some part of movie is comedy and it makes you laugh but some part of movie is romantic and it makes you sad. I think its plot is attractive and impressive. You could not know what will happen next. Even though everything is getting better, suddenly your life is complicated.The end of Frank' s story is really impressive, Jesse is not his biological father but he come back for their family. I like parts of movie that Frank write to cards what he do and randomly choose one of them. And he do what he picks up. Another things which makes me impressive is Frank's relationship with his daughter. This movie shows that love and forgiveness are important for our life. I really like this movie.
We make our own plans for life and we manage our life according to these plans. We sometimes apportion months, days or even hours. While Frank thinks that he manage the perfect life, he finds himself in a separate game. The life of Frank, who living the life of a highly planned and programmed, goes up and down as a result of be taken forward his clock so to speak. He missed the boat for 15 minutes and changes the course of his life. After his wife abandoned him and he learned new facts, completely changed course of events. After these events, he thinks that the cause of all of them is related to live in planned and programmed. He start to live a life which the opposite of his previous life. He turned into a man who never wanted to be. Some points may be familiar to you. Actually some people can find something himself or herself in this film. On the other hand, I want to talk about a negative character of Frank Allen. His wife deceived him with his close friend; she did not say that she was sterile. Although Frank learned these events, he remained indifferent all things. In my opinion, in this point we can say that Frank is completely imaginary. Because I think neither male nor female does not remain indifferent. It is a serious problem for their marriage. Nobody accept and keep quiet in the face of situation like this. It is unacceptable for our people. You think maybe I'm too narrow-minded, I don' know but it is my truth. My favorite part in chaos theory is to write what he will do in the next on stickers and to choose one of them randomly and just do it without thinking of about outcome.
Frank Allen (Ryan Reynolds) who makes new lists every day lives his life with a planned program. One Christmas, he goes out with his friends, Susan (Emily Mortimer), Buddy (Stuart Townsend). That day, Susan tells her friends she wants to marry and will choose the bridge groom among her friends. At any rate, everybody is admired her. However, she considers Frank who wants her since they met with each other. Finally, they got married and had a daughter whose name is Jesse. By the way, with putting the clock back, Frank's life becomes too much complicated. He misses the ferry. While he is driving is car, he crashes a pregnant woman's car. And he has to carry her to the hospital. Susan who misunderstands this situation, argues with Frank. Therefore, he takes DNA test in order to prove that the pregnant woman's baby is not him. Yet, he learns that he is infertile. Any more, he has a deepening crisis and doesn't know what he will do. Will he forgive or leave Susan? Firstly, I must say that after 'just friends', Ryan's movie which I laugh so much is 'chaos theory'. In my opinion, the scenario is really different from the daily life events. It is very funny besides this, it successfully includes emotional and full of love scenes emphasizing the power of love despite lie, deceiving or betraying. But, there is the only part which I don't like is the final scene about "happily ever after ". I think, being obsessed with happy end causes absolutely simplicity although the topic is fascinating. Maybe, the final part can be more surprising. As well, if I were Frank, I couldn't forgive Susan. Of course everybody says lots of white lie. It is almost inevitable. But deceiving somebody about an important topic is unacceptable. Anyway, chaos theory is really successful romantic comedy. My vote is 8!
