Baby Money

I sat down to watch the 2021 thriller "Baby Money" primarily because the movie had Danay Garcia on the cast list. But of course, since it was a movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I had to sit down and watch it.

And I will say that writers Mikhael Bassilli and MJ Palo actually managed to put together a storyline that actually proved entertaining. Sure, this wasn't a movie that revolutionized the thriller genre in any way, but it proved to be enjoyable and watchable.

The storyline is pretty straight forward, and while not really offering anything much new to the thriller genre, the writers had managed to construct the storyline in a way that it was actually entertaining. And "Baby Money" made for a fair watch.

"Baby Money" is driven by equal parts storyline and character gallery. I found the characters in the movie to be interesting and actually have enough contents to them to prove interesting. And that definitely counted for something in this movie.

The movie doesn't have a large cast ensemble, but that was actually not an issue, because the actors and actresses in the movie put on good performances. I will say that the lead performers Danay Garcia, Michael Drayer, Joey Kern and Taja V. Simpson actually carried the movie well with their performances and were good at bringing their characters to life on the screen.

While "Baby Money" is a watchable thriller, I feel that it is hardly a movie that I will be returning to watch a second time, as the movie just doesn't seem to have the contents to it to support more than just a single viewing.

My rating of directors Mikhael Bassilli and Luc Walpoth's movie lands on a six out of ten stars.
