I should have this to you tomorrow JAGUAR  20:48, 9 September 2015 (UTC)

Initial comments

• "The plot revolves around Dylan (Timberlake) and Jamie (Kunis)" - the character's surnames should be included here
• I don't feel the need for the "Credits adapted from AllMovie" notice in the credits section. Usually credits sections don't need to be sourced, so you can ditch this quote and leave the source in?
• "Will Gluck stated that the concept" - Will Gluck is already linked
• Can the music section's prose be expanded it all? If it's not possible then don't worry, usually the GA criteria is relaxed for production details on films (video games are entirely different)

• Well, the soundtrack is not original. I did try find some info on production or soundtrack review; however, nada.

• "The site's consensus reads, "Friends with Benefits adds nothing new to its well-worn rom-com formula, but the chemistry between Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis is almost enough to carry the movie by itself."" - I don't think the quote here is necessary, unless the consensus was given by an actual critic then it's unusual for quotes to be pulled from an aggregate website?
• "Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times gave the film three-star" - stars
• The Home media section is far too short and needs to be merged with something else
• "He further added that "love addiction ending in "happily ever after" is not a great message." - the middle quotations need to be in single quotes

References

• No dead links

On hold

I don't know why this didn't pass last time, but this is an excellent article. It is well written, comprehensive and well referenced. Once all of the above are clarified you can have a GA JAGUAR  16:48, 10 September 2015 (UTC)

Thanks Jaguar, all done. Well, the reviewer found it "too short" to pass it. I gave it a little expansion; the themes section, which is not even needed for GA. -- Frankie _talk 17:29, 10 September 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for addressing them! This should be good to go now JAGUAR  18:32, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
