Free Money

I was reading a biography of Marlon Brando and this movie was portrayed by the author as a huge embarrassment for the actor. Yah, he had more than his share of celluloid bombs, but this isn't one of them. It reminds me of a Coen brothers film. And Brando's performance is hilarious and you can see him having fun with the character he plays. He looks like an overweight Captain Kangaroo. The other actors { Sheen , Sorvino, and Sutherland} are O.K. in their roles. It's Brando that you can't take your eyes off of. He only made one more film after this " The Score" and that was more of a cameo. This was his last starring role in a movie and it is worth watching.

I initially avoided this film even though I'd heard of it because I knew it had gone straight to video so thought it must be terrible. But then a friend and I caught some clips on YouTube and thought they were so hilarious, we decided to buy the DVD, and we're glad we did. We just watched the film tonight and thought it was hilarious. It's sometimes bizarre what films will get a general release and which ones--despite major stars--will go straight to video. If you're not a fan of the offbeat and quirky, you won't like this film, but if you are, you may just love it. Incidentally, another film I thought was hilarious and went straight to video was Peter O'Toole's THE FINAL CURTAIN. If you liked FREE MONEY then check out THE FINAL CURTAIN, both dark, quirky comedies that flew under the radar. Brando is like the Rolling Stones, in that the cliche attitude is that they both peaked before 1975...but when you actually take the time to check out their later work, you'll find the greatness is still largely intact. Brando really gives an original and energetic (despite his weight) and wonderful performance in his film.

Brando wasn't at his best.

Brando and Mira are the anchors. Sheen and Church create the turbulence that lifts the sails

Marlon Brando deserves an Oscar for his part of this movie. The humor is a little dark, but cleverly crafted and extremely funny. Loaded with a cast of stars, you'll wonder why you never heard of this movie before.

It was falsely list that Patrick Swayze was in it but, not. But it did turn out to be an okay movie anyway. I like some of the actors in it. Thank you could do business again.

better than most of the movies on here with unknown actors who can't read lines. a real movie.

Three stars for VHS-quality DVD transfer. It's letterboxed, not true widescreen, but the compression artifacts and lack of definition might make you forget about the black bars on all 4 sides of your widescreen display. Note that there are no English subtitles. Overall, it's a bit crude, and below "standard' for its date of manufacture.

Enjoyable story with a good cast and some nice cameo appearances. A good mix of good guys getting one over the bad guys with plenty of slapstick humour. A good film to watch on a rainy day with a good cup of tea and cake.

Love this film. It so funny. Must see.Perfect delivery an on time.

a really good fun film 5 stars.

Compré la película por un único motivo: Marlon Brando. Respecto a la película, que la había visto en el cine cuando se estrenó, no esperaba nada, por ello no me decepcionó como tal. Yo únicamente la he comprado para poder disfrutar de un genio de la interpretación como fue Marlon, así que no puedo recomendarla más que para fans irredentos como yo de Brando.

il film è molto originale;mi è piaciuta la impostazione tipo satira.Ottimi gli attori ed il regista,lo consiglierei a coloro che vogliono divertirsi.Cordiali saluti
