Synopsis: Juggling slapstick comedy with witty dialogue and youthful romance, JUST MARRIED provides an entertaining and optimistic glimpse at young relationships and the struggle to stay in love in a world... Juggling slapstick comedy with witty dialogue and youthful romance, JUST MARRIED provides an entertaining and optimistic glimpse at young relationships and the struggle to stay in love in a world where everything goes wrong. A chance encounter on a beach brings Tom (Ashton Kutcher, DUDE, WHERE'S MY CAR?) and Sarah (Brittany Murphy, 8 MILE) into each other's lives. They quickly fall in love and agree to get married. Although Sarah's wealthy family does not approve of their daughter's fiancé, Tom and Sarah believe they can sustain themselves on love, and so they take the matrimonial plunge. As soon as they are married, however, things start to unravel--first in their newlywed suite, next on the airplane to their honeymoon in Italy, then in the five-star Hotel Du Rêve in France. Pretty soon the couple is living out a hellish version of Murphy's Law, and divorce begins to look hilariously ominous. When Sarah's old flame shows up at their hotel in Venice to cause further trouble, Tom responds with a jealous outburst that lands the newlyweds in jail. Tom and Sarah survive their misadventures long enough to face the ultimate test of their marriage vows, when each reveals a secret that threatens to spoil their relationship entirely. [More]

In need of a script doctor, stronger direction, and a different leading man. Except for those minor shortcomings, it’s not half bad.

As predictable as they come, but Murphy and Kutcher help move things along smoothly. They generate a breezy give-and-take that transforms nicely from infatuation into glaring hatred.

Rubbery-faced Kutcher is a nice match for Murphy, and their chemistry keeps the movie afloat even when the gags stretch thin.

Murphy has no comic timing and Kutcher overcompensates.

The film's insistence that these two kids belong together for eternity should persuade only the credulous and unmarried. (I give them six months, personally.)

Resorts to pratfalls and other familiar bits that, while occasionally funny, somehow make it all just a little too formulaic to really lock on.

An ungainly and witless comedy.

Depois de bombardear o mundo com o péssimo Sonho de Campeão, o roteirista Sam Harper levou dez anos até conseguir ver este seu novo trabalho chegar às telonas. Ele deveria ter esperado mais vinte anos.

There’s something sweetly endearing about this mildly funny little newlywed endeavor.

In two years this flick will be running endlessly on Comedy Central, but if you're craving a mindless romantic comedy before then, Married makes a decent matinee.

There are some movies that are good, there are some movies that are bad, and there are some movies that are made tolerable simply because the stars seem to be having fun. Just Married is all three.
