Friends With Benefits (2011)

109 min, comedy, romance

Director: Will Gluck
Writers: Keith Merryman , David A. Newman
Stars: Mila Kunis, Justin Timberlake and Patricia Clarkson

Storyline:
While trying to avoid the clichés of Hollywood romantic comedies, Dylan and Jamie soon discover however that adding the act of sex to their friendship does lead to complications.

Review:
It's just like any other romcom; boy meets girl, they hit it of, somebody mess it up, and in the end they end up together. But, there is something about "Friends With Benefits" that makes me like it more than other romcom movies. First, what I didn't like is small roles of Jenna Elfman and Woody Harrelsson, who are really funny actors and could have been better used in this one. Expecialy Woddy as a gay sports editor. What I did like is a the story, which is much better then "No String Attached" (which has the same premise), Timberlake and Kunis have good chemistry through all the movie, some funny moments and all in all a good movie. It's not your tipical love story and that's what makes it worth watching.

Rating: 7/10
