  The grip of Hollywood touches all of us these days and trying to avoid its love sick romances is even harder to do but Dylan and Jamie find themselves trying to do just that in this spunky love story. With each of them having their own tussle with relationships, they push themselves to the end of their ropes forcing them to become unavailable.
  Jamie, is a head hunter who by fate meets Dylan while trying to place him for a job at GQ. Both realizing that they are sex deprived, they extend a helping hand to simply ease a bit of tension.  Testing the bounds of a "friends with benefits" relationship proves to unveil their real feelings for one another and allowed for me to laugh my buns off.
 Discovering how many ways they are more a like than different takes on a funny yet not sappy ride of unraveling love. Prepare yourself to laugh out loud and to see tons of nakedness by both parties.
  Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis keep the jokes flowing with ease and seem to have wonderful on screen chemistry.  Not one for the kiddos to watch but would be an awesome date movie!  I laughed the whole way through.
