FILM Sex Tape Cameron Diaz and Jason Segel had impressive chemistry in the big-screen comedy Bad Teacher (2011), and the two reunite for another Jake Kasdan outing: Sex Tape. The studio describes it thus: “When Jay and Annie first got together, their romantic connection was intense – but 10 years and two kids later, the flame of their love needs a spark.

It seems like a great idea – until they discover that their most private video is no longer private.” (July 18) Maggie Wrobel
