Most helpful review Friends with Benefits

  • Run-of-the-mill romantic comedy, with fluff and feelgood aplenty. It's OK.

    Rated - 3.0 stars

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    My wife and I just watched this movie and it's typical of those movies that don't make you think you've wasted your rental cost------nor does it pretend to be anything other than it is : watchable without being very good or memorable.

    I've seen a few Timberlake films now , and he is not bad.

    Mila Kunis, his co-star---I've never seen before---is gorgeous.

    I won't forget HER :) I can't believe that her Hispanic good looks belie the fact that she has a Ukranian background (nothing against the no-doubt admirable Ukraine, but I don't imagine all its female citizens to look like Mila).

    The plot is a tired one but old storylines can often be made to last forever in hundreds or even thousands of films, so I do not mind too much about the lack of originality.

    This is an adult romantic comedy. It is neither good nor bad.

    It does what it intends to do and watch it if you like the genre or if you are in the mood for light entertainment.

    This film is quite predictable but,on the other hand it has a sweet storyline and some bits of the film can shock you in a wonderful way. You will love it!

    I enjoyed this film especially Jamie, Mila's character: she's smart, sexy and brilliant. JT was ok but Woody Harrelson steals the show as the sports editor. Yes, it's obvious how this film is going to end but al is good.

    This is a honey sweet rather than saccarin sweet Rom Com with no unpleasant aftertaste! Wasn't sure this was going to be any good but was curious to see Justin Timberlake act. Not dissapointed. Mila Kunis also has a strong screen presence and the two have great chemistry. A fun, easy and charming Rom Com.

    My girlfriend saw this at the cinema, and thought I'd enjoy it despite it's chick-flick status - and to be honest, she was right. It didn't leave me feeling like I'd wasted a rental opportunity, and I did laugh in places. A light hearted look at a circumstance that isn't uncommon...
