Movie Friday "No Strings Attached"

Choose " No Strings Attached" over "The Dilemma" based on "Moviephone" Apps which were both rated "Maybe".  "No Strings Attached stars Adam (Ashton Kutcher) and Oscar nominee Natalie Portman playing Emma and old summer camp acquaintance. Movie starts off with summer camp get together and proceeds in steps thru college Michigan (nice plug) to chance encounters up to current year. Emma is a Doctor who works at a local hospital and has her core group of close friends and roomates.  Adam is an aspiring writer looking for a break while working on a TV show.  Adam's father Alvin (Kevin Kline) is a twice divorced wealthy TV producer who now lives with Adam's ex-girl friend who is very flaky. By the way Kline is in great shape for being sixty three years old.  Both Adam and Emma have the hots for each other and agree to have a purely physical relationship until each find out that the attraction is turning in to more than expected.  Adam confides first to Emma and she gets scared and runs away from Adam.  The movie has some very funny scenes especially when Adam visits Emma and her roomates, two girls and a gay guy who are going through that time of the month together.  The crowd that viewed movie with me was 30-60 in age and were all laughing at several points throughout the movie. Beside the already mentioned scene another quite funny one was when Adam awoke after a drinking binge in an unfamiliar apartment naked on the couch wondering what happened.  Final note rapper Ludacris (Wallace) plays Adam's bar owner friend and he's not bad. The acting by Kutcher and Portman is decent but nothing special about this one. Still a good comedy movie to see for laughs with friends. Rated 3.0/5.0
