I’ve been on a bit of a Mila Kunis movie run lately with Ted, Oz and this little diddy. The title, Friends With Benefits says it all. Jamie (Mila Kunis) and Dylan (Justin Timberlake) are twenty something professionals who have better careers than relationships. The two meet through work, Jamie is a recruiter and gets Dylan to come cross country for a job in NYC. The quickly become friends and after lamenting about their love lives and how sex throws useless complications in, they decide to hook up with no strings attached.

There is a scene near the beginning where the two are watching a fictional Hollywood rom com and Dylan bitches about all the cliches. So of course, this rom com can’t avoid many of those cliches in its run. It’s a pretty predictable movie right down to the timing. The friendship turns into something else, they have a lot of fun together and the personal baggage each brings eventually pushes them apart. Cue regret, a dance number and a happy ending. Now there is some funny stuff in there, as I said before I love Mila Kunis and she does her part well and Justin Timberlake is…Justin Timberlake. He’s not a bad actor, he’s just JT all the time.

While Friends with Benefits does nothing new, it’s a good rom com.
