Honeymoon in Vegas

Honeymoon in Vegas (1992) is a romantic comedy directed by Andrew Bergman that you can watch online on iFILM. Jack Singer (Nicolas Cage) promised his dying mother he'd never get married — a vow he's been honouring for so long that his girlfriend Betsy (Sarah Jessica Parker) has run clean out of patience. They fly to Vegas to finally do it. That's when Tommy Korman (James Caan) sits down at the poker table.

Korman is a professional gambler with a very specific interest in Betsy — she looks exactly like his late wife. He engineers a $65,000 loss for Jack, then offers to clear the debt in exchange for one weekend with her in Hawaii. Jack, appalled at himself, agrees. What follows is Cage chasing his own fiancée across multiple time zones, with Pat Morita as a local power broker and a finale involving thirty-four skydiving Elvis impersonators that is precisely as deranged as it sounds.

Cage is at the particular frequency he operated on in his early nineties run: the anxious energy reads as comic rather than unhinged, and he and Parker are a genuinely funny pair. Caan plays it straighter than expected, which helps. Light, fast, and cheerfully ridiculous. Stream Honeymoon in Vegas (1992) online on iFILM.
