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]

Yes, it's as bad as it looks.

A veritable orgy of strained physical gags, inane vulgarity and poor comic timing.

This film ... thinks it's being cute when in fact it's being exceedingly irritating.

Brittany Murphy and Ashton (Dude, Where's My Car?) Kutcher plunge themselves into this potentially sludgy material ... with such game energy and velocity, they actually whip it into something frothy and fun.

...is falling down inherently funny when the person doing it isn't a physical actor/comedian? Nope.

While not bad enough to warrant a divorce, Just Married isn't the fun or funny union that it might have been.

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.

It takes a number of awkward running steps at the beginning and then founders irrevocably midway through.

Every time Murphy and Kutcher lift Married above the youth-comedy cesspit, Sam Harper's script inserts a gratuitous pratfall or gaseous gag, sending the whole thing spiralling downwards.

A few laughs here and there, but not many of them grow out of the characters, who don't make much sense.

The reality that Just Married reaffirms is not that of life, but of the glossy dumbness of what passes for comedy in big-studio circles.

A romantic comedy that sets itself the difficult task of being simultaneously listless and imbecilic and, by gosh, achieved it.

Kutcher and Murphy deserve better than this leaden, misfire of a movie and so do audiences.

For a teen-geared trifle, this is feel-good fun with its heart in the right place.

In the end, a few genuinely funny moments aside, the script is simply too predictable and unvarying to earn the viewer's loyalty.

Naw, there isn't much substance, and the end result is never in doubt, but the laughs are there.

Like all too many marriages, this movie is more an endurance test than the test of true love it pretends to be.
