When he returned to his old homeland, Chris was only supposed to accompany the less talented pop star Samantha to Europe, but the stopover in New Jersey exposes old wounds: Jamie is as beautiful as ever, but Chris' proven macho behavior comes from his old childhood sweetheart not at all.

criticism
- “ Cheeky, romantic and completely crazy. A secret comedy tip ... " (picture)
- “ Lively slapstick with really funny actors. " (Cinema)
- “ Romantic slapstick comedy that is perfect for a cozy evening at the cinema. " (Bravo Girl)
- “ As a quirky, romantic comedy with the perfect leading actor trio Reynolds-Smart-Faris, 'Just Friends' has a tearful laugh guarantee. " (King Magazine)
- “ Great punchlines, brisk slapstick and a pinch of romance - 'Just Friends' does everything right. " (King Magazine)
- “ An all too harmless comedy that struggled with speed and suffered from the underdeveloped script and the pale leading actor. " ( Lexicon of International Films )
- “ One of the typical relationship comedy that has nothing to offer besides silly sayings, a few young stars and the story that has already been shot a thousand times. This just shows once again that Americans obviously absolutely need gags from the faecal area in order to have fun in the cinema with popcorn and cola. "And" Irrelevant " [1]
