Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
Micitype Pretty Good
Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
cricketbat A standard romantic comedy (complete with obligatory ending chase scene), but the reason it gets the extra half a star is because of some hilarious moments and one-liners with Ashton Kutcher. Not a great movie, but a fun one to watch.
Davis P This Cameron Diaz/Ashton Kutcher romantic comedy really just isn't too good. It's not all that entertaining or funny, which really is the most important thing with movies like this, if a film like this isn't amusing or funny then there is nothing else to make it good. The lackluster writing and jokes that fall flat is very unfortunate because I think that the premise to the movie is interesting and has some actual potential to create a funny movie people can have a good time with, but instead of trying to make it humorous and enjoyable, they phoned it in. Cameron Diaz's acting is actually decent, she isn't bad, it's just that she isn't really given much to do. Ashton Kutcher has never been one of my favorites, and that didn't change after seeing this film. I don't know why some people have said in the past that he's charming in films, I don't find anything really charming or attractive about him, especially not in this movie. He plays a very crude disgusting guy here. Standing on the kitchen counter-top, unzipping his pants and pissing in the sink..... Oh and then opening his sweat pants and dumping a bowl of popcorn in his crotch. If that is what this movie thinks is funny then you know you're in trouble. The only saving grace this movie had was Cameron Diaz, she is cute and sweet in a lot of scenes and that is good to see, but the humor is so non-existent and Kutcher's character is so unlikable. 4/10.
Terryfan Despite some bad rap this film is not really bad it just needs to be watch to understand.What Happens In Vegas centers around Joy McNally (Played by Cameron Diaz) who travels to Las Vegas after being dumped by her fiancé Mason (Played by Jason Sudeikis) with her best friend Tipper (Played by Tipper)Where the same time Jack Fuller (Played by Ashton Kuctcher) and Hater (Played by Rob Corddy) his best friend and Lawyer after Jack was fired by his boss/father Jack Fuller Sr (Played by Treat Williams). Unaware Joy and Jack ended up in the same room and end up after a one night stand getting married and when Jack used her quarter to win 3 million dollars. The Judge order them to make their marriage or they will never seen a dime of the money.Which of course leads up to a series of events in the marriage. Now the story is interesting and in a way original considering plus they have several creative humor in the film which makes you roll on the floor laughing and find yourself repeating.Ashton and Cameron make for a interesting on screen couple through out the film and they do very well with making us laugh. Lake makes for a interesting best friend as does Rob.The songs used in the film work as well as it helps the story in terms of story telling. The film is just not a classic but it is not a bad one either it is just one you have to watch to understand.It has a original plot with some good performance from Ashton and Cameron so if you're curious give it a try.I give What Happens In Vegas an 7 out of 10
phoenix 2 The main idea behind the movie is simple : two people find themselves in Las Vegas, during a difficult period of their lives- Jack has lost his job and Joy has broken up with her fiancé. By a big coincidence they meet and after a night of drinking and parting they wake up married. They decide that morning to end the marriage, however at the same time the with 3 million dollars. At court a few days later the judge decides that in order to take the money they must remain married for six months. The problem is that they can't stand each other. The plot is interesting and funny, with not many twists however. The couple doesn't convince that they belong with each other and the love that develops between them happens all of a sudden and in the end mainly. The supporting roles are funny and interesting though. All in all, an entertaining movie, with lots of laugher but the romance seem to ruin the whole thing. PS the soundtrack is very good.
