I gave it a 2.This simply sucks for a movie.It drags on far too long and the dialogue and characters are dull as beans.Ashton sucks as a lead and the story doesn't help.Totally unrealistic.Totally uninteresting and a waste of my download on netflix.I'm glad that this came as a monthly package in my bill and that I didn't have to actually pay for this.How I long for real plots and stories that actually entertain.

This film is about two sex friends who, slowly but surely, develop feelings for each other.Considering the cast and the big budget, "No Strings Attached" is very disappointing. The two leads are very attractive, but they have little chemistry with each other. Maybe it's to do with the nature of their initial relationship, they do not have any sparks with each other, and hence their subsequent feelings seem so forced and unrealistic. There is little comedy either, the whole plot is plainly delivered. With nothing much to laugh about, no romance to savour, "No Strings Attached" becomes a lacklustre bore.

The main reason this movie isn't good is that their is too little chemistry between Asthon and Natalie. Physically he is too big for her. In terms of persona they are too incompatible as well. They look like they could never hook up in real life.Natalie Portman isn't right for romantic comedies. She has a pretty face but since her body is so small she has very little sex appeal required for a romantic lead. Ashton was never a good actor but here he looked even goofier than usual. It wasn't charming just amateurish.Kevin Kline is miscast and his performance is painful. I don't understand how this movie was such a hit at the box office.
