Rate-a-Trailer: What Happens in Vegas

Let me get this straight. Cameron Diaz is hot 'n' single. Ashton Kutcher is hot 'n' single. And like, they totally go crazy, hook up and get hitched in Vegas. Then they win $3 million in a jackpot. And this is a problem because...

...because—oops—they're married, and have to stick together or split the money, and because Queen Latifah and Dennis Miller gotsta get paid and slum it with side parts. Oh, Hollywood. What's up with you and your high concepts?

Romantic comedies are best when they don't have some lame-ass hook. The girl doesn't need to lose the guy in 10 days or whatever. I'd rather watch remakes of When Harry Met Sally and Jerry Maguire—even if Kutch 'n' Cam were playing—than suffer through another "conceptual" chick flick. Agreed?
