ive seen both movies, and i gotta say that friends with bennefits is better in every way, it is funnier, smarter, and the soundtrack is amazing on top of it, whereas no strings attached is just too cheesey and the characters just dont have as much chemistry.

The TV spots and trailers have me really excited to see Friends With Benefits - the riffing between Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis is reallly hilarious, although I hope they didn't just pull out all the funny parts for the ads... I especially liked the spot that had "Love In America" by JTX, I love the playful synth lines, hope I hear the song in the actual movie, too ( watch at http://vimeo.com/26184095 )

It's funny why the directors decided to release these movies at almost the same time when they have more or less the same plot. If I were to choose, I think I'd pick out Ashton and Natalie. But I think that Friends With Benefits have more funny moments than No Strings Attached. I'm thinking of watching one of these movies with my long distance boyfriend (http://www.longdistancerelationshipsadvice.net).

#4 I agree - will be interesting to see the difference between how a female directs a film on this subject and a male.

Justin Timberlake ruins movies. He's not charming on screen and he's one of those people who has a big head because a couple of people told him he was funny.

I love that its Ashton kutcher and Mila kunis from that's 70's show.

Mila kunis over postman any day. Friends is soooo much better- if you can't decide which one to watch

i think it is so funny how Mila Kunis and Natalie Portman just came out in the same movie and now are coming out with their own movies about the same thing...there's gotta be some kinda of connection....

It will be interesting to see how both stories unfold as one is written by a a female "No Strings Attached" and "Friends with Benefits"s is written by a male. Same story line from each gender I think I will like No Strings better because the female will have the upper hand...I'm sure than men will like Friends better because the male will have the upper hand.

Hi all-look, before Justin & Mila & Ashton & Natalie, the indie world did it first with a terrific young cast out of New York. FRIENDS (WITH BENEFITS) went on to win tons of awards at film festivals around the country. Check it out. Oh, and if you watch closely you'll catch the cameo of the hot young actress currently working on her dragon tattoo... http://www.babelgum.com/4024119/friends-with-benefits.html

here's another distinction - one stupid; the others stupider (that's right; I said "stupider" - that's how stupid not only the concepts of both these movies are but, even worse, the concept of the identical concepts and releasing them at the same time). although I think "Friends with Benefits" actually looks like it could have some funny moments (maybe because I find Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake much more likable that Natalie Portman and Ashton Kutcher)...
