The film is about Jamie (Mila Kunis) and Dylan (Justin Timberlake) who meet in New York after Jamie offers Dylan a job at GQ magazine. Their friendship soon develops into one with benefits, as time goes on their feelings for one another start to grow but neither can admit it. Kunis and Timberlake have some of the best on-screen chemistry I've seen in a while, they complement each other perfectly. Its smartly written and perfectly cast, director Will Gluck previously did the sarcastic and hilarious Easy A, although Friends with benefits doesn't have the comedic edge, the relationship between Jamie and Dylan is enough to see this film. Woody Harrelson also stars as Dylan's gay co-worker, who doesn't stop to take a breath when it comes to comedy. I'm not that big a fan of Justin Timberlake as an actor, from what I've seen of him in interviews he's very funny and easy going, but his acting has only recently seen the light of A-list worthiness. He's quick with a joke and dopey like the dwarf, bringing genuine breeze to the role that seems to be made for him.
