Runtime: 110 minutes
Comedy/romance

Sex comedy and Ashton Kutcher — the two elements in any movie that hint you are about to waste 100 minutes of your life.

Thankfully the presence of Natalie Portman means No Strings Attached is not a complete dud, but it isn’t new or packed with laughs.

Portman plays Emma, who decides to embark upon a strictly sex relationship with Adam, a long-time friend. But can they be just friends with benefits? What do you think? This comedy quickly falls into dull predictability.

The dialogue is cheesy and sleazy and Portman and Kutcher have little chemistry.

Watch if you liked: Just Married, Knocked Up.
