Ashton Kutcher does it again
I've liked Ashton Kutcher since that '70s show. I've loved Ashton Kutcher since Just Married. After showing the capability to do also serious roles in the movies The Butterfly Effect and The Guardian I made a decision: I was going to see every single one of the movies Ashton's in. Even with huge expectations, I've not been let down yet.
What Happens in Vegas was not an exception. I literally laughed my way through the movie and so did all of the movie theatre with me.
The movie is about a young man struggling to get by in his life. After being fired (by his dad) he travels to Vegas to blow off some steam with his best friend. What happens in Vegas next is unexpected to the characters in the movie, but also to the audience. The best thing about watching the movie was that every plot twist was unexpected and unpredictable.
Kutcher hit it off with Cameron Diaz and even though I don't usually like her, I did so in the movie. The dialogue was funny and entertaining. Kutcher has the ability to pull off crazy lines and scenes and make it work like no one else could.
Funny and entertaining would be the best words to describe to whole movie, too. I really don't find anything bad to say about this movie and I recommend it to everyone, especially as a date movie.
