All About the Money

The makers of this movie might have gotten a little inspiration from the 1981 movie "High Risk", though this movie is played more for laughs and does go in its own direction eventually. But the movie doesn't really work with whatever angle you view it in. More often that not it has a somewhat mean-spirited tone, with graphic violence and a hostile attitude that make it hard to embrace the movie as a whole. That includes the humor as well. While there are a few mildly amusing jokes here and there, the humor as a whole seems written, performed, and directed by angry people. The script also has problems beyond the uncomfortable attempts at humor. There are a number of moments in the movie where linking footage (or entire scenes) seem to be missing, leaving a number of plot points quite confusing. It's all topped by a very obvious low budget, making the entire package come across as a cheap quickie. Watch "High Risk" instead.

First off I'll start this off by saying its not your funny big budget movies like American Pie & Superbad. Its a small budget movie that does a lot with what they had. You can tell in the begin the actors didn't know their characters very well, but somewhere around 20mins into everything changes. The movie creates these characters and their very funny to watch. They're dialogue facial expressions and everything start to work out. And you start to fall for the characters. The story at times feels like its making fun of fast & furious where it doesn't need to make sense but its a fun ride. And that's exactly what this movie is.

I hate spoilers so that's why I didn't mention the movie much, but the only thing I'll say is you gotta push through the first 10minutes a bit. You'll enjoy it in the end.

This comedy would have been much better without Blake Freeman in the cast. He should have stuck to directing.

I really don't understand why this film is surrounded around so many negative reviews? It's not meant to be taken seriously! The film itself has a solid storyline from start to finish with the filming leading on for a follow up film. The acting is food, its also action packed and the spoof comedy will have you crying with laughter. I would definitely be watching the follow up film if one is made

An American action comedy; A story about three American guys who venture to Columbia with the aim of capturing America's most wanted criminal for a dollar reward. The film starts well, establishing the characters, and there are several instances of genuine amusement. Unfortunately, it then descends into a cramming of drug-addled inaneness, racial crudeness and silly, predictable encounters with dangerous criminals showing no real menace. It transforms from funny buddy comedy to juvenile caper.
