What Happens in Vegas
During a wild vacation in Las Vegas, career woman Joy McNally and playboy Jack Fuller come to the sober realization that they have married each other after a night of drunken abandon. They are then compelled, for legal reasons, to live life as a couple for a limited period of time. At stake is a large amount of money.

Jack wins three million dollars using Joy's quarter
Jack and Joy's sabotage attempts become more elaborate
The film drops from the entertaining jackpot setup to its lowest point during the mean-spirited pranks war, then recovers when genuine attraction emerges at the work retreat.
Reviews show a typical rom-com arc that starts promisingly in Vegas, dips significantly during the cruel domestic warfare middle section, then recovers somewhat for a predictable but sweet ending. Critics consistently praise the chemistry between Kutcher and Diaz while criticizing the formulaic plot and mean-spirited pranks. The film delivers exactly what audiences expect from the genre, nothing more or less.
