Just Friends (12)

May 13 2006 By Graham Young, Birmingham Mail

JUST Friends is a comedy about a former fat guy - who wonders if the girl who rejected him in his teens will have a different point of view now that he's a big cheese in the record industry ten years on.

A workmanlike movie with soft spots and the odd laugh, Just Friends is mildly enjoyable but instantly forgettable.

Canadian Ryan Reynolds (Chris) and Jamie Palamino (Amy Smart) lead the cast and the DVD extras include 11 behind the scenes featurettes and five deleted scenes.
