Friends with Benefits

The film, which works off this seemingly simple premise, sparkles because of the onscreen chemistry between Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis. Their unpretentious and brutally honest banter is not only an entertaining pleasure to watch, it is refreshing take from sickening sweet nothings and cheesy doe-eye moments of Rom-coms. Jamie (Mila Kunis) is a fast talking and smoking hot New York headhunter who becomes fast friends with her successful Californian prospect Dylan (Justin Timberlake). Friends to best friends, these two make a pact to be bedroom buddies. Sex without emotional attachment, convenience without commitment, unadulterated pleasure without love, none of which coexist between friends, much less best friends. The term "no strings attached" is really just an idealistic expression, isn't it?
