Predictable but fun & entertaining...

Rating: 7/10 (22 September 2011)

It was obvious from the trailer that this was going to be a fun movie to watch! JT has a lot of humour in his acting and Mila Kunis is good in any movie, I think...
Friend with Benefits is as predictable as any romantic-comedy though. They meet, they get on, they fall out, they declare their love for each other and live happily ever after. At least I knew what I was in for! I enjoyed watching how the fun on-screen relationship between JT and Mila progressed, from meeting in the airport to being 'FwB' and on from there. There were other amusing roles around them too, with Dylan's sister and her son. Also, Dylan's father who has Alzheimers likes to walk around with no pants on. Then there's Jamie's mother who is a bit wild and comes and goes throughout the movie.
My favourite part was probably when Dylan finally tells Jamie how he really feels in a very extravagant way. It was a bit cliché but makes you smile. And a good song choice too! Overall, I think it is worth a watch if you're in the mood for a funny, sexy comedic romance. And if you don't want to pay to watch then it's a must when it shows on TV! 7/10 for me - could've been better but for the predictable story.
