What Happens In Vegas

1 comment May 10th, 2008

 Cameron Diaz and Ashton Kutcher haven’t been in many movies lately, but this movie is a definite hit for all Diaz and Kutcher fans. Their fun, silly personalities add some refreshing excitement to an otherwise predictable script.

 This movie begins while alternating between the contrasting lives of Diaz and Kutcher in New York City. After circumstances, they both decide to take a much-needed trip to Sin City, a.k.a. Las Vegas. After a hotel mix-up of being scheduled in the same room, they finally decide to spend the night together. But once alcohol and partying get involved, Diaz wakes up the next day only to find herself married!  They quickly begin arguing and discover they couldn’t be more different. However, just before they plan to leave and file for divorce, Kutcher puts Diaz’s quarter in a slot machine and ends up winning the prize of three million dollars! They go to court to decide who should get the money, but the judge rules that he will hold the money until they attempt to make their marriage work. Six months of living together and weekly therapy sessions begin miserably, but then…well, we’re pretty sure you know how it turns out.

 Nonetheless, this movie was delightfully entertaining. We hadn’t seen Kutcher acting in his post-being married to Demi Moore (I know we’re still devastated, too) days, but luckily he hasn’t lost his charm.

 We really enjoyed this movie, and so did the rest of our theater for that matter. The theater was filled with constant laughs and everyone walked out with a smile on their faces. We recommend seeing this if you’re in the mood for a comical movie that isn’t too serious - a perfect Friday movie after a long week!
