Funny, enjoyable and a bit of a turn around of the standard guy doesn't want commitment flick. In this case, it's the woman, Natalie Portman, shying away from anything other than quick, no strings attached, casual sex.
Natalie Portman does a wonderful job with this character and she raises the quality level of those other actors in the film. Yes, even Ashton Kutcher actually acts in this film. Well, perhaps not all the way through - his performance improves throughout and he ends the film well. Olivier he's not, but he is better here than in all of his other films (combined).
Well written and very well directed. Even given the free wheeling sexual nature of the film, there is nary a skin shot, except for Kutcher's butt early in the film; yet, somehow the passion and sexual trysts are totally believable.
This is not an award winning piece for Portman (unlike Black Swan); still, she does bring a level of class to the film.
Well worth a trip to the theater for a couple of hours of fun and laughter.
