April 15, 2009It won't be on anybody's 10-best list at the end of the year. But it's agreeable and engaging and real enough in the right smallish ways, and it has an emotional maturity at odds with the high-grade plastic from which it's constructed. That being said, it's all been done before, ...( read more)

March 15, 2009A sweet romantic comedy/drama which is well written and well acted. Ryan Reynolds fits his part perfectly and the female leads are strong and enjoyable. Abigail Breslin is adorable, smart and witty as usual. An enjoyable film....

November 15, 2009Fell in love with ryan reynolds in this movie. Thought it was very touching. It's not on my favorites but there's something about this movie that gives comfort to me. It's definitely one of those movies that I could watch over and over again.

A.O. Scott, The New York Times
Definitely, Maybe, written and directed by Adam Brooks, is a nimble and winning little romance.

Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer
A romantic comedy with brains as well as heart, Definitely, Maybe is that rare studio release that feels like it was written by a human being, not by committee. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
To sum up, Definitely, Maybe is crap with compensations. full review

Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times
There's really nothing terribly wrong with Definitely, Maybe, but there's nothing strikingly right about it, either; it's as good as it needs to be, and no more. It'll do in a Valentine's Day pinch, u... full review

It could use some editing toward the conclusion, but it's generally enjoyable, amusing and more sophisticated than most films in this genre. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
Definitely, Maybe proves that there are still innovative ways to tell the oldest story of all, the one about two people falling in love. full review

Nick Schager, Slant Magazine
All the performances are fine, yet they're fine mainly because there's almost nothing in the script to severely botch, so safe, rote, and mildly soporific are the proceedings. full review

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
As the movie is about a character's growing into his own truth rather than discovering some preordained truth, Definitely, Maybe is hard to outguess. For once in a romantic comedy you won't be able to... full review
