What Happens in Vegas
After the wildest party night of their lives, two mismatched strangers, Jack (Ashton Kutcher) and Joy (Cameron Diaz), wake up in Vegas to discover they not only got lucky - they got married! The road to annulment take a hilarious turn after Jack wins a three-million-dollar jackpot while playing Joy's quarter and a no-nonsense judge (Dennis Miller) sentences them to six months "hard marriage". What follows is an all-out war of the sexes as Jack and Joy go to outrageous lengths to try and cheat each other out of the money. But in the end, they may learn that when you gamble on love, you just might win, against all odds!

I was pleasantly surprised with What Happens in Vegas. The story follows two strangers who come together winning a jackpot in Vegas and, in a wild move, also find themselves married. Rather than dissolve the marriage, the judge wants them to try to stick it out.
What follows is a clash of opposites and, in that regard the movie is pretty standard. The plot is typical romantic comedy material. What I felt makes it work is the interaction between the characters. There was some good chemistry here and amusing dialogue. I felt like the movie got off its romantic comedy leash just long enough to entertain, before getting yanked back into the standard plot.
Fun and good as romantic comedies go, but nothing really ground breaking.You bet on me - blissful_muse07
There were alot of funny scenes and the movie had alot of heart. It was predictable but a number of romantic comedies tend to aim that way. Aston and Cameron work really well together on-screen. Can't forget Rob Corddry and his rival in the film Tipper played by Lake Bell who was just hilarious, and Dennis Miller who had a small yet memorable performance as Judge Whopper! Oddest part in the whole thing for me was hearing the beginning of Flashdance's: What a Feeling. I never thought the first "husband and wife" dance could get away with a song like that, but it was thrown in and I liked it.
