The film has dreamy cinematography and a pretty whimsical plot that takes viewers on a fantastic journey through the challenges of love and the quest to discover oneself.

Just Friends – 2005

Chris (played by Ryan Reynolds) had a very difficult time growing up. He was overweight and constantly bullied by others. What made matters worse was that he was in love with Jamie (played by Amy Smart), his best friend, who was in love with him too but only in a friendly way.

 

Fast forward 10 years and Chris is successful, thin and is dating a popular singer (played by Anna Faris). When the new Chris’s plans to take his girlfriend Samantha to Paris fall through, he takes her to his hometown instead where he runs into Jamie. It doesn’t take him much time (in fact a few hours) to fall in love with his former crush again. It’s a hilarious romantic comedy that will leave you in splits till the last scene, provided you like your humor a little crude!
