Friends With Benefits

Comedy
4 stars
Funny, witty and charming; much better than I expected. Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis (Black Swan) attempt to take the emotion out of a relationship and just be sex-buddies. The plot is stolen from No Strings Attached, but is put together much better - plus I like the actors better in this film. Excellent supporting cast includes the magnificent Richard Jenkins as JT’s Dad, the talented Patricia Clarkson as Kunis’s Mom, as well as Jenna Elfman, that little kid from “Modern Family” plus “The Flying Tomato”: Olympian Shaun White. Very good.
