Moviejournal: love and other drugs, senna, black swam, friends with benefits

Friends with benefits and love and other drugs are the two latest rom com I watched in the last month. Both are sassy and good. Timberlake surprisingly is a more appealing actor of the two male leads, portraying an new age art director quite fittingly, having acted well for the previous vc role in another dot com era masterpiece the social network. Kunis is also much well rounded, sensual and in touch than the wide eyed Hathaway.

Love and other drugs has a thought provoking plot involving the heavy backdrop of an up and coming Viagra salesman who loves to fuck and unscrupulous in his dealings, versus and sinking parkinsons patient who care less about life as she worsen. The ending is such a cliche it defeats the whole purpose of the film. Sad. They could have broken up and randomly met on the street and end there. Have to háček a happy ending is so annoying.
