Genre – Comedy, Romance
Rating – 7/10
When I first came across this film I was encouraged to watch it because Natalie Portman was one of the protagonists who I had come to admire since watching ‘Black Swan’ where she really showed the true extent of her acting skills.
Plot Outline
The film revolves around Adam, played by Ashton Kutcher, and Emma, played by Natalie Portman. Adam and Emma meet and have a relationship entirely based on sex. They come to this arrangement because Emma works in a hospital which therefore means she works long hours and does not have time for a relationship. Also Emma has commitment issues which were developed from the death of her father and strongly believes that she will not get hurt if she is not in a relationship. Adam is in this relationship because he really likes Emma and at the end of the day sex is sex.
Their relationship is going well until Adam starts to fall in love with Emma which results in her getting scared and ending their so called relationship. They both try and move on resulting in Emma not being able to cope without Adam. But will she her commitment issues get in the way of her happiness?
Overall a very entertaining film with some funny moments. The acting of both of the protagonists contributes vastly to the style and the comedy aspect of the film which also results in the audience being drawn in and encouraged to watch on. The acting skills also allows for character development to occur throughout the film which allows most audiences to relate to the characters. A down-to-earth comedy which focuses on relationship issues that many people face depending on their careers and experiences. Generally entertaining and a great watch for a night in.
