I respected Kelly Martin until I watched this movie. How stupid can she be? She has so many options. And if she can't think of them, her fiancé must be a pretty dumb lawyer because he should be giving her options.
Yes it's a comedy. Hence all the stupidity. So get past that. Trouble is, I don't like comedy based on pure stupidity.
I little past half way, it get's cute. Kelly Martin shines at times. "Corndog!" And the chemistry develops. There's still some little silly things. Silly isn't the same as stupid.
Plot summary
Straight-laced Jordan (Martin) is about to marry Peter (Snedeker), a clean-cut ambitious attorney. Before she walks down the aisle, Jordan and her best friends, Claire (Adrienne Frantz) and Jessica (Daphnee Duplaix), head to Vegas for a bachelorette party, because what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, right? But when Jordan wakes up the next morning unable to recall the night before, she panics when she finds she’s in movie star Matt's (Ethan Erickson) hotel suite with a gigantic diamond on her finger and a marriage certificate lying nearby. Before Jordan can have the marriage annulled and put this nightmare behind her, the impromptu wedding explodes into a publicity stunt fueled by Matt’s manager Eric (Bruce Nozick) to promote his latest movie. With her wedding day approaching, Jordan finds herself more confused than ever when she starts falling in love with the movie star she’s married to instead of the fiancé she thought was her perfect match.

Dumb and dumber
I find myself yelling at the TV and I'm usually the silent movie watcher
I shouldn't enjoy this movie as much as I do. I usually watch movies quietly, but this movie makes me want to yell at the TV. Mostly at her original fiancé because what kind of man lets his bride-to-be go off to Vegas without a rock on her important finger? Also, I yell at the bride for not telling him the truth from the start. I also want to yell at the barista for her mistake. I don't feel like I've spoiled anything, because it happens in the first 5 minutes (maybe 10) of the show. Frankly, I'm not surprised at the ending. I could see it coming from the start. It's not one I'd watch every day, but a few times a year for sure.
Marriage Caused By the Rocks? ***1/2
The last time I saw a movie where a woman woke up after a drunken spree and found herself married was Susan Hayward as Lillian Roth in "I'll Cry Tomorrow." (1955) That wasn't funny.
This picture is a comedy and it works very well. We see the agent allowing this marriage to go on because the guy is a movie star with a hit movie. We see how the woman, trying to get an annulment, has her life changed upside down.
Half-way through the film, her fiancé gives up and the rest of the film is devoted to our "annuled" couple finding themselves and growing into a wonderful relationship.
It can truly be said that love conquers all
