What Happens in Vegas
When a heart‑broken Wall Street trader and a down‑on‑his‑luck carpenter are mistakenly paired in a Vegas hotel room, they impulsively marry, win a $3 million jackpot, and must decide whether love or money will save their unexpected union.
“Get Lucky”
Synopsis
Career woman Joy McNally and playboy Jack Fuller find themselves married after a night of drunken abandon during a wild vacation in Las Vegas. Faced with the sobering realization of their union, they are legally required to live as a married couple for a limited period of time. Their arrangement is driven by financial stakes, as a large sum of money is at risk depending on their compliance.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
A crew of 109+ credited
Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.

2008 · Box office
💰 Box-office hit — grossed 6.3× its budget
Why 2.5×?
Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
