Two young, single people who decide on a sex-only relationship, Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis keep going on about how phoney Hollywood romantic comedies always are, but Friends With Benefits is hardly a radical alternative.

It's got the customary song-packed soundtrack, the idealised New York setting, the gay confidant and the eccentric relatives. The only novelty is the aren't-we-cool smugness.
