Skip it unless you're in the mood for a by-the-numbers romantic comedy that mistakes cynicism for depth. The 'friends with benefits' premise had potential, but this film plays it safe with predictable beats and relies heavily on Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis's charm to paper over a thin script.
Plot
Dylan is done with relationships. Jamie decides to stop buying into the Hollywood clichés of true love. When the two become friends they decide to try something new and take advantage of their mutual attraction - but without any emotional attachment.
Director: Will Gluck
Cast: Justin Timberlake, Mila Kunis, Jenna Elfman, Patricia Clarkson, Woody Harrelson
