Author Topic: Friends with Benefits (2011) Sam Graham AKA: "The Evil Sam Graham". Wackiness ensues. Posts: 1431 From: Waukee, IA Registered: Dec 2004 posted 07-23-2011 05:04 PM                        CINEMA: Megaplex 20 at The District, South Jordan, UT AUDITORIUM: 12 PRESENTATION: Dolby Digital Cinema DLP PRESENTATION PROBLEMS: Soft, slightly out of focus picture RATING: Two and one half stars (out of four) What. I was bored. THE PLOT: A girl over-thinks things. Wackiness ensues. You know those Sony Ericsson XPERIA phones? You know...the ones three people care about, and all of them live in Europe? In cold European countries? Yeah, those. Ever wonder what they did with all the handsets nobody bought? They apparently gave them to this movie production. Every phone in the movie is one of these, and they're all showcased. As if that's going to help sales. The two reasons to see this are: Woody Harrelson, as the obnoxious gay male sidekick (he makes sure this movie actually is a comedy), and lots of Mila Kunas in her underwear. Actually, Kunis and Timberlake are both pretty good here. Timberlake finds far too many excuses to sing, though.  |  IP: Logged
