What Happens in Vegas (2008)
Director: Tom Vaughan
Movie review
From Time Out New York
Sold as a pitch without any signs of further development, What Happens in Vegas is the front half of a tourism slogan slapped onto two Hollywood hotties. Fans of the studio-manufactured screwball duo “Camer-ton” (“Ash-ron”?) will laugh with overcompensating glee at how their inebriated nuptials lead to a surprise $3 million jackpot at the slots, followed by a head-scratching stay-married-or-lose-everything legal contrivance. Those more wedded to reality will find that this crapshoot of a comedy turns up snake eyes.Author: Stephen Garrett
