Critiques:
"The result isn't just the best new romantic comedy released so far this year, but one of the best comedies, period." Mike Scott, New Orleans Times-Picayune
"It works because Timberlake and Kunis are totally in control of their damaged characters without winking at the audience, as if to say: "Aren't we cute, behaving so naughty?" Their sex is amusingly awkward, and their repressed longings more so. It's the kind of chemistry that comes along once in a generation." Steve Persall, Tampa Bay Times
"Goes a long way in bringing sexy back to a soggy genre, benefiting greatly from the presence of its likable leads." Michael Rechtshaffen, The Hollywood Reporter
"Even with all their huffing and puffing, this very salty, often funny affair is never quite as satisfying as it should be." Betsy Sharkey, Los Angeles Times
