No Strings Attached (2011)


This is not a great movie by any stretch, but it is watchable - mainly due to Natalie P and Ashton K. They are good together, and Natalie is particularly great. I've always thought of her as too high-brow for a silly rom-com, but she was awesome. She was dirty and bawdy and sweet; the best part of the movie.

The movie itself had too many side stories and side characters. It could NOT figure out if it wanted to be a farce, a comedy or a drama. Certain scenes that took a lot of screen time fell absolutely flat and seemed dropped in from a different movie. The name is stupid and I will never remember it (like Total Recall - what a bad movie title).

Kevin Kline is in this, and he was great, though his dialog was bizarre. He looks fantastic, but he's getting old, which means I'm getting old. Shit.
