Definitely, Maybe: This charming romantic comedy, similar to "How I Met Your Mother," features a delightful performance from Reynolds.

A father in his 30s, who is going through a divorce, is asked by his ten-year-old daughter about his life before he got married.

The Proposal: After trying out various genres and experiencing some flops, Reynolds returned to comedy and succeeded at the box office with "The Proposal," starring alongside Sandra Bullock.

The plot isn’t groundbreaking—a tough boss convinces her employee to marry her to keep her citizenship, and they eventually fall in love—but the chemistry between the leads makes it surprisingly funny.

Just Friends: He plays Chris Brander, a once-overweight nerd turned superstar who returns to his hometown to win over his childhood crush, Jamie (played by Amy Smart).

However, Jamie had friend-zoned him years ago, and now he has to overcome various challenges to win her heart. Plus, he’s juggling taking care of a pop star (played by Anna Faris) and dealing with old bullies.

The Croods: Reynolds lends his voice to DreamWorks’ animated film "The Croods," playing Guy, a lone traveler who joins an eccentric cave-dwelling family as they navigate a dangerous, ever-changing landscape.

In the prehistoric era, Grug and his family face the dangers of their environment as they search for a new home. During their journey, they encounter a modern boy whose adventurous spirit impresses them.

Buried: Ryan Reynolds is outstanding in Rodrigo Cortes’ "Buried," a thriller about Paul Conroy, who wakes up in a coffin underground with only a cell phone to try to get rescued.

After being attacked by a group of Iraqis, a truck driver ends up trapped in a buried coffin. Using only a cell phone and a lighter, he must find a way to escape before time runs out.

Deadpool: Deadpool is the film that truly showcases Ryan Reynolds’ talents.

He was born to play the Merc with the Mouth, and despite a rocky start with the character in "X-Men Origins: Wolverine," the final result was worth it.

Safe House: Safe House, directed by Daniel Espinosa, has its flaws, but it’s saved by the star power of Denzel Washington and Ryan Reynolds.

Washington plays Tobin Frost, a rogue former operative with crucial data, who turns himself in at the American consulate. He ends up at a safe house run by Matt Weston (Reynolds), which is attacked by mercenaries. Frost and Weston escape and must uncover who’s behind the attack.

Van Wilder: Ignore the harsh reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. "Van Wilder" is a fun, endlessly quotable early 2000s comedy, perfect for a late-night watch.

Reynolds stars as Van Wilder, a laid-back college student trying to keep his carefree lifestyle after his parents cut him off financially.
