Review of Friends with Benefits (2011) by Jenny X — 15 Oct 2013
It's alright.
I just don't think Justin Timberlake should be in movies. He just isn't very good, and it just takes me out of a film when he starts singing.
But it didn't ruin the movie for me. It has a sweet charm to it, although there are some scenes that play on jokes far too long, that were never funny in the first place.
Cue 'Shaun White'. The killer of comedy in a scene.
Look. It's quite simple. The film is an easy watch, that tries too hard in some cases, but when it's funny it works, but it's a bit forced in the beginning, and wobbles its way through, but as a whole it holds together enough to get a positive score.
It's alright.
