Plot:
On her deathbed, a mother makes her son promise never to get married, which scars him with psychological blocks to a commitment with his girlfriend. They finally decide to tie the knot in Vegas, but a...( read more

For some reason there's a creepy Dracula analogy floating through this. Kind of expected more from Bergman.
One of the funniest movies I have seen. Cage, Parker, Caan, Boyle, Morita...geez, everyone is perfect. The flying Elvises are wild! All the Elvis impersonators are over the top. Watch it, too funny.
wow i have just seen this movie 4 the 1st time n think that this is a good comedy movie 2 watch...this has got a good cast of actors/actressess throughout this movie...i think that nicholas cage is great (imn a huge fan of nicholas cage tbh)....this is a good movie 2 watch..i think that the director of this movie had done a good job of directing this movie because you never know what 2 expect throughout this movie because its really funny as well...this is a good movie n its really enjoyable n funny as well..i think that danny devito is really good in this movie as well...
Erroneously named Honeymoon In Vegas, this is actually about a wedding. Or the lack there of. This is no classic, and even looks a bit 'TV movie' despite the dazzling locations, but it is very funny and quite exciting at times and if you like Elvis music, you'll love the soundtrack - although every cover version lacks something.
It's a shame the premise is shaky. Jack has a phobia of getting married because his mother made him promise never to tie the knot (that's the opening scene that leads into a nifty cartoon title sequence). Betsy (Sarah Jessica Parker wobbling between convincingly angry, and unconvincingly reading lines for the rest of the time) wants to marry him. So far so good. They go to Vegas to get it over with. Only here professional gambler Tommy sees Betsy, the spitting image of his dead wife, and decides he wants to marry Betsy. So he tricks Jack into owing him $65,000, and gives him the get out clause of letting Tommy spend the weekend with Betsy. This is where the plot runs into its believability problems. Jack bets money he doesn't have - is he really this stupid? Tommy veers between very nasty and having a genuine love for his wife, although this does balance out at creep, so that sort of works for the villain. Betsy actually starts to like Tommy - why doesn't she find him creepy? So you could get easily frustrated. But it's better just to relax and watch Jack desperately try to get Betsy back.
Basically, this is a lot of fun, but the plot needs tightening.
Not the greatest film. I think the clunky choice of actors was a soreness through out the whole film. Don't get me wrong, they're all fair actors, just not best together.
Can't count how many times I saw this movie, not because I like it but because my mother does...
Anyway, it's very rewatchable, sometimes fynny, got great views of Hawaiian islands and not less gorgeous Nic Cage who is looks reall young.
Watch it if you like romantic comedies.
This is a pretty average movie. Nicolas Cage and Sarah Jessica Parker have no chemistry and James Caan is totally creepy, but I give this flick more stars because of the following lines:
Jack: Do you know what a straight flush is? It's like...unbeatable.
Betsy: Like unbeatable is not unbeatable.
Jack: Hey, I knooow that now, okay?
Betsy: I?m a whore, Jack! You made me into a whore! You brought me to Vegas and you turned me into a whore, Jack!
I remember seeing this as a wee kid and it being really funny. Now, it's just hokey. Nic Cage does some ridiculous over-acting!
Found this movie to be quite good after thinking it would be rubbish and enjoyed it even though it was very old.
If you are a fan of SJP, she is smoking hot in this movie. Otherwise, there are no attributes in watching this.
8-11-07 --Classic tale of the guy that is afraid to commit. Takes his girl to Vegas to get married and loses a lot of money gambling. Long story short He is frantic and afraid of losing her and flies high with some impersonating Elvis-i. You think Nic Cage had anything to do with Elvis being so prominant throughout this movie? He is a huge fan!
This got pretty good reviews, but I don't recall liking it much. I like Caan, but I'm not a fan of Parker and Cage is always a borderline commodity. Seem to recall it dragged in the second half.
Rather too reliant on comedy Elvises for its laughs, and far too few laugh out loud moments, its still likeable enough light entertainment
How can you not like a movie that features "The Flying Elvises" parachuting out of a plane over Las Vegas.
Is it me or Nicolas Cage has a bit of an obsession with Elvis? He dresses up like him in half his movies, the other half he talks about him... not to mention that other small detail: HE MARRIED ELVIS'S DAUGHTER! (Movie's decent... Caan's the best part, playing yet ANOTHER variation of Sonny Corleone, but oh well)
James Caan are good in many things, but he was mean in this one! He stole Nicolas Cage fianceé! The fianceé is played by Sarah Jessica Parker, and she's alright. But I was disapoointed in this movie..
Synopsis: Writer-director Andrew Bergman is capable of funny, funny stuff, but this movie runs out of jokes long before it runs out of comic ideas. The result is a series of comedy concepts that never get past the one-liner stage and are distinctly unsatisfyin...
Funny at first, the the flying Elvises at the end is pretty good, but the plot if awful and the jokes go stale before the movie is even halfway over..
i HATE sarah jessica parker! she is one of the worst actors every and she ruins every show they put her in
who wouldn't want their true love to rescue them jumping out of a plane and parachuting into Vegas in an Elvis costume?
Very enjoyable comedy with Nicolas Cage on top-comedic form. James Caan is also great as the scheming bad-guy.
The time to fly from Hawaii to Las Vegas seems like it should be longer than it takes in this movie. I like Nicolas Cage's performance and the flying Elvises, and Sarah Jessica Parker looks cute in her showgirl outfit. I drove my kids crazy by saying, "She has no purse. Where does she keep her contact lens case?"
Another Vegas show. This one's cool though because it has the "Flying Elvis's" in it. I just LOVE The King!!!
un gars qui voullait se marier peut pas pcq'il a promis a ca mere mourante qu'il se marierait pas .... louche.. ca me dit rien
