Reviews for What Happens in Vegas
It's less obnoxious than Fool's Gold, less forced than Made of Honor and less formulaic (well, by a sliver, anyway) than 27 Dresses.
05/15/08
What Happens in Vegas is a sorrow attempt at a romantic comedy. So let the saying stand What happens in Vegas, should stay in Vegas.
05/14/08
Ultimately, What Happens in Vegas resembles a drunken night in Sin City; when it's over, you don't really remember what happened except that it wasn't good.
05/14/08
Diaz and Kutcher restore the original, ebullient meaning of 'sex comedy'. They’re fun to watch, which is a rare thing in this Zellweger, Clooney, Kidman, Gosling, Apatow world.
05/14/08
This film is not the equivalent of brain surgery, but it is entertaining.
05/13/08
If you can ignore some rather silly moments and focus on the credible relationship between Jack and Joy, this will be reasonably entertaining.
05/13/08
isn't the end-all, be-all of comedies this year but it's got some good laughs.
05/13/08
If What Happens in Vegas serves any purpose, it’s to make me consider spending my gambling money in Reno or on a riverboat instead.

Two fresh stars elevate the material into solid entertainment
05/12/08
Middling and forgettable.
05/12/08
The screenplay is awful, the direction is bland and the performances are beyond redemption.
05/12/08
Top CriticThe formula is too contrived and the chemistry not enough for any genuine sparks to fly
05/12/08
Kutcher has talent and potential. It has been his misfortune to attach his star to people who aren't up to the quality of his talent. He has time to correct this, but the clock is ticking.
05/11/08
I can't recommend it as a must-see date night getaway, neither will I discourage audiences looking for a little bit of mindless rom-com fun. And given the likable nature of the film's two stars, this trip to "Vegas" coasts by on just enough charm to make
05/11/08
What should have stayed in Vegas is this movie.
05/11/08
The colorful second bananas' bawdy badinage turns out to be a lot funnier than that of the co-stars who have little more to offer than their looks and sexual chemistry going for them.
05/11/08
A movie that just seems to be going through the motions, a thoroughly uninspired rehash of a formula done far better elsewhere.
05/11/08
Lucky for viewers, it's easy to laugh while watching this romantic comedy, mostly because of the comic skills Kutcher and Diaz bring to their performances.
05/10/08
Not the sin some claim it to be.
