It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

I usually like most movies, but have to say this one was really a dog. The acting was very high school,, although the supporting characters weren't bad. The whole premise of the movie is a bad joke - and it's all been done before. Really - getting drunk and marrying a stranger in Vegas? Been done before. Not funny the millionth time. Then there was all the little jokes, like her showing him how to keep the toilet seat in the down position.. Again, done before a million times on bad television shows. And the entire premise of the judge ordering them to live together as man and wife.?? yes,, done before. It's the same premise as the Jerry Seinfeld show when Jerry got his own TV show based on the premise that he is in a car accident and the judge sentences the guy to be his butler. Every joke in this movie is old. Wow.

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

WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGASI watched the movie first in the cinema when it first came out.The movie is about a man and a woman who meet in Vegas and get very drunk and get married. But just as they agreed that the wedding should be annulled, he wins a lot of money. She then decides that as they are married she is entitled to half... but a judge disagrees and makes them live as husband and wife to earn the cash.It is a cheesy comedy that has some good moments and some bad moments.The story is quite good, but this is a romantic comedy so just like all romcoms, the first 2 thirds of the movie is very good, but the final part is just mushy dribble.The movie stars Ashton Kutcher and Cameron Diaz. They are both completely over the top in this movie. I am not overly impressed with either of them as actors. I think Cameron can be funny, but generally just annoying. Ashton is not very funny, but can be entertaining at times. He was quite funny in this though.There were a lot of predictable moments in this film. There wasn't anything really original in there. I did like the way they fought each other throughout... I think that is was made this film as entertaining as it was.There are a lot of romantic comedies out there and sometimes I wish there would be some more original stories, but it seems that if you are making a film like this, there is a typical formula that you have to stick to.This film is good, it is funny, it is entertaining, but it is not the best. There are a lot more comedies out there that are a lot better.I will give this film 6 out of 10."I just wanna junk-punch him in his man business."For more reviews, please like my Facebook page:https://www.facebook.com/pages/Ordinary-Person-Movie- Reviews/456572047728204?ref=hl

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.
