\"\"<\/a>1. No Strings Attached (Paramount, 3,018 Theaters, 110 Minutes, Rated R):<\/strong> I don’t know about you, but when I look at this film, it strikes me as it is above Ashton Kutcher’s usual fare and quite a bit below Natalie Portman’s (an actress who apparently looking to over take Michael Caine as the hardest working actor\/actress in film. This is just one of about 500 films she has been or will be in within the last 24 months).<\/p>\n

This film does come with a pedigree. It was originally called Fuckbuddies<\/strong> and the script by Elizabeth Meriwether was ranked #5 on the 2008 Black List of worth reading unproduced scripts. It was then renamed Friends With Benefits<\/strong>, but that name had to change when the producers realized there was a similarly themed film with that name starring Justin Timberlake and Portman’s Black Swan<\/strong> sparring partner Mila Kunis in the works.<\/p>\n

The trailer had some laughs in it, but mostly from the supporting characters. That really isn’t as good a sign as you might think it is.<\/p>\n
