Review of Mad Money

Mad Money (2008)
1/10
Beyond Mad to Furious

There are 189 synonyms for "Bad" in the English language according to a reliable thesaurus. Apply the other 188 and that barely begins to scratch the surface of this pointless "comedy"(?). The premise itself was a featherweight. If I can save one person from wasting time with this film, then I will consider my review worthwhile. How this script made it past the legendary pitfalls that can derail the submission, edit, and re-writing process, and then to secure the actresses that would agree to starring roles after reading it, is miraculous. Or could this have been one of those binding obligations that required a given number of movies to be made during a contract period with a no choice clause? Not even Diane Keaton, Queen Latifah, and Katie Holmes as the headliners could pull this one off while trying to work too hard to convince the viewer that it was funny.
