as most comedies, this one starts out a bit slow for about the first roughly 20min, but once it gets going, mila kunis and justin timberlake take the movie into their own hands and make you laugh, even though the plot is very predictable, this movie holds enough humor to make you want to see the end of it. its the classic tale of two friends who end up turning their relationship into more than they expected. all in all a pretty good film, i feel as though they could have found someone a little better than timberlake to play his character but mila kunis played the role perfectly.

I felt the supporting cast was better than the leads. Stone, Harrelson and Elfman had a few parts, but was really good. Had some dull and very cheesy Hollywood type scenes. Timberlake's character wasn't funny nor charming, at least Mila Kunis' character was interesting. Soundtrack wasn't that inviting, especially the version of my favorite band's song Boy's Don't Cry. A few things I enjoyed were the cinematography, camera angles and unique script. Yawned a few times, very predictable yet worth a look.

I couldn't wait to see this movie and it didn't disappoint. I thought it was really good and while I had also enjoyed No Strings Attached, that came out a few months before with the same concept, I thought Friends with Benefits was much better.

Gotta admit, it was kinda weird hearing Timberlake's character describe his own butthole. lol. And, it was weird in many other places in the story as well. The plot was kinda what I had expected it to be. So, I guess the movie was alright.
