The Billion Dollar Baby

If you love a fresh take on classic tropes, Billion Dollar Baby on ShortMax delivers just that-wrapped up in a fun, fast-paced vertical format!

Kirby shines as Eliza, bringing both strength and heart to her role. It's a bit different from some of her past characters, yet still has that signature heroine energy we love. And what's a fairytale without a scheming stepsister? Robyn Cantrell as Lisette gives us all the devious antics, while Zachary Rist's Ryan brings the drama as the stepbrother trying to claim what isn't his. Of course, Cameron Porras as Ethan holds his own, making for a dynamic balance between the leads.

Without spoiling too much-because where's the fun in that?-expect a little girl saves boy, boy saves girl action and a satisfying conclusion where everything falls into place. It's a quick, entertaining watch with all the right ingredients: a touch of romance, a dash of rivalry, and just the right amount of drama to keep you hooked!

⭐ A modern-day fairytale with all the twists and turns-catch it on ShortMax now!

Cameron Porras was so good in this movie. I really enjoyed the characters except for Ethan (Porras) uncle Tony. He was horrible and really detracted from the movie itself. The lead girl is really good and played a good role. To not give out any spoilers it was much more than a love, revenge, hate movie and is worth the watch if you can get over uncle Tony and his acting. The chemistry between Eliza and Ethan is really good. The lead actress reminds me a lot of a young Sally Field and I really like the way she handled situations that arose. I think you will see more of Cameron in verticals as his acting is better than most leads.
