Soooo Cool
I've seen this movie for about a dozen times and I enjoyed it every time. It's just a pefect romantic comedy. I mean so many hilarious jokes. And Ashton Kutcher must be the funniest actor around these days. I mean he's just perfect for this role. And there is also beautiful Brittany Murphy. She's one of the prettiest actresses and she is also very funny. And besides that the chemistry between these two is jus perfect. The story is about a newlyweds who go on their honeymoon to Europe. We can say a honeymoon from hell. They brake up there, but then end up together in the end (of course they do, it's a romantic comeday). I mean jusr a great movie.

MediaGab Review
Ashton Kutcher and Brittany Murphy star in a hilarious comedy about a honeymoon that goes bad. Everyone thinks they are to young to marry but they convince them otherwise and walk down the isle. They embark on a European honeymoon. But when they get kicked out of a castle in France and things start to spiral downward from there.

Just Married is one of those stupid comedies with a lot of slap-stick stunts. It was done better then I thought. The story line, yes there was a story, made sense and actually moved the story along.

Don't be fooled by the Media Critics bad reviews of this movie, in my opinion they don't have a sense of humor and wouldn't know a comedy even if they saw it twice. I rate this movie a 3 out of 5 because it was funny comedy and because I don't feel it should score as high as Lord of the Rings. 3 is a good rating.

Cutesy and clichè
"Just Married" is a painfully cheesy movie that's almost too lighthearted and cute. Ashton Kutcher and Brittany Murphy play a Romeo and Juliet-esqe couple that has been repeated in so many movies, its sickening - he's the classic dorky sports fan and child of middle-income parents, and she's the daughter of some billionare whose profession we never learn. Her parents would have rather married her to the snobby Peter Prentice, a dull antagonist who is more of a roadblock then an actual character. Anyway, the cute couple get married and jet off to Europe where their lies to eachother and unbelievable circumstances (they are kicked out of a hotel after they ruin the circuit system by trying to plug in some kind of sex toy) hinder their enjoyment of the perfect honeymoon. The movie was worsened by bad jokes, boring characters, and clichè storylines. I think I considered laughing about once.

The terrible thing about this movie was how unbelievable everything was. Every character was able to pull a beautiful and heartwarming monologue out of thin air. Most of the speeches didn't even fit the character's personality, for instance, Kutcher's character gave at least two of these monologues, and each one was one of the best parts of the film's script. Too bad they came out sounding forced and awkward, since the character isn't supposed to be the brightest bulb in the box.

Finally, the characters were painfully underdeveloped. We don't know whether or not Murphy's character likes being rich, nor can we ever really discern whether she's a rich-girl ditz or an art-loving intellectual. We never find out what Murphy's father does, and although a good, strong father-son relationship is hinted at between Kutcher's character and his father, we never know for sure. Finally, an attractive blonde was constantly around Murphy's character...was she a sister? friend? cousin? It nagged me through the whole movie.

So, why not 1 star instead of 2? Well, Murphy and Kutcher proved to be excellent actors with amazing chemistry together. Murphy especially lit up the screen with her dazzling personality and cute, scratchy voice. Kutcher will be forever typecast as the dumb guy, but its a character that suits him well. I found them to be the only highlights of the movie.

Bottom line: This movie kept me awake. It was fast paced and mildly enjoyable, but lacked anything fresh or different. See it if you like teen chick fliks, not if your idea of a movie is one that will keep you thinking.
