Vegas like you know is a place where a lot of movies are based...and so is this...hmm... not really...but the main plot is in the 'Sin city' as it is called!
Directed by- Tom Vaughan
Starring -
Cameron Diaz[ the whole reason why I saw the movie:)))] as Joy Mc Nally
Ashton Kutcher- Jack Fuller
Rob Corddry- Hater [Jack's friend]
Lake bell- Tipper [ Joy's friend]
Jason Sudeikis- Mason
The movie begins with the break-up of Joy and Mason and on the other hand Jack being fired from his Dad's firm.
And they unknowingly decide to go Vegas for rejuvenation.
Then they meet, in a manner somehow similar to Bollywood I felt!
There is the whole climax...they actually get married following a night of frolic and debauchery and to top it all they win a lottery of $3millon as a jackpot.
Now is where the story actually gets its actually twists and turns. They are running up for a divorce as they dislike each other and yet want the money.
I am leaving you all with this suspense for you figure out what happens next!!
Tom Vaughan [ director] and Dana Fox [writer] have both done justice to the movie.
The timing of events and dialogues were good and apt.
Perfomance -
Cameron Diaz- is as usual good and very natural. But there she is old now and has to quit doing such young roles....or may be should put on a bit more make-up. Her age is reflected through out the movie. She looks like an elder sister to Ashton..who is in real 6 yrs younger than her.
From the times of 'In Her Shoes' in 2005 to now...she looks like a Mom. Cameron...head-up to your green room please!
Ashton Kutcher- Looks fantastic and has performed well too!! A full 10/10 to him!!
Rob Corddry- Has performed well...no qualms about him. He should have been a little less jumpy I felt and may be a little more like a man.
Lake Bell- never liked her for her looks...but does her part well.
Everyone else have done a neat job.
A good, 'keep your brain out of the cinema hall and come with a heart' kind of movie. Hillarious besides teaching us some essential lessons for life!! Somethings that are usually missing in the western lifestyles.
It is about bonding and caring and most of all Love!!
Background score is good. In all a nice enjoyable movie that you want to watch as a break from other monotonous daily dramas!!
Have fun watching and let me know how it was.
Take care
Love
