Just Friends(2005)
Actors: Ryan Reynolds, Amy Smart,Anna Faris
Director: Roger Kumble
It all began in high school when Chris fell in love with the most popular girl in school, Jamie Palomino. Unfortunately for him, he was friend zoned after he confessed his true feelings for Jamie in the school yearbook only to be completely rejected. He felt like a loser and he thought it couldn't get any worse but the word quickly spread about his fascination and he was cruelly mocked, he fled his hometown in shame in the hope that he will transform himself.
10 years later, he is a hugely successful record producer in Los Angeles working with A-list clients like Samantha James, played by Anna Farris, who is the biggest pop star in the world but has the most self absorbed attitude. Her songs have very little meaning as shown below.
Against all odds when he was traveling to another destination with Samantha his plane had to make an emergency stop in his hometown in New Jersey due to a fire that took place on the plane. Samantha wasn't aware that putting plastic in the microwave can quickly lead to a fire. Samantha is on a whole other level of crazy!
Chris unwillingly stays in his home where he grew up in with Samantha. His mother is delighted to be reunited with his son after such a long time of not seeing him in the comforts of her home. He bumps into figures of his past that he had loved and others he loathed. His mother is delighted to have him staying in the house.
He went to the local bar only to meet Jamie as the bartender. She was embarrassed to see him there as she wanted to show her best self seeing the new and improved Chris. Chris begins to feel the same rush of feelings he felt once before for Jamie.
Will he pursue Jamie or will they always remain "Just friends"?
