Chaos Theory (2007)

.
"Don't forget it's chaos out there. We conquer that by taking control, setting priorities. Life cannot be based on whim. Those who fail to control whim are destined to be controlled by it."

Efficiency expert Frank Allen (Ryan Reynolds) lives every moment of his life by the lists and index cards he writes out. When his wife Susan (Emily Mortimer) tries to do a good deed by setting the clock ahead so he'd have a few more minutes before he has to leave for an important lecture, she accidentally sets the clock behind, this making Frank late catching the 8 a.m. ferry he needs to be on.

This sets poor Frank on a disastrous course for the rest of the day and for many days to come as he learns about himself and the value of his family.

Also appearing is Stuart Townsend as Frank's best old pal, Buddy.

Directed by Marcos Siega.

Run time: 1 hour, 27 minutes

Rated PG-13 for mature thematic material, sexual content and language.
