If you were putting together a cast for a movie about relationships, betrayal, and the ever-changing drama that envelops our lives nowadays, you'd need two gorgeous people who are capable of acting, and two method actors that clean up better than you would have imagined.

Enter Jude Law, Julia Roberts, Clive Owen, and Natalie Portman. One of the most ridiculous casts ever put together (outdone by maybe Ocean's Eleven), and a bunch of really good looking people who can just flat out act. In fact, Natalie Portman tries to look ugly at the beginning of the movie, and somehow Jude Law is seen looking at her with Damien Rice singing "I can't take my eyes off of you" in the background. Julia Roberts is her beautiful self throughout, but perhaps the most surprising performance in the whole movie is that of Clive Owen's. I didn't even know who he was when I first watched this movie (although he has gained a bit more fame since), but I instantly found him to be my favorite character. Strong, passionate, and with a cool accent make him the most interesting piece in this movie, and ultimately established him as one of the better actors of our day in my mind. 

If you're looking for a happy-go-lucky love story this movie is not for you. But if you're looking for a crazy, completely conceivable movie that will remind you of relationships of your own or your friends', then this movie might just be the most interesting watch you'll have for a while. And the eye candy isn't that bad, either.

Who doesn't love Ashton Kutcher? If you've ever seen That 70's Show (I mean, if you haven't, you're missing out), Punk'd, Dude Where's My Car?, or even What Happens in Vegas, you have inevitably at some point laughed at one of his antics. And for those of you who don't know who Natalie Portman is or have no idea as to her acting genius, feel free to check out Closer (Jude Law, Clive Owen, and Julia Roberts are also in it). Yes, I'm talking about No Strings Attached, the newest Chic Flick in a long line of nauseatingly cute yet undoubtedly entertaining romantic comedies. If you like other movies in this genre, this is a must-see. Ashton and Natalie's onscreen chemistry is unmistakable, and the characters they are playing are both believable and relatable. You'll find  yourself laughing at them one second, then slowly realizing that what just happened applies to your life as well. 

The story of course is nothing spectacular, and you're assured a happy ending almost before you get through the trailer for the movie. However, like I said, if this genre is your cup of tea, then consider this one of the most pungent and delightful cups you've had in recent years. No Strings Attached will keep you smiling and nodding all the way through, and you'll leave the movie theater (or your couch) thoroughly entertained and wanting someone to love.
