As sweet as Just Married can sometimes be, just as often it stoops to crude and mean-spirited gags.

Reviews for Just Married
Ditches the expected route and comes out surprisingly original and endearing.
01/10/03
An ungainly and witless comedy.
01/10/03
Top CriticThe film's insistence that these two kids belong together for eternity should persuade only the credulous and unmarried. (I give them six months, personally.)
01/10/03
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.
01/10/03
The two wonderfully likeable stars steal your heart in every silly scene.
01/10/03
The cast must work overtime to overcome musty jokes that possess the unmistakable scent of a rented tuxedo.
01/10/03
If I had been a wedding guest, instead of throwing rice, I would have thrown something more substantial - like a 10-pound ashtray.
01/10/03
None of (the) problems impede the movie's funny concept and fun performances -- and that's what counts.
01/10/03
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.
01/10/03
A hit-on-the-head-style comedy of excruciation, with jokes on such always-reliable topics as a rich lady named *****, huge, electrical marital aids, body cavity searches, getting hit on the nose, getting hit on the head, and getting hit on the head again.
01/10/03
The sort of eighties teensploitation falderal that wasn't good to begin with and is somewhere just north of repugnant now.
01/10/03
I liked this movie, which is strange, because it isn't very good.
01/09/03
Just dreadful.
01/09/03
Of interest only as a product of such generic blandness as to be absolutely airtight: not a whiff of originality or real life has been allowed to spoil its plastic perfection.
01/09/03
Top CriticThe director, Shawn Levy, and the screenwriter, Sam Harper, hardly overtax themselves, contriving to make these young lovers bump into as many walls and doors as possible to wring laughs from a feeble premise.
01/09/03
Top CriticIdeal for those who think that someone getting hit in the face every two minutes is absolutely as good as comedy gets.
01/09/03
By the time the newlyweds end up in Venice (Italy, not California, though it was probably filmed there), the story's gone so flat that you may feel like a browbeaten spouse trapped in a loveless marriage.
01/09/03
Clumsily funny!
01/09/03
Despite the irrepressible cuteness of this real-life couple in "Just Married," this is one marriage that just isn't going to last.
