^Just Married ,,
Starring Brittany Murphy and
Ashton Kutcher
Directed by Shawn Levy
20th Century Fox
“Just Married” may not appeal to a group of
business executives or soccer moms, but to an
audience of college students, the humor is not
lost. The script lacks sophistication and the end
is more than predictable; however, "Just
Married” is united by a cast that promises
laughs to an audience who expects no more
than that.
The movie opens with the couple, obviously
fed up with each other, arriving home from their
European honeymoon ready to call it quits.
Through a flashback, the audience is caught up
on everything that has led up to that point.
Sarah McNerney (Brittany Murphy), the
daughter of a multi-millionaire, and Tom
Leezak (Ashton Kutcher), a traffic reporter who
works the graveyard shift and has an interest in
sports, are all over each other from the minute
they meet. As the story goes, not long after the
two have met, they move in together and, soon
afterward, they get married despite warnings
from their families and friends.
To make up for being too tired to have sex on
their wedding night, the two decide to try for it in
the airplane restroom. However, in the process,
Tom gets his foot stuck in the toilet and then
knocks out the impatient flight attendant when
opening the door. From that point on, the story is
composed of petty fights and reconciliations tha
eventually escalates to an argument that seems if
have ended the marriage before it began.
The movie would have failed if the attemf:
at sentimentality had actually succeeded
because the plot line is built around the joke'
The audience not only shares in the laughter
with Sarah and Tom as one misfortune after
another tests their marriage, but also laughs:
them, as writer Sam Harper makes them the
butt of some of the jokes. While at times itca;
be crude, for the most part "Just Married”lire
up to the name of its genre, romantic comedy,
in an appealing way.
Even though much of the humor has been
recycled from other movies, Ashton and Murpr
offer it with a sugary sweet twist. Unlike most’
the characters in movies of its kind, they havei
chemistry on screen that will make audience
members care whether they reunite.

Singer Bobby Brown
released from hospital
ATLANTA (AP) - R&B singer
Bobby Brown was released
from the hospital Wednesday,
one day after being transferred
there from jail.
He also was released from jail
custody under a "good time"
policy that reduces sentences by
25 percent for good behavior.
Brown, the husband of pop
diva Whitney Houston, had
been serving an eight-day jail
sentence since last Friday, after
pleading guilty to a 1996
drunken driving charge.
NEWS IN BRIEF
The singer had been taken
from the county jail to Grady
Memorial Hospital Tuesday
morning. DeKalb County
Sheriff's Office spokeswoman
Mikki Jones has declined to
provide details, saying
inmates' medical information
is confidential.
Brown, who was put on two
years' probation, also was
ordered to perform community
service and not to drive for a year.
He was arrested Nov. 7 on
charges of possessing less than
an ounce of marijuana, speed
ing and having no driver's
license or proof of insurance.
After posting bond in Atlanta
he was transferred to tli*
neighboring DeKalb Countyia
to face the older charges.
Brown, 33, has had seven
brushes with the law, indudir;
a 26-day stint in a Florida jail-
2000 for violating parole om
1996 drunken driving convi;
tion by refusing a drug test.
In a recent interview wit'
ABC's Diane Sawyer, Brov, r
said he smoked marijuana, ta
did so to control his bipolai
condition. In the same inter
view, Houston acknowledge:
taking cocaine and pills an:
smoking marijuana.
