Justin Timberlake & Mila Kunis agree to a sex-only friendship, but the inevitable happens. A film like this depends on clever writing and good chemistry and this one has both. There are plenty of funny lines and some enjoyable supporting characters (loose mom Patrician Clarkson and big gay jock Woody Harrelson), but it’s the electricity between Timberlake and Kunis that gives it that extra spark. Interesting: JT is sans clothes in many scenes, while Mila remains modest (nary a nipple). While there’s nothing exceptional about this movie, it’s an entertaining and enjoyable summer hit.

GAY ANGLE: Justin in incredible shape and showing it off A LOT, plus Harrelson’s unabashed gay jock is wonderful.

Jerry Williams reviewed movies for WTVR-TV for 14 years and for Style Weekly for 10 years. When he launched his own website in 1998 at TVJerry.com, he took his reviews to the Internet. Through those hundreds of reviews, Jerry kept his sexual orientation muted. So, he's excited to be adding "gay angles" to his postings for GayRVA.com.
