Critic Reviews
An exceedingly bright comedy that never makes you feel stupid for enjoying its brisk pacing, smart lines, sound construction and superb comic acting, not only from Ashton Kutcher but from Cameron Diaz and well-chosen No. 2 bananas Rob Corddry and Lake Bell.
Read the full reviewKutcher, who gives his most energized performance to date, and Diaz, darting between the caustic and shrill, look as if they're warming up to groovy hate sex, not love, which may be why the film goes flat the moment it turns friendly.
Read the full reviewSadly, about the nicest thing I can say about What Happens in Vegas is that I didn't hate it - although I suppose that's something.
Read the full reviewHokey and forced as it is, What Happens in Vegas eventually settles into a rhythm, maybe because Diaz and Kutcher actually look like they have fun together.
Read the full reviewThis two-seated star vehicle for top-billed Ashton Kutcher and Cameron Diaz wrings a respectable number of laughs from a formulaic scenario about attracted-opposites who bicker and back-stab their way toward happily-ever-aftering.
Read the full reviewComplain all you want about the affable slobs in Judd Apatow comedies; at least they're not tools.
Read the full reviewIt's a story that feels familiar at best, hackneyed at worst, which is surprising and disappointing, as director Tom Vaughan also made last year's "Starter for 10," a charming British coming-of-age comedy.
Read the full reviewIf you don't see where this is going, you've never seen a movie. Sorry it had to be this one.
Read the full reviewOnly Diaz shows spark because the actress knows how to simultaneously play nice and be a nasty character, thereby gaining audience sympathy. Everyone else hits one note, and it isn't nice.
Read the full reviewWhen it was over I felt vaguely embarrassed. I wasn't just leaving a movie theater. I was taking a walk of shame.
Read the full reviewWho wants to spend a minute on the Strip with the chance that there might be people as annoying as the characters played by Cameron Diaz and Ashton Kutcher walking around?
Read the full reviewBecause its director, Tom Vaughan, brings nothing of interest to the movie, including filmmaking, there isn't anything to say other than to note its insulting ugliness and ineptitude.

"I went and saw this movie with a friend and we both laughed the entire time. Cameron and Ashton are both very good looking and very funny and it was very enjoyable watching them go from hating each other to falling in love. Go see it and I bet you'll laugh!"
VERY FUNNY GOT A GOOD LAUGH OUT OF IT!
"This movies was awsome i havent laugh so hard at the movies for quite sometimes i cant even remember wich was the last movie that made me laugh so hard from the begging of the movie till the end of the movie.The story line was very good and very realistic, i been to Las Vegas and it's true people do drink like nuts over there I and yes some of them do get married. For me this movie was totaly worth the ten bucks i got a very good laugh out of it and it was a very very cute movie, i want to see it again and it gets 5 stars from me Ashton"
must go see
"Cameron and Ashton have great chemistry between them! The movie made me laugh and simle You walk out with a happy feeling."
awesome!
"Don't let those bad reviews fool you from people analyzing the movie too much about story line and acting. They were a great pair and had wonderful chemistry. This movie was awesome! Ashton and Cameron are really hot in this movie. Comedic acting is their calling - Ashton in his usual sexy, dumb self and cameron was beautiful, cool, and confident. It's definitely a must see!! I left the movie theatre with a smile on my face and I might go see it again just to watch Ashton."
Enjoyed this movie.
"This movie was cute, filled with laughs and ofcoarse the happy ending. I liked it, my daughter in law and grand daughter enjoyed it as well. Go see it, you will enjoy this movie. If you like cute comedies then this one is for you."
Would see this movie a 2nd, 3rd, and 4th time....hilarious!!
"I chose this movie for couple's night out. There were six of us going to see it and everybody was giving a difficult time for picking this movie. We were ALL laughing hysterically. It was so funny...not a single dull moment."
Funny and Cute!
"I thought it was funny, moved along well, and would buy it on dvd when it somes out. Ashton was charming and funny as always. He was especially good looking near the end, when he was dressed up. I'm not a huge fan of Cameron, but she is a unique looking actress who does well in these types of films. The ending was very funny; with her friend and his friend. Lots of laughs in the theatre I was in."
So Bad it gets no stars
"There is absolutely no chemistry between Ashton Kutsher and Cameraon Diaz. Two hot people with not a shred of attraction. This film fails on every level. A shame because in spite of its incredible premise, it had the potential for real sweetness if we cared even a little bit about the couple. This one should have stayed in Vegas."
