Any opportunity to see Justin Timberlake especially on the big screen is a chance I'll take, so it wasn't hard to get me to buy a ticket for this; "He's Just Not That In to You" styled Romcom. His co-star is one Mila Kunis who looks a lot more fun and less fiendish than when I last saw her on Black Swan.... Well mainly less fiendish.
This film needs no tagline as the title is essentially the plot.
Mila Kunis plays wide eyed Jamie (Pun intended), a Executive Recruiter who is recruited to recruit Art Directer Dylan (Timberlake). Dylan currently works for a small internet company but the people at GQ want him to come and work for them and its Jamies job to convince him its the right move to make. If he's successful he will have to up and relocate from Los Angles to New York, it must not be much of a choice cause he soon relents to the move on a trail basis.
Time goes on and as Jamie just so happens to be the only person Dylan knows after a few weeks in a city filled with roughly 8million people.... one thing leads to another. A semi drunk evening as friends leads to an evening of being naked friends doing naked things. Suffice to say its an awkward morning after as Jamie and Dylan do the avoiding dance with each other. They soon however talk it out and decide to let it happen again, so naturally it happens again. If it didn't the movie would have to be called "One Night Stand"
Throw in a bit of family drama on both sides, neither of which is necessarily believable or sympathetic but without them they'd have to cut the word "Friends" from the title. This movie was a comic relief from from all the serious movies that are out right now.
The nudity wasn't over the top - but I still wouldn't see it with anyone other than a close friend - and the jokes we're memorable enough for you to laugh all over again when discussing it.
I guess all that's left to say is that every movie has it's benefits and for me in this case it was Timberlake all.....all of Timberlake.
