Movie Review: No Strings Attached

Warning: May contain spoilers. You've been warned.

You know what's funny? After an actor has a movie where they play a gay character, they push out a extremely heterosexual movie right afterwards to redeem themselves. After Heath and Jake did their thing in Brokeback Mountain they both starred in Casanova and Jarhead, respectively. Now, Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis each have a movie come out that actually had the same title at one point. Natalie came out with this one and in a month, Mila will be releasing Friends With Benefits starring her and Justin Timberlake. Hmm… I just find it interesting.

Moving on.

Before you blow this off as another lame romantic comedy, remember that this is rated R and is 100% about sex. That means that this is real. There's no fluffy bullshit, just realness. It was kind of a mix between The Ugly Truth and Knocked Up.

I'm not that big of a fan of Ashton Kutcher, but he was somewhat enjoyable in this movie. Natalie though, was amazing. It was really interesting to see her in a romantic comedy. She's a lot like Leonardo DiCaprio where she typically only does movies that are serious and dramatic. So I just found it interesting.

I definitely recommend this movie. It really is funny.
