The music video made the song grow on me a lot.

I enjoyed it but that car accident scene was a little disturbing. And he needs to stop acting. Just saying...

Yes, cause I hold my jacket over my shoulder when I find my partner cheating on me.
Anyway, meh video. Love the song though.

I also really liked the video, but it was a bit disturbing in some ways...

Video is good, I just don't love it for the song. On one hand I appreciate going left field and unexpected with it--and executing it really well--but I just don't think the vibe and sound of the song can hold up to the weight of the video.
Also, unsurprisingly, this has grown on me tremendously.

That was actually a really well-made video and the song has definitely grown on me.

..oh.
First. He needs to fucking stop ruining the videos for their first singles. Stop acting. I beg you. Second. So he's a douchebag now? Oookay, good impression. Third. I'm still recovering...

That was a good video. A little unexpected at the direction of the music video, but still a good video and a good song.

I'm guessing the people that are saying he is a bad actor are going to see Begin Again.

I think the video is good despite Adam. The song is infectious...following, following, following.
But I've gone from being a big fan of Adams to just not caring for him. I think he needs to take a break from The Voice because I think that's what has started to lessen the appeal.

I think the video is brilliant. Doesn't fit the song 100% but I like the artistic concept and vision. Kudos to the director. Adam acts well when he isn't speaking (lol), but I don't think the spoken lines were all that bad. Hope the video helps sell the song

I think it's funny how negative a lot of these comments are regarding Adam. He really hasn't changed as a person to me, just I guess the thing (The Voice) that made people love him more than ever is starting to work against him. He still sexy though, lol, and still makes catchy pop tunes.

I like what I've heard from Maroon 5, but recently their songs have started to blend together to my ears...they all sound too similar.

If you listen to every single they've ever released, they're technically less diverse than Nickelback. (It's true, but I know how I'm gonna get alot of hate for this post anyways ) But then again, so are 3 Doors Down, Matchbox Twenty, OneRepublic, and Train, and I love all of the bands mentioned in this post.

I tuned in my pop station (DC) after several months to check what they're playing. And they played Maps right after Am I Wrong. Oh no! It really sounded like a second-rate copy of that song I like Maps but that listening experience reduced my enjoyment of the song. It's like listening to Roar after Brave.

I like the video too. I'm surprised that this song was picked as the first single. It isn't terrible but doesn't seem to have the sort of umph you expect from first singles.

His acting seems so unnatural. It's too exaggerated - more like stage acting than something that should be on film where it doesn't need to be exaggerated.
But, the video was very different but I liked it. I found myself caring a lot more about the video than the song.
And I really enjoy the song... can't wait to hear what else is in store, though this doesn't at all sound like a lead single.

Adam needs to stop attempting acting. He can't act. Just stop.

This still isn't my favorite and they have released so much better, but I don't hate this anymore. I hated it when I first heard it but it has grown on me substantially.
I like the video, but like others have pointed out, Adam can't act lol.
