    A very simple straight forward and yes predictable Rom-Com film, but I have to say an enjoyable one at that. It has some good jokes and laugh out loud moments and although it's cheesey and you know what you are getting, it's still a fun watch.

    God, you could watch about anything when you have such an hangover. I mean it. But if you want to know the truth, it actually made me laugh and all. It really did.

    I really didn't wanna see this, because I don;t really like Cameron Diaz that much, but man am I glad I did. this was funny. It is very predictable but overall they had me rolling. I was actually in the mood for a comedy so that helped, but some of the stuff was just outrages. Th... ...( read more )

    Far from being the greatest movie in the world, What Happens in Vegas suprises due to it's predictable charm. Not so predictable are the excellent supporting roles of Bell and Corddry. They have more chemistry than the leads could ever summon up and their lines flirt with hilarit... ...( read more )

    this flick actually did have a few moments that made me laugh out loud, and it had a likeable quality to it, but at the same time it was horribly cliche and not worth another viewing. the supporting characters were very funny, but this was a very average movie and not really wor... ...( read more )

    Extremely predictable, but effective as it was laugh-out-loud funny. Ashton Kutcher and Cameron Diaz have great on-screen chemistry.

Should have stayed, not in Vegas, but elsewhere in the state of Nevada. How about those mountains where they are supposed to store the radioactive waste? full review

Armond White, The New York Press

Diaz and Kutcher restore the original, ebullient meaning of 'sex comedy'. They're fun to watch, which is a rare thing in this Zellweger, Clooney, Kidman, Gosling, Apatow world. full review

Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal

What Happens in Vegas... should have stayed in development -- forever. This ramshackle -- and occasionally repulsive -- farce doesn't even deliver on the minimal promise of its title; most of it takes... full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today

What Happens in Vegas refuses to take a gamble. Like a bleary-eyed gambler repeatedly tossing a pair of dice, it tiredly goes through the motions. full review

Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times

We all know what happens in Vegas -- and we know, without having to watch it, what happens in this movie. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune

    The outcome of What Happens In Vegas is obvious, but the journey there is a lot of fun.
