Ryan Reynolds has come a long way since 'Van Wilder'. After some dodgy role choices (think 'Just Friends', 'Blade Trinity'), he's finally living up to his 2003 Young Hollywood Award for Next Generation Male. We'll see him flex his muscles in the upcoming 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine' but 'Definitely, Maybe' gives him a more sensitive and vulnerable role in a movie that's terrific fun and hugely entertaining.

Reynolds plays Will Hayes, a young father who is in the throes of getting divorced. His 11-year old daughter Maya, (Abigail Breslin) after having a 'birds and the bees' talk at school, begins questioning Will on his past and how he met her mom. In a series of flashbacks we're introduced to three women — all of whom have their names changed by Will so that Maya (and us, of course) can guess who turns out to be mommy.

There's "Emily" (Elizabeth Banks), Will's high-school sweetheart; the bubbly, free-spirited "April" (the delightful Isla Fischer — Borat's baby-mama nogal); and "Summer" the hard core journalist (Rachel Weisz). Kevin Kline has the time of his life in an outrageous cameo role worth the admission price alone.

'Definitely, Maybe' finally proves that all rom-coms need not be lightweight which, let's face it, they usually are. This isn't the usual boy meets girl, boy can't stand girl, girl can't stand boy but we all know they're meant for each other 'cos they're just so impossibly beautiful. This is genuinely romantic, sparkling and clever with fantastic, intelligent dialogue. The humour is subtle and, although the core theme is divorce, it's not sentimental and heavy handed. The director, Adam Brooks gets it just right.

This isn't the usual chick flick fodder, take your man to 'Definitely, Maybe' — it's told from the man's perspective so he'll enjoy it too. What's not to love? There's nothing 'Maybe' about it — go see it. Definitely.
