Review – No Strings Attached

My wife and I opted to watch this movie a day after learning of a death affecting someone close to us, figuring that a romantic comedy would be about as far as we could get from killing, horror or anything else not in keeping with the situation. So naturally in the first ten minutes the characters end up at a funeral. That notwithstanding, this is pretty much exactly what you’d expect from an Ivan Reitman picture in which Natalie Portman and Ashton Kutcher play a couple who start a relationship of sexual convenience that ends up emotionally complicated. Mildly amusing
