Review - No Strings Attached

The movie "No Strings Attached" is a story about a female doctor (Natalie Portman) who doesn't believe in relationships and falling in love. As a doctor Emma Franklin(Portman) works long hours, her schedule is crazy, and she really only wants to have someone to have sex with. Her and her friend Adam(Ashton Kutcher) start sleeping together with the premise that there is no emotions or love involved. Before long Adam develops feelings and starts to fall for his friend Emma. Their once pure sexual relationship begins to fall apart, and Emma pushes Adam away not wanting to give into her own emotions, but soon realizes her mistake, and attempts to win him back before it is too late.

Natalie Portman and Ashton Kutcher together in this film is a winning combination. Their chemistry is fantastic, and they balanced the the scale between drama and humor nicely. Kevin Kline who plays the character of Adams father in the movie also added quite a few laughs himself. I sat down to watch the film and it was over way too soon. I am not usually a big fan of the romantic comedy genre, but this film truly brings something special to the table.
