More Detail:
In HONEYMOON IN VEGAS, Jack Singer (Nicholas Cage) has a problem: his fiancee Betsy wants to get married, but Jack’s deathbed promise to his mother (to avoid marriage) and his chosen line of work (as a private eye who trails spouses) have paralyzed him. Realizing he is losing Betsy, Jack spirits her away to Las Vegas for a painless wedding. Unfortunately, their plans are complicated by millionaire Tommy Corman, who is transfixed by Betsy’s resemblance to his late wife. He invites Jack to a poker game and takes him for $64,000. Then, he offers Jack the option that he could be let off the hook if he let Corman have Betsy for the weekend–just for companionship. Corman then takes his plan to another level by taking Betsy to Hawaii. This drives Jack nuts and leads to a comical cross-country pursuit.
HONEYMOON IN VEGAS has a predictable happy ending, but from beginning to end it ridicules marriage. To its credit, HONEYMOON IN VEGAS does show that Jack and Betsy’s relationship is unsatisfying as they remain unmarried. Unfortunately, Jack and Betsy’s sexual relationship is presented without apology, as if it were normal and inevitable. Don’t mistake HONEYMOON IN VEGAS for a family movie.
