This is what happens when there's poor communication in the film industry... the same film gets made - twice!

NO STRINGS ATTACHED or FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS
Interestingly, the the race is hotting up between the 'two just friends having sex' films. The first to be released, and my guess, the weaker of the two, NO STRINGS ATTACHED has just released a 'raunchy' (is that word too daggy to use in 2011??) trailer. I have seen this one and gave a quick rundown on my thoughts here last week. WARNING If you are under 18, please get written permission from your parents prior to screening this trailer!!!!
In this comedy, Emma (Natalie Portman) and Adam (Ashton Kutcher) are life-long friends who almost ruin everything by having sex one morning. In order to protect their friendship, they make a pact to keep their relationship strictly “no strings attached.” “No strings” means no jealousy, no expectations, no fighting, no flowers, no baby voices. It means they can do whatever they want, whenever they want, in whatever public place they want, as long as they don’t fall in love. The questions become – Can you have sex without love getting in the way? And can their friendship survive?

Nat's knocked up!!!
Natalie Portman and her boy, Benjamin Millepied (the name does make me giggle!!) who was her choreographer on BLACK SWAN have announced that not only are they engaged, but NAtalie is pregnant as well. I do love me some Nat, she has shown amzing promise since I first saw her in The Professional and then in Beautiful Girls and I have been a fan ever since. However I do have a sad story to tell. On Friday I saw her latest venture NO STRINGS ATTACHED with Ashton Kutcher, and to be honest, it's pretty ordinary. It will be interesting to compare it with the other film of the same theme FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS starring Justin Timberlake, Mila Kunis and Emma Stone etc written by Will Gluck who so superbly penned EASY A. NO STRINGS ATTACHED felt very try hard, was badly scripted and to be honest a little bit too crude unnecessarily! Anyway will be interested to hear what others thing when it comes out. I myself am looking very forward to NAtalie's other project BLACK SWAN which is gaining some Oscar momentum!
