Just Married
Director: Shawn Levy
Actors: Ashton Kutcher, Brittany Murphy, Christian Kane
PlotA young and happy couple, freshly graduated from college, impulsively decides to tie the knot after a whirlwind romance. Despite their deep love for each other, they come from very different worlds. The groom, an aspiring radio personality with a laid-back approach to life, clashes with the bride's upscale, privileged background. Their starkly contrasting social backgrounds and lifestyles set the stage for a series of comedic misunderstandings and cultural clashes that test their relationship from the start. As they embark on their new life together, they naively envision a blissful future, untouched by the realities of their differences.
Their honeymoon in Europe, intended to be the ultimate romantic getaway, quickly devolves into a disaster riddled with one unfortunate event after another. The couple's dream vacation turns into a test of their love and patience, as they navigate a series of misadventures that include language barriers, local customs, and a cramped, uncomfortable hotel room. These humorous yet challenging experiences expose the couple's naivety about the world and each other, sparking tension and unexpected dilemmas. Their journey becomes not just a physical trip but a deep dive into their relationship, forcing them to confront whether their love can transcend the comedic chaos and mishaps of their honeymoon.
