Consensus: There are moments of mirth in this overly broad comedy, but mostly, Just Friends is just not that funny.
Reviews for Just Friends
The film feels just a few degrees left of sanity.

One day, Ryan Reynolds will land in a film that makes full use of his talent for conveying quiet, wide-eyed mischievousness.

Reynolds and especially the charming Smart give the movie the kind of heart one would not expect...
12/02/05
With Reynolds mugging and rolling his eyes from coast to coast, this friendly teen frolic doesn't need enemies.
12/01/05
Despite a few bone-tickling moments, the romantic comedy Just Friends is, well, just OK.
12/01/05
Just Friends is neither fish nor fowl, though foul it is.
12/01/05
Just Friends is just stupid.
11/29/05
Maybe in this case, Chris and Jamie just being friends wasn't such a bad idea.
11/28/05
Just Friends is part Farrelly Brothers and part Romy and Michele's High School Reunion, all wrapped together to deliver gross-out gags in bizarrely random and rapid-fire fashion, with zero intent to develop sustainable plot or character.
11/28/05
Just Friends hangs its crude, clobbering sense of humor on a dubious theory.
11/28/05
Top CriticThis is a stupid comedy and you'll probably be embarrassed by how much you laugh.
11/28/05
The best thing about Just Friends is that it never pretends to be anything other than a crass, unsophisticated youth comedy.
11/28/05
... while the ending might be a foregone conclusion, getting there involves just enough slapstick manful idiocy to keep the humor moving at a clip.
11/28/05
A barbed romantic comedy with a distinct debt to the Farrelly brothers' gross-out-plus-sentimentality formula, Just Friends is a welcome antidote to the usual seasonal sweetness.
11/28/05
[M]ost of the attempts at humor are painfully unfunny.
