No strings attached has no USP

Rating: 5/10 (14 February 2011)

I will not waste time on the plot.....everybody knows it.....can friends with benefits stay without falling in love???? we also know how the movie will end as is true for most movies in this genre.
What however makes predictable plots click is the characters and the humor. However no strings attached lacks memorable characters or memorable moments. Most characters are stereotypical. We see ashton kutcher doing what he does All THE TIME these days i. e play a love sick puppy while natalie portmen stars as his "commitment phobic" sex friend. Yes we understand that for too long the guy was commitment phobic however that is no reason for every rom com movie to portray a commitment phobic girl thinking that its different. Its not anymore.
There is some chemistry between the leads (esp the first time they hook up) but that alone is not enough to save you from yawning and waiting for the intermission.
The supporting characters are all blah except for......no wait they are all BLAAAAAAAAH
I would only recommend this movie for people who wanto take a quick nap in the theater
