Movie synopsis

Cameron Diaz and Ashton Kutcher star as strangers who wake up a married couple after a crazy night in Las Vegas in director Tom Vaughn's (STARTER FOR 10) feature film. Joy (Diaz) is the type of woman who makes plans to make plans. She's expecting a marriage proposal, but her live-in boyfriend, Mason (Jason Sudeikis), has other ideas. When he dumps her, Joy heads to Vegas to forget her troubles with her friend Tipper (Lake Bell) and discovers her fun, spontaneous side. Unfortunately, she also wakes up with recently unemployed Jack (Kutcher) as her husband. The two quickly decide to divorce, but the plot thickens when Jack wins a $3 million slot jackpot using Joy's quarter. Since neither one of them wants to give up the cash, they each try to drive the other to file for divorce and give up the bounty. But love has a funny way of appearing when you least expect it, and in acting their worst, Joy and Jack actually bring out the best in each other.Diaz and Kutcher have nice onscreen chemistry and make a very photogenic couple. Treat Williams stars as Jack's difficult-to-please father, while Rob Corddry is Jack's best friend, Hater. Queen Latifah and Dennis Miller appear briefly as a marriage counselor and divorce court judge, respectively. The Vegas scenes are flashy and fun--just like Sin City--and the settings for the New York City scenes differentiate nicely between Joy's organized, structured life and Jack's less serious, happy-go-lucky attitude.

Movie trailer and editorial reviews

"Ashton Kutcher and Cameron Diaz hate on each with dynamic verve in WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS..."
Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman (05/16/2008)

"The relationship between Kutcher and Diaz radiates with both sexual and comic chemistry, and is reminiscent of the bickering couples in 1930s and 1940s screwball comedies..."
Sight and Sound - Rebecca Davies (07/01/2008)

What a Great Movie

Created: 05/10/10
Very Funny Movie. I already liked these actors so when I saw they came together to make this movie, I couldn't resist.

The two main chacters get layed off and dumped so they run off to Vegas to take their mind off of their recent disappointments only to get drunk and get married to each other. When they come to their senses the next morning, the agree only to have the guy hit a jackpot for 3 million before they part. They soon find themselves in divorce court seeking an anulment and their half of the money when the court orders them to move in with each other for six months to try and make their marriage work, but instead both man and wife are out to sabatage the marriage to get the other to leave. This halarious romantic comedy will have you laughing on the floor!!!

Loved It!

Created: 01/12/08
A new twist on a soon to be classic love story..Film opens with a handsome young man being fired by his own Father in an attempt to force him to grow up..on the flip side of the coin there is a beautiful, but clingy young Woman struggling to fit in with her intended..feeling smothered he breaks off their engagement in the middle of a special party (unknown to him) planned for his Birthday..hurt and angry she decides to take a vacation in Vegas..back to the first side of the coin..the immature young man also takes a trip to Vegas and there their destiny is mapped out..Viewers get a true treat as these two lonely people are thrown together in a comical situation..most would kill for!! Viewers will get to watch this great romantic roller coaster ride play out..not for anyone under the age of 17..I give this movie 5 out of 5 bars!!

GREAT MOVIE!!!!

Created: 06/09/08
This is a perfect movie!! Ashton and Cameron make the perfect couple to play this heartfelt and comedy all in one. This would make a great bridal shower movie and every married couple should watch this movie!!!!! My husband and I watched it together and it was wonderfully funny and romantic! It's not too romantic for men, so I recommend it to everyone!

Predictable, but Enjoyable

Created: 16/08/08
All you have to do is watch the trailer for this movie and you know generally how it's going to pan out. And even while watching it, it's pretty predictable.

However, in saying that, it certainly had its moments. Ashton Kutcher plays the usual role, Cameron Diaz looks good and acts bad as always, Rob Corddry is hilarious in a secondary role as Kutcher's bumbling lawyer friend and the very attractive Lake Bell provides some more wit as Diaz best friend.

Overall, it definitely exceeded my expectations and I enjoyed the majority of it (with the exception of a few, forced sappy moments).

Better than expected

Created: 02/10/09
The title doesn't really say it! You might think this just doesn't have a lot of substance to it; it's about Vegas, right? However, it ends up being a good movie, just like the couple who are married to get to split the winnings end up liking each other enough that neither one thinks the money is the most important thing. Instead it is the realization that they actually love each other. It's one you will watch again.
